EngineAIR Piston Air Compressor
Reciprocal compressors are mostly suitable for small compressed air requirements; one-stage compressors for pressures up to about 800 kPa, while several stage versions can produce up to 30,000 kPa.
Operation should be intermittent. An air-cooled reciprocal compressor's load level must not exceed 60%. After 2 minutes of compression, the compressor must rest for at least 1.5 minutes. The total compression time pre day should be kept to a maximum of approx. 4 hours.
