There are a wide variety of compressors, thus, proper selection and calculation of compressors is required to best fit with industry-associated application requirements. Data sheets play a pivotal role in designing and calculating the proper compressor unit, tools, pneumatic equipment and associated power.Ĭompressors are commonly used in industry to transfer various media and are essentially mechanical devices to compress working medium in gas form. Data sheets may help to pre-select the compressor unit, which is meant for practical use. Application may be both household-oriented, such as pneumatic tools supplied by compressed air and professional, such as industrial machines supplied by compressed gas, and release of heavy-duty refrigeration units. With over two hundred years existence reciprocating (piston) compressors have been widely used for hundred years only.
