Re: Number of air accumulators allowed

4 Clippard Tanks. The 2 in the KOP + 2 additional.

Quote:
<R01> Energy used by FIRST Robotics Competition ROBOTS, (i.e., stored at the start of a
MATCH), shall come only from the following sources:
 Electrical energy derived from the onboard 12V and 7.2V batteries
 Compressed air stored in the pneumatic system, stored at a maximum pressure of 120 PSI
in no more than four Clippard Instruments tanks. Extraneous lengths of pneumatic tubing
shall not be used to increase the storage capacity of the air storage system.
 A change in the altitude of the ROBOT center of gravity.
 Storage achieved by deformation of ROBOT parts. Teams must be very careful when
incorporating springs or other items to store energy on their ROBOT by means of part or
material deformation. A ROBOT may be rejected at inspection if, in the judgment of the
inspector, such items are unsafe.
