Role and Uses of Air Compressors

Air compressors can be used to provide power by compressing air and have great uses in industry.

Air compressor is a device that compresses gas into high pressure gas, the main purpose of which is to compress air into high pressure gas and store it so that it can be released for use when needed. In the manufacturing process, many machines and equipments need high pressure air to complete their work, such as painting, mixing, sandblasting, pumping and so on. Air compressors can provide high pressure gas for these machines and equipment.

Air compressors can be used to clean machines and equipment, workplaces and vehicles, etc. by spraying air through a gun to remove dirt and dust from the surface of objects. Air compressors can be used in medical equipment, such as in operating rooms, where doctors can use them to provide high-pressure gas to clean wounds.

Air compressors can be used in air-conditioning systems to compress refrigerant into high-pressure gas so that it can flow through the air-conditioning system to achieve a cooling or heating effect. Air compressors can also be used in gas transportation, high pressure filling, and gas storage.

Precautions for using an air compressor

1. Before using an air compressor, you should check whether the gas piping, joints and air pressure gauge are intact and undamaged.

2, in use, should be in accordance with the rated pressure of the equipment to operate, do not overpressure use.

3, before starting the air compressor, should check whether the oil level of the oil pool is normal, whether the lubrication system is working properly.

4, in the operation of the air compressor, should pay attention to observe the reading of the air pressure gauge, to avoid air pressure is too high or too low.

5, when stop using the air compressor, you should turn off the air source switch, and then turn off the power switch.

6, in the cleaning of the air compressor, should use a special cleaning agent, and in accordance with the instructions for the use of cleaning agent.

7, often check whether the air compressor filter and atomizer and other parts need to be replaced or maintained.
