What is a compressor pump?

The compressor pump is a device used to compress gas and normally prepares gas to be used at high pressure. One of the most common types of compressor pump is on air conditioning (AC) and cooling units, used on air compressors. Using one of the three typical methods of compressing air or gas, the compressor pump is most often rotated with a rubber drive belt, with most units powered by an electric motor. There are two common types of pump, one and dual version. While the compressor pump may contain several pistons, the most common type of compressor uses a single or two -cylinder design. The compressor works similar to the piston engine; The piston motor is commonly referred to as the type of air compressor. The most common type of compressor is composed of pistons and pistons Rings moving up and down in the cylinder using a rod and crankshaft.

reciprocal or piston type of compressor is the most used and relies on the pistons to draw gas. Another type of compressor is the screw compressor, which uses a set of entangled, screw components to capture air and push along the tank. Other types of compressors use eccentric to pump gases and a membrane type pump uses a solid rod pump/piston sealed in a flexible diaphragm. There are also single -phase and dual compressors that can be found in most cylindrical applications, while all single -cylinder compressors are one -stage units.

One -stage compressor pushes the exact amount of air or gas with each piston stroke, turns screws or turning eccentric. This type of compressor is the most common in home, appliance and automobile applications. A double stages compressor pump is used to ensure the final use of a high -pressure/high -volume compressor. The most common in the construction of two cylinders uses a pump withDouble stage each piston as an independent pump or phase. The air pumped with the first piston is pumped into the second cylinder, where it is even more compressed before sending to the air tank or tank.
