Compressors
A piston compressor, also known as a reciprocating compressor, is a type of air compressor that uses a piston to compress air and store it in a tank. This type of compressor is commonly used in a variety of applications, including air conditioning, refrigeration, and powering pneumatic tools. Piston compressors can be either single-acting or double-acting, depending on the number of pistons used and the direction in which they move.
Single-acting piston compressors use one piston that moves in only one direction, while double-acting piston compressors use two pistons that move in opposite directions.
Piston compressors are typically a little smaller than our other types of air compressors and tend to produce a little more noise and vibration however they are also comparatively inexpensive.
