For use as a pressure supply for Pressure Extractors.
Designed for sustained, continuous operation; comes with preset safety relief valves, pressure limit switches and shutoffs for excessive pressures or electrical conditions.
A necessity for soils labs – consistent and reliable operation.
Available in 110V and 230V.
The compressor is an air cooled, oil lubricated reciprocating compressor working on the single stage principle of compression.
Atmospheric air is drawn in through the air filter into the compression chamber of the compressor block. The downward movement of the piston creates a vacuum. When the piston has passed the bottom dead centre, the air drawn into the cylinder is compressed by the upward movement of the piston. At the same time the inlet valves close and the outlet valves open.
The compressed air is forced through a check valve into the air receiver. The check valve prevents the compressed air flowing back from the air receiver to the compressor block after shutdown.

* Calculated from the measured mean sound power level (Directive 2000/14/EG, basic standard for noise measurement ISO 3744) to EN ISO 11203: 1995 para. 6.2.3.d at distance d=1m, Q.2=12.9 dB (A).
** Maximum dual element time-delay fuses are selected according to 2002 N.W.C. Article 240-6, 430-52 and Tables 430-52, 430-148 & 150. Select multi-strand copper core wire at 40°C ambient temperature according to 2002 N.E.C. 110-14(c), 220-3, 310-15, Table 310-16, 430-22, 430-24 and Tables 430-148 and 150.
Under unsuitable mains conditions, operation of the compressor can have an adverse effect on other equipment. No interference should be expected if the mains network impedance is less than 0.3Ω (ohms). Generally, the maximum permissible impedance will not be exceeded if the compressor is supplied from a domestic power outlet or a sub-distribution cabinet with a rated current of 25A.
