The advantages of piston air-cooled air compressors mainly include the following aspects:
Adapt to a wider pressure range: Piston air compressors can provide compressed air from low pressure to medium and high pressure, and the highest pressure can usually reach several megapascals (MPa), which is suitable for occasions requiring higher pressure, such as high-pressure painting, small high-pressure air storage, etc.
Higher efficiency and lower energy consumption: Piston air compressors have higher efficiency when running at partial load, especially when running away from the design conditions. In addition, the motor of the piston air compressor usually adopts an electric motor, which is simple to drive and has relatively low energy consumption.
Simple structure and low maintenance cost: The structure of the piston air compressor is relatively simple, and the material requirements used are relatively low. Ordinary steel materials are mostly used, and the cost is relatively low. The maintenance cost is also low because it has fewer wearing parts and the maintenance work is relatively simple.
Adapt to different working environments: Piston air compressors do not have high requirements on the density and characteristics of the gas, and the same air compressor can be used for different gases. In addition, its driving machine is simple, most of them use electric motors, generally do not have speed regulation, and are suitable for a variety of working environments.
Technology is mature and reliable: Piston air compressors are technically mature, have accumulated rich experience in production and use, have a relatively simple installation system, and have high reliability.
