What is the standard pressure of the air compressor?

The standard pressure of the air compressor is not a fixed value, but is determined according to the specific application requirements. Generally speaking, the pressure level of the air compressor can be divided into the following ranges:

low-pressure air compressor: The exhaust pressure is generally below 1.6MPa(16 bar). This type of air compressor is suitable for scenarios with low pressure requirements, such as light pneumatic tools, spraying equipment, etc.

Medium pressure air compressor: The exhaust pressure is usually between 1.6MPa(16 bar) and 10.0MPa(100 bar). This type of air compressor is suitable for application scenarios with medium pressure requirements, such as production line pneumatic tools, pneumatic conveying systems, etc. It is also said that the pressure range of the medium pressure air compressor is between 1.2 and 3.0 MPa(12 and 30 bar). In addition, there are specific types of medium-sized air compressors, the pressure is usually between 10 and 20 bar.

High-pressure air compressors: discharge pressures in excess of 10.0MPa(100 bar) are used in applications requiring a high-pressure gas supply, such as filling high-pressure gas cylinders, gas tightness testing and specific industries such as petroleum, chemical and aerospace. The specific high-pressure range is also different, for example, some high-pressure air compressors can reach a pressure range of 4.0 to 40.0MPa.

In addition to the above classification, there are some special purpose air compressor, its pressure range is also different, such as micro air compressor (15 bar), light air compressor (510 bar), ordinary air compressor (0.70.8MPa, that is 78 bar) and so on.

When choosing an air compressor, it is important to clarify the specific pressure range required and ensure that the selected air compressor can meet this requirement. At the same time, the operation of the air compressor should be carried out in strict accordance with the manufacturer's regulations to ensure the safety of the system.

In summary, due to the diversity of application requirements, the standard pressure of the air compressor is not a fixed value, but is determined according to the actual application scenario.
