Air Compressors Types and Accessories


 The device that converts energy through the method of air compression into kinetic energy that can trigger large blasts of air when needed is called an air compressor. Power usually comes from a diesel engines, an electric motors, or gasoline engines. Air compressors are popular and used in a variety of industries for the safe, clean, and convenient use of air. Air compressor types can be classified based on positive displacement or negative displacement. They are as follows:

Piston compressors or reciprocating compressors: These are the most common type of positive displacement compressors. Power ranges from fractional to very high. The air is fills into the chamber and then the volume of the chamber is reduced, creating compression and thus releasing energy. The internal components include valves, cylinders, crankshafts, pistons, and housing blocks.

Centrifugal compressors: This is not a positive displacement compressor, it uses impellers rotating at a very high speed, it accelerates the air, and then uses the diffuser to break up the air. This air compressor uses dynamic compression method, which uses speed to increase pressure. Centrifugal compressors have several impeller / diffuser combinations as well as intercoolers to cool the air between stages.

Rotary Screw Compressors: This type when the air compressor operates by filling air into the cavity section between the two spirally connected screws and their housing. As the screws turn, the volume decreases, which increases the air pressure. These compressors also add oil to the storage and compression areas. The mechanism cools, lubricates and creates a seal between the screws and the housing wall, reducing internal leakage.

Rotary Sliding vane compressor. This positive displacement compressors have a stator, a rotor and 8 blades. Here, too, oil is injected into the air along the stator walls to cool the air and lubricate the blades and bearings. A short circuit is created between the blades and the stator wall. As soon as the rotor spins, compression is created and the volume increases dramatically.

Many accessories are required to operate an air compressor. They not only guarantee long-term use of the machine, but also lead to quick recovery in the event of repairs. Some of the most common air compressor accessories are system controllers, air and water aftercooler, battery compartment kit, compressor air filters, compressor separator kits, compressor oil, flywheel, compressor valves, motor driven compressor controls, suction filters and mufflers, low oil protection, pneumatic tank manifolds, portable air tank conversion kits, Positive displacement blower accessories, etc.
