Reciprocating Compressor

Reciprocating Compressor

•    Reciprocating compressors are common machines that provide compressed air for machines and tools.
•    These can be air tools, paint spray equipment, pneumatic actuators and control systems.
•    Air enters the compressor, which then delivers it under pressure to the receiver.
•    A valve releases pressure from the receiver to atmosphere through an orifice.  
•    The separate Universal Dynamometer measures the speed, torque and power absorbed by the compressor.
•    Speed is fully variable up to the maximum allowable for the compressor.
•    The valve sets the pressure in the receiver and hence the flow rate; the orifice allows an accurate measurement of the mass flow rate of the outlet air.
•    The module includes a small compressor with an air receiver and instrumentation, all mounted on a robust, mobile trolley for ease of use.  
•    These values help students to discover how the compressor flow rate relates to the pressure delivered by the compressor.
