Air compressor industry commonly used vocabulary

2026-04-10Views:

The term for air compressor is air compressor (English: aircompressor), which is a device that compresses gas and is the main body of the gas source device. It is a device that converts the mechanical energy of the prime mover (usually an electric motor) into gas pressure energy.

For friends who are new to air compressors, they may know a lot about some common nouns. Let's learn together.

1, compressed air: refers to the absolute pressure is greater than 0.1Mpa air.

2. Air compressor exhaust pressure: refers to the pressure measured at the standard exhaust position of the air compressor.

3. Air compressor displacement: The compressed air compressed and discharged by the air compressor is converted to the actual volume flow under standard suction conditions.

4. Air compressor exhaust temperature: refers to the temperature measured at the standard exhaust position of the air compressor.

5, specific power: compressed unit volume of air required air compressor shaft power.

6, pressure dew point: corresponding to a certain pressure, the water vapor in the compressed air began to condense into a liquid temperature.

7. Standard condition of screw air compressor: suction pressure: 0.1Ma (absolute pressure); Suction temperature: 0 ℃.

8. Air compressor noise: refers to the noise sound pressure level value measured in the environment where the reflection plane is greater than the projection of the measuring surface on it in a wide outdoor field.

9, compressed air oil content: unit volume of air contained in the oil (including oil droplets, suspended particles, oil vapor) quality.

10, compressed air dust content: unit volume of air contained in the quality of dust.

11. Water content of compressed air: the sum of the mass of water and water vapor per unit volume of air.

12. Gas consumption (gas demand): the sum of the compressed air flow required by all gas-using equipment corresponding to a certain working condition.

13, pressure belt: the range of pressure fluctuations in the compressed air system, that is, the difference between the maximum and minimum system pressure.

14. PPM: A symbol indicating the content of trace substances in a mixture, referring to the number of parts per million or parts per million.
