Buy and sell used air compressors online
Due to the fact that air as a resource is safe and clean, air compressors have a wide range of uses for leisure and maintenance in a multitude of environments (at home, in businesses, etc.).
Structurally, an air compressor comes in the form of a device that converts power from an electric motor/ diesel or gasoline engine into potential energy accumulated in pressurized or, in other words, compressed air. The air is forced into a storage tank and the pressure increases. As soon as the tank pressure rises to its upper limit the air compressor stops operating. Then, the compressed air is stored in the tank to be used further. After having utilized all the kinetic energy of the air in certain applications, the air compressor turns on again to re-pressurize the tank.
Types of air compressors
Air compressors are classified based on the delivered pressure:
- low-pressure compressors;
- medium-pressure compressor;
- high-pressure compressors.
Another classification involves the characteristics of the design and principles of operation:
- rotary-screw compressors;
- turbo compressors.
