Is it okay to use a 12kg pressure air compressor in the factory?

It is possible to use an air compressor with a pressure of 12 kg in the factory, but multiple factors need to be considered comprehensively. The following is a detailed analysis of this problem:

  1. Applicability analysis:
    • For most industrial production fields, such as automobile repair, wood processing, metal processing, etc., the output air pressure of the air compressor is between 6~8bar (i.e. 0.6~0.8MPa, equivalent to 60~80 kg pressure). The air flow rate within this air pressure range is relatively large, which can meet the work needs of impact, cutting, clamping and other degrees.
    • However, in certain special industrial fields, such as aerospace, higher air pressure may be required. For such applications, a 12 kg pressure air compressor is suitable because it can provide higher air pressure to meet specific process needs.
  2. Equipment capability and safety:
    • A 12 kg pressure air compressor, as a medium and high pressure equipment, has the characteristics of high efficiency, continuous work, environmental protection and energy saving. This type of air compressor is designed for continuous operation and is suitable for long-term large-scale use, ensuring efficient and stable production.
    • But at the same time, it should also be noted that if the rated pressure of the original air compressor is much lower than 12 kg, forcibly raising the pressure may cause the motor to run overload and affect the mechanical life of the equipment. Therefore, when choosing an air compressor with a pressure of 12 kg, it is necessary to ensure that the equipment itself has the corresponding pressure tolerance.
  3. Lease and purchase options:
    • Lease a 12kg pressure air compressor can be a cost-effective option for short-term projects or small businesses. The leasing method can reduce the cost of equipment investment, avoid the economic pressure of one-time large-scale procurement, and flexibly adjust the lease term and equipment model according to project needs.
    • For long-term use or large enterprises, purchasing equipment may be more cost-effective. You can consult a professional when purchasing or refer to the device user manual to determine the appropriate pressure setting and device model.

To sum up, it is feasible to use a 12 kg pressure air compressor in the factory, but it needs to be comprehensively considered based on specific usage needs, equipment capabilities and economic costs. When choosing, it is recommended to consult a professional or equipment supplier to ensure that the selected air compressor meets production requirements and ensures safe operation.
