EspañolRECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR
A motor-driven six-cylinder reciprocating compressor that can operate with two, four or six cylinders.
A 'reciprocating compressor' is a compressor that uses pistons driven by a crankshaft to deliver gases at high pressure.[1]
[2]
The intake gas enters the suction manifold, then flows into the compression cylinder where it gets compressed by a piston driven in a reciprocating motion via a crankshaft, and is then discharged. We can categorize reciprocating compressors into many types and for many applications. Primarily, it is used in a great many industries, including oil refineries, gas pipelines, chemical plants, natural gas processing plants and refrigeration plants. One specialty application is the blowing of plastic bottles made of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET).
