About SINGLE STAGE AIR COMPRESSOR TEST RIG

Specification:

SINGLE STAGE AIR COMPRESSOR TEST RIG

Product Description

Single Stage Air Compressor Test Rigconsists of a single stage reciprocating type air compressor driven by 1 HPmotor through a belt. The outlet of the air compressor is connected toreservoir (Tank) and suction is connected to another air tank with an orificeplate and a water manometer.

Bellow is fitted on one side of thisair tank to regulate the flow. Temperature of inlet and outlet of air andpressure at outlet can be measured by Temperature sensor and pressure gauge.

Experimentation:
