  2. 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.

  3. Trompe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trompe

    The compressed air rises to the top of the separation chamber (wind box). The separation chamber has a compressed-air takeoff pipe, and the compressed air can be used as a power source. The energy of the falling water creates a partial vacuum inside the pipe that is compensated by the air from the outside atmosphere provided through inlet.

  4. Scroll compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scroll_compressor

    Animation of a spinning scroll compressor. Léon Creux first patented a scroll compressor in 1905 in France and the US. [2] Creux invented the compressor as a rotary steam engine concept, but the metal casting technology of the period was not sufficiently advanced to construct a working prototype, since a scroll compressor demands very tight tolerances to function effectively.

  5. Rotary-screw compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary-screw_compressor

    Utilized by compressor companies Quincy Compressor, Kobelco, Gardner Denver, Kaishan USA, and Sullair, variable displacement alters the percentage of the screw compressor rotors working to compress air by allowing air flow to bypass portions of the screws. While this does reduce power consumption when compared to a modulation control scheme, a ...

  6. Sullair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sullair

    Sullair is a major American manufacturer of portable and stationary rotary screw air compressors designed for commercial and industrial use. Founded in 1965 in the town of Michigan City, Indiana U.S.A., Sullair has manufacturing facilities in Michigan City that distribute and service air compressor packages and systems worldwide.

  7. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    A compressor will only pump air in a stable manner up to a certain pressure ratio. Beyond this value the flow will break down and become unstable. This occurs at what is known as the surge line on a compressor map. The complete engine is designed to keep the compressor operating a small distance below the surge pressure ratio on what is known ...

  8. Compressed air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_air

    Compressed air is an important medium for the transfer of energy in industrial processes and is used for power tools such as air hammers, drills, wrenches, and others, as well as to atomize paint, to operate air cylinders for automation, and can also be used to propel vehicles. Brakes applied by compressed air made large railway trains safer ...

  9. Inverter compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_compressor

    In air conditioning, an inverter compressor is a compressor that is operated with an inverter. In the hermetic type, it can either be a scroll or reciprocating compressor . This type of compressor uses a drive to control the compressor motor speed to modulate cooling capacity.
