Air Compressor selection (how to choose Air Compressor?)

There are many types of Air Compressors and various types. For the majority of users, how to choose an Air Compressor is not only a matter of rational use of funds, but also directly related to the economy and reliability of the normal operation of the Air Compressor in the future. Therefore, the choice of Air Compressor should be considered from three aspects: economy, reliability and safety. When choosing a good Air Compressor, pay attention to the following points.

1) The level of exhaust pressure and exhaust volume should be considered. The exhaust pressure of the aerodynamic compressor for a single purpose is 0.7MPa (the old standard is 0.8MPa), and the displacement is one of the main parameters of the Air Compressor. The air volume of the Air Compressor should be selected in accordance with the required displacement. Match, and leave a margin of 10%. When selecting the exhaust volume, the peak usage and trough usage should also be considered.

2) Consider the occasion and conditions of gas use. If the gas use site is narrow, you should choose the vertical type; if the gas use site has a long-distance change (more than 500m), you should consider the mobile type; if the use site cannot supply power, you should choose Diesel engine driven type; if there is no circulating water in the application, you should choose air-cooled type. Regarding the two cooling methods of air cooling and water cooling, many users have a wrong understanding, thinking that water cooling is better, but it is not. The air-cooled type accounts for more than 90% of the small compressors at home and abroad. This is because the air-cooled type is simple in design and does not require water when used. There are four fatal shortcomings of water-cooled coil compressors: a complete water-cooling system is required, which requires a large investment;

3 ) Compressed air quality should be considered. Generally, the compressed air produced by an Air Compressor contains a certain amount of lubricating oil and a certain amount of water. In some occasions, oil and water are prohibited. At this time, not only attention should be paid to the selection of the compressor, but additional accessories should be added if necessary.

4) Consider the safety of compressed air operation. An Air Compressor (also called an Air Compressor) is a machine that works under pressure. It is accompanied by temperature rise and pressure when working. The safety of its operation should be given priority. The country implements a standardized "two certificates" system for the production of compressors, namely the compressor production license and the pressure vessel production license (gas storage tank). Usually, the product quality assurance system of certified manufacturers is perfect, and there will be no major quality problems
