Which elements are included in the Air Supply System Components?

• A. Compressor, governor, tanks, and lines
• B. Hydraulic pump and reservoir
• C. Fuel pump and filter
• D. Ignition coil and spark plug

Answer: (A)

Air power is produced and managed by parts that generate, regulate, store, and deliver compressed air. The compressor does the work of increasing the air’s pressure. The governor monitors system pressure and turns the compressor on or off to keep pressure within safe, usable limits. Tanks store the compressed air so there’s a ready supply when demand rises, and the lines (pipes and hoses) carry that air from storage to the devices that need it. Together, these elements provide a complete air supply path from generation through distribution to actuation.

The other options belong to different systems: a hydraulic pump and reservoir are for hydraulic power, a fuel pump and filter are for the fuel system, and an ignition coil and spark plug are part of the ignition system.
