Too often, a user will see a compressor with a high CFM rating and assume it is suitable for high pressure applications. While a high capacity compressor can be useful for running multiple tools simultaneously, CFM and PSIG have no bearing on one another. A high pressure screw air compressor can have a low capacity, while a high capacity compressor may only have a PSIG rating suitable for light- or medium-duty use.
High Pressure Compressor Applications
High pressure screw air compressors have a number of very specific uses, particularly in industrial and energy applications. You can find them on offshore drilling rigs and remote pipeline settings, where they are used to start engines and motors, or to help convey drilling mud. They are also used to drive turbines and generators in power plants, and for various processes in manufacturing facilities.
Choosing a High Pressure Compressor
The specifics of your application will determine which compressor is right for you. As one of the leading high pressure screw air compressor manufacturers, we have a full range of products available to meet the needs of any client.
Aside from pressure and capacity, other factors that should be considered when choosing a machine include:
The overall efficiency of the unit
Whether or not it is lubricated
Its operating noise level, expressed in decibels (dBA)
Our high pressure screw air compressors are capable of delivering between 150-200 PSIG, with various CFM levels according to the intended application. For heavy-duty industrial use or other specialized applications, our company also manufactures reciprocating/piston air compressors, oil-free compressors and other products.
