Air Compressor Components

Depending on the specific make and model, air compressors typically consist of the following parts and accessories:

• Air compressor pump: This is the core component that compresses the air. An electric motor or a gasoline engine usually drives it.
• Air receiver tank: This is where compressed air is stored, allowing it to be used as needed.
• Pressure control switch: This controls the pressure of the compressed air.
• Drain valve: This is used to drain accumulated condensate from the air receiver tank. There are several types of compressor drain valves, including:
  • Float-operated
  • Timer-controlled
  • Automatic
• Filtration system: This removes impurities from the compressed air to ensure that it is clean and dry.
• Air hoses and fittings: These are used to transport compressed air from the compressor to the point of use.
• Lubrication system: This keeps the air compressor pump lubricated, reducing wear and tear.
• Safety valve: This is a critical component that prevents the pressure in the air receiver tank from becoming too high.
• Gauges: These indicate the pressure and temperature of the compressed air.

Additionally, we carry a range of compressed air dryers that prevent unwanted moisture buildup.
