Air or gas compressors are among the most common equipment in industrial processes. An air compressor is basically equipment that captures air from the atmosphere and stores it under pressure in a specific reservoir, for its transformation into compressed air.
Air compressors are divided into their application areas, from compressors used for tire calibration, gas circulation in refrigeration systems, compressed air for pneumatic processes in the industry, among others. However, regardless of its application and size, its operating principle remains the same.
The presence of pressure switches in the air compressors enables automation in the constant supply of compressed air to an industry, for example, in addition to ensuring the safety of the system. A pressure switch acts as an on / off switch. Based on the pressure capacity parameters supported by the compressed air reservoirs, the pressure switches activate and deactivate the capture of air from the atmosphere and its compression.
Without the presence of the pressure switch, a person would be responsible for starting and stopping the engines when the pressure drops, which would be unthinkable on a production line that depends on pneumatic processes, for example.
Lefoo has a line of pressure switches for use in compressors, being recognized by major manufacturers for their quality and precision. Browse our website and discover the entire line of pressure switches for air compressors.
