Chicago Pneumatic Piston Compressors

Where compressed air requirements are low

AIRPLUS Industrial installs CP piston compressors in facilities where compressed air requirements are low and where mobility is desirable – in several configurations.

Chicago Pneumatic Piston Compressors

AIRPLUS offers Chicago Pneumatic piston air compressors for a variety of industrial applications where advantages like high-pressure, mobility and versitily are important.

Operation

Piston air compressors utilize a reciprocating piston mechanism to compress air and store it in a tank for later use. This mechanical process allows them to generate high-pressure air, making them ideal for applications that require substantial power. From simple pneumatic tools like impact wrenches and nail guns to more complex machinery such as air-powered pumps and systems, piston air compressors offer a range of uses across different sectors.

Advantages

High-Pressure Delivery

The ability to deliver high-pressure air output is a significant advantage of these compressors making them suitable for heavy-duty tasks. Applications that demand continuous and uninterrupted operation, such as powering production lines or operating pneumatic machinery are well suited for piston air compressors.

Durability

They are known for their durability and longevity, as they are built to withstand demanding industrial environments.

Cost Effective

Compared to other types of compressors, such as rotary screw compressors, piston compressors typically have a lower initial cost and are more easily maintained. They are highly efficient, allowing users to optimize energy consumption and reduce operational costs over time.

Versatility

Piston air compressors offer versatility in terms of pressure and airflow control. With adjustable pressure settings, users can tailor the compressed air output to meet specific requirements, ensuring optimal performance for a wide range of applications. This adaptability makes piston compressors suitable for various industries and enables them to handle both light-duty and heavy-duty tasks with ease.
