air-powered
Uses pressurized atmosphere
Air-powered describes machines or devices that run on compressed air rather than electricity, fuel, or manual force: air-powered nail guns, air-powered tools.
The term is straightforward and technical, appearing mainly in descriptions of industrial equipment, pneumatic systems, and novelty items like air-powered rockets.
