Topic:- Air compressor
•Rotary compressors:-
Rotary screw compressors in sizes from small (in cars) up
to 500-600 hp are very popular because of their high
reliability and low maintenance requirements. •Centrifugal
compressors are often used in sizes ranging from about
150 hp up to over 10,000 hp. The larger size models are
relatively low in cost and small in physical size compared
to reciprocating compressors.
•Reciprocating compressors:-
These are commonly used today only in sizes up to 25
hp. These compressors are often used for light-duty
applications or in startup industrial enterprises because
they are reliable and low cost.
Air Compressor Safety Tips.
Tools:-
Ensure that the machine is plugged into a
properly grounded outlet. If your machine is plugged into
an outlet without the properly grounded electrical circuits,
there may be damage to the electrical panel of the
compressor as well as the possibility of a fire.
Consult the owners manual for the recommended
extension cord use. Using a longer extension cord than
recommended can result in a loss of power, and can
cause damage to the compressors electrical panel and/or
motor.
