Air compressor

Mar 22, 2005 3 Replies

Hi,



I'm are looking for an air compressor for a industrial machine and hopefully one of you can help me! The machine needs a permanent pressure of 7bar and the volume flow is minimal till not existing. So the pump must just hold up the presure. The machine runs nearly 24/7 and the pump should run quitly. What kind of possibilities do I have when I don't want to spend too much money?



Cheers Joern


Dear Joern:

You might want to consider a receiver tank to maintain pressure, and run the compressor on a pressure switch. It would save wear and tear on a cheap compressor.

A gas cylinder and regulator are possibly the most reliable device at your disposal. Maybe $100

Brian Whatcott Altus OK
