  2. Sullair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sullair

    Sullair opens a new facility in Houston, Texas to expand from air compressors to gas compressors to serve the hydrocarbon and chemical processing industries. 1984: Sullair is purchased by the Sundstrand Corporation in October 1984. 1985: Introduces a full line of pneumatic hand tools to complement their portable air compressor line.

  3. Variable-speed air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-speed_air_compressor

    If a variable speed drive compressor operates continuously at full speed, the switching losses of the frequency converter result in a lower energy efficiency than an otherwise identically sized fixed speed compressor. Where demand remains constant within 5–15% of the total free air delivery flow rate, dual-control compressors configured in a ...

  4. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

    Principal view of the pumping action of a twin-screw pump with a six-lobe female screw and a five-lobe male screw. A compressor (as opposed to a pump) would be shaped the same way, except that the shape of the lobes would change along the length of the screw, so that the volume of the trapped pockets would get squeezed smaller as they get closer to the exhaust port.

  5. Factory service manual - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factory_service_manual

    Factory service manuals have seen the implementation of digitalization over the years. Factory service manuals are generally the only source of information for manufacturers labor time guides. These are times that are generated through labor time studies that are used in warranty operations.

  6. Air compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_compressor

    Air compressor supplies air into a nail gun.. An air compressor is a machine that takes ambient air from the surroundings and discharges it at a higher pressure. It is an application of a gas compressor and a pneumatic device that converts mechanical power (from an electric motor, diesel or gasoline engine, etc.) into potential energy stored in compressed air, which has many uses.

  7. General Electric Passport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Electric_Passport

    The GE Passport is a high bypass ratio turbofan. The engine is a twin-spool, axial-flow turbofan with a high bypass ratio of 5.6:1 and an overall pressure ratio of 45:1. The front fan is attached to the three-stage low-pressure compressor; the 23:1 pressure ratio 10-stage high-pressure compressor includes five blisk stages for weight reduction.

  8. Compressed air dryer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_air_dryer

    Water contamination is an inherent byproduct of compressing atmospheric air since the atmospheric air contains a large amount of water existing in the gaseous form. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Because of this phenomenon, compressed air systems usually benefit from the addition of a compressed air dryer located on the output of the air compressor and/or at ...

  9. Inverter compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_compressor

    The compressor is specifically designed to run at different motor speeds to modulate cooling output. Variable speed operation requires an appropriate compressor for full speed operation and a special compressor lubrication system. Proper oil management is a critical requirement to ensure compressor lifetime.
