A high pressure compressor uses screw compressors to achieve high pressure speed, but is prone to failure due to defective seals, bearings and compressor components. It is used in industrial applications to deliver high pressure compressed air to multiple workers using high-volume pneumatic tools. It compresses more air at a lower cost than a single stage low pressure compressor, with less condensation and water in the airflow. It is available in vertical or horizontal versions, but is not a high-volume design. High-volume compressors move more air in the same amount of time as a high-pressure type, albeit at reduced pressures.
A high pressure compressor is an air compressor that operates at a much higher pressure than a typical compressor. Often using screw compressors to achieve high pressure speed, the high pressure compressor is usually more prone to failure due to defective seals, bearings and compressor components. Primarily used in the manufacturing and production of compressed air, such as systems commonly used in scuba diving (SCUBA) diving, the high-pressure compressor is capable of pushing much more air into a small tank than a tank of a comparable size, low pressure compressor.
When used in an industrial application, the high pressure compressor commonly uses several stages to deliver the maximum amount of high pressure compressed air. This allows several workers to use high-volume pneumatic tools without losing air pressure, which could potentially slow production. Along with the higher pressures provided by the high pressure compressor, it also provides a much greater air buildup and does not create the heat associated with a single stage air compressor. This allows the high pressure unit to compress more air at a lower cost than a single stage low pressure compressor. This heat reduction equates to less condensation and water in the airflow.
Less water in the air supply means fewer repairs to air tools due to rust and worn seals, as well as less expense due to installing and maintaining too many water filters in the air supply line. The high-pressure compressor is available in both vertical or standing and horizontal or lying versions. The vertical compressor does not require as much space as the horizontal one, so it is generally possible to obtain a greater air supply with the vertical model than with the horizontal one. While capable of providing more airflow to a pneumatic tool, the high-pressure compressor type is not a high-volume design.
High-pressure compressors are capable of pumping air that is under a large amount of pressure, while high-volume compressors are capable of moving much more air in the same amount of time as a high-pressure type, albeit at higher pressures. reduced. For a single air tool, a high volume compressor will usually provide enough air supply for even the most complex projects, such as operating a sander. For multiple operators using multiple air tools, the high pressure compressor will provide the power to operate the tools even when the air supply is greatly reduced.
