Air Compressors 101: How Air Compressor Components, Systems and Parts Come Together to Make Compressed Air

A comprehensive review of how design engineers integrate various components, controls and parts into high-performance compressed air systems.

Many facilities rely on compressed air systems to provide a fourth utility. As with the other three (water, electricity and natural gas), too many people take this vital service for granted, missing the opportunity to save money and energy and improve the efficiency of their operations.

This whitepaper explains how an air compressor works and shows how its components, controls and parts are integrated into high-performance systems that deliver the compressed air so many businesses and organizations rely on.

The first section follows the air as it moves through your rotary screw air compressor. Then, we’ll discuss the supporting elements, including the controls, motors and cooling systems. Finally, we’ll talk about the downstream equipment that enhances the operation of the entire system, including dryers that condition and tanks that store the air.
