What is the working pressure of the air compressor

The operating pressure range of air compressors is very wide, which mainly depends on their specific application scenarios and requirements. The following is a detailed explanation of the working pressure of the air compressor: 1. Working pressure range

  1. Low-pressure air compressor:

    • The working pressure is usually between 0.41.2 MPa (megapas), which is converted into Bar (Bar) unit, 412 bar.
    • This air compressor with a pressure range is suitable for some occasions where air pressure is not very high, such as small equipment such as inflatable toys and pumps, as well as light pneumatic tools and spraying equipment.
  2. Medium-pressure air compressor:

    • Operating pressure range is usually between 1.23 MPa (megapas), i.e. 1230 bar.
    • This is a relatively common pressure range in industrial applications and can meet the needs of most pneumatic tools and equipment, such as production line pneumatic tools, pneumatic transmission systems, etc.
  3. High-pressure air compressor:

    • Operating pressure usually exceeds 3 MPa (megapas), i.e. exceeds 30 bar.
    • This high-pressure air compressor is usually used in specific industrial applications that require extremely high pressures, such as certain special processing processes, high-pressure gas cylinder inflation, air tight testing, etc. The pressure range of common high-pressure air compressors on the market can reach 10~40 MPa (megapas) or higher.

2. Setting of working pressure

The working pressure of the air compressor is set according to the specific use scenario and requirements. For example, in some industrial applications, higher air pressure may be required to drive large pneumatic tools or equipment; while in some cases where air pressure is not high, such as inflatable toys or small pneumatic tools, a lower air pressure setting may be selected.

3. Factors influencing working pressure

The working pressure of an air compressor not only depends on its design and manufacturing capabilities, but also is affected by various factors such as the use environment, equipment specifications, process requirements and energy efficiency. Therefore, when choosing an air compressor, these factors need to be considered comprehensively to ensure that the selected equipment can meet actual needs and operate efficiently.

4. Monitoring and Adjusting Working Pressure

In actual use, you need to always pay attention to the pressure gauge of the air compressor to ensure that the pressure meets the set standards. At the same time, the air compressor needs to be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure its normal operation and extend its service life. If you find abnormal pressure or equipment failure, you should shut down the machine and repair it in time and seek help from professionals.

In general, the working pressure range of the air compressor is veryBroadly, depending on its application scenario and requirements. When selecting and using an air compressor, a variety of factors need to be considered to ensure the normal operation and efficient performance of the equipment.
