Compressors

The air compressor is a universal device for different types of equipment

An air compressor is a multifunctional and complex installation, the main purpose of which is to compress air masses, gases and other gaseous substances. Compressed air is necessary for the operation of equipment of various purposes: from pneumatic construction tools to machinery in car repair shops. The installations operate on the principle of changing the volume of the workspace, accumulate air in the receiver and send it to the connected units. But the compression mechanism is radically different, depending on the type of compressors: reciprocating and screw devices work differently.

Types of air compressors

The Salutech company offers to buy air compressors for both a small enterprise and a large plant. Compressors have a large resource during round-the-clock operation, are economical in terms of electricity consumption, undemanding in maintenance, and environmentally friendly.

The following types of compressors can be purchased from the company:

You can buy an air compressor of two types:

Screw – an assembly that works by rotating the rotors. The rotor elements increase the pressure in the working area by moving the air masses due to the operation of the engine. The passing air is compressed between two screw rotors. Advantages: high productivity combined with economy (low oil consumption), good operating pressure characteristics (up to 14 bar), ease of operation, low noise, extended service life, rarely in need of repair.

Piston – a compressor that operates by the movement of one or two pistons. The main working elements are set in motion by the power unit through the crankshaft, which forces them to move progressively in the upward direction, then downwards. It is the most common equipment in industry and in everyday life. Advantages: low price, easy maintenance and operation, large selection of models.

Depending on the purpose and scope of application, it is not difficult to choose a suitable air compressor: a budget, but low-performance piston unit or a screw more productive device.

Areas of application of air compressors

The units are widely used in various industries, at large enterprises and factories, in the construction industry, in repair shops and even in everyday life. There are quite budget-priced models that home craftsmen purchase for personal use. Equipment with different technical characteristics, differing in principle of operation, performance and device, is used in specific areas and industries.

Areas of application of compressor units:

• At vehicle maintenance stations. The air compressor is suitable for wrenches, sandblasters, blowers, tire pumping equipment.
• In construction, during road works to connect specialized units with pneumatics.
• In industries of various directions: from the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries to the oil and gas, machine-building and metallurgical sectors (cement, flour mills).
• At all enterprises where pneumatic tools and equipment are used.
• At home, because an air compressor can be bought at a low price, but with lower performance.
