The PVC pipe is load rated up to 370 psi according to what is written on it and what I have been able to find in other resources. I heard that we cannot pressurize it. The compressed air reservoir will be maintained at 60 psi. Each student is responsible for their own pneumatic umbilical. The umbilical is equivalent to a resistor in an electrical network.
Students are free to calculate the flow for their own umbilical using appropriate equations.
As always, students are responsible for making their machines appropriately robust. After the round is complete, the electrical control system will be powered up as necessary so that machines may be removed from the contest table. The pneumatic control system will be neutral after the contest, so any pneumatic actuators can be manually adjusted. I assume it would count against our weight limit. Any additional electronic components will count towards the weight limit.
