Which compressor is used for high pressure?

reciprocating compressors
Piston compressors, or reciprocating compressors, rely on the reciprocating action of one or more pistons to compress gas within a cylinder (or cylinders) and discharge it through valving into high pressure receiving tanks.

What is high pressure air compressor?

High-pressure industrial air compressors intake ambient air and compress it to pressures as high as 6000 pounds per square inch (PSI) for breathing air and other applications. High-pressure air compressors are used in a variety of applications including fire, industrial, SCUBA, and paintball markets.

What is the maximum pressure of an air compressor?

Single stage air compressors have a maximum pressure of around 130 psi (9 bar) while two stage air compressors have a maximum air pressure of 175 psi (12 bar). Tank size is typically not a critical factor in sizing a compressor.

What is the maximum pressure limit of high pressure compressor?

Any machine delivering more than 150 PSIG is generally considered to be a high pressure compressor. Most handheld tools are rated at 90 PSIG, meaning a standard pressure machine can easily power them.

What is a high pressure compressor used for?

High pressure air compressors are typically used in dry pipe sprinkler systems when you have high city water pressure or where there is a fire pump forcing the air compressor to maintain over 37 psi to hold the valve and fill the system.

What are the uses of high pressure air?

Gas storage, Gas gathering, Gas transport, CNG, LNG, CBG, Biogas and all application where Natural Gas is compressed by reciprocating compressors.

Is Fortress a good air compressor?

The Fortress compressor looks good – literally. Its front panel gives it a cleaner look than the California Air Tool’s open layout. Spec-wise, the Harbor Freight Fortress has a slight lead in some areas, and the California Air Tools in others.
