Whether air compressor belongs to special equipment

Air compressor is not special equipment. Special equipment refers to boilers, pressure vessels, pressure pipes, elevators, lifting appliances, passenger ropeways, large amusement facilities and special motor vehicles in the field (factory) that involve life safety and high risk.

Among them, boilers, pressure vessels (including gas cylinders) and pressure pipes are special pressure-bearing equipment; elevators, hoisting machinery, passenger ropeways and large amusement facilities are electromechanical special equipment.

An air compressor is a device used to compress gas. Air compressors are similar in construction to water pumps. Most air compressors are reciprocating piston type, rotating blade or rotating screw. Centrifugal compressors are very large applications.
