Main Uses of Air Compressors

There are many uses of air compressors, what are the main uses?

Air compressor, which is a device capable of compressing gas.

It is a device that converts the mechanical energy of a prime mover (usually an electric motor) into pneumatic energy.

It is a pneumatic generating device for compressed air. It is a machine that uses the principle of air compression to make compressed air exceed atmospheric pressure.

An air compressor is a device used to compress gas, and the air compressor is similar in structure to a water pump.

Air compressors are widely used in all walks of life in industrial production, and because of their wide range of uses and functions, they can be involved in various fields.

The main purpose of air compressor

1. The air compressor can provide power by compressing air

Many industries use compressed air to provide a certain amount of power for production.

After compressed air can be used as power, machinery and pneumatic tools, as well as control instruments and automation devices, etc.,

as small as the drive of various pneumatic machinery, as large as The defense industry and the ups and downs of submarines all use air compressors to transform power.

It can be seen that this use of air compressors is the most commonly used.

2. The air compressor can be used in the refrigeration industry and the separation of mixed gases by compressing gas

In the artificial refrigeration industry, the gas can be compressed, cooled, expanded and liquefied by the air compressor,

so as to achieve the effect of refrigeration and air conditioning; in addition, for the mixed gas,

the air compressor can also separate the various components of the gas through the separation device.

Separated to obtain various degrees of various colors of gas.

3. The air compressor can be used for synthesis and polymerization through compressed air

In the chemical industry, certain gases can be synthesized and polymerized after the pressure is raised by a compressor.

Such as atmosphere and hydrogen to synthesize helium, hydrogen and carbon dioxide to synthesize methanol, carbon dioxide and ammonia to synthesize urea, etc.

Polyethylene is produced under high pressure.

4. Air compressor can be used for gas delivery

Air compressors are also used for gas pipeline transportation and bottling, etc.

Air compressors are also used when pipelines transport gas,

such as remote gas transportation, bottling of various gases, and so on.
