Design Advantages
Design Advantages
Multi-finned Cylinders
- Cooler operating temperatures result in longer life and consistent performance over time.
Integral Cylinder/Head
- Gasketless design eliminates the possibility of blown head gaskets for leak-free operation.
Balanced Pistons
- Aluminum alloy first-stage piston is weight matched to the cast iron second-stage piston, ensuring proper balance.
Piston Rings
- Three compression rings and one oil control ring provide excellent oil control, minimum blow-by and high efficiency air delivery.
Lightweight Connection Rods
- High-density, die-cast aluminum alloy rods minimize reciprocating weight. An integral, precision-bored crankpin bearing and a needle bearing for the piston pin properly distribute bearing loads for longer bearing life than bushings.
Pressure Relief Valves
- Located in interstage and discharge.
Intercoolers
- Large-diameter finned tubing is positioned to obtain the greatest cooling effect between stages for maximum compressor efficiency.
Optimized Cooling Fan/Flywheel
- Precision balanced flywheel has fan blades for optimum compressor cooling and life.
Reliable, High-Flow Valves
- Single-unit, disc-type valves provide low lift and long life. Discs are made of corrosion resistant Swedish steel. Valves are easily serviced by removing the manifolds only.
Oversized Main Bearings
- Tapered roller-type main bearings provide full contact and support of the crank plus delivers the longest possible life.
Balanced Crankshaft
- Constructed of rugged ductile iron with large diameter throws for minimum bearing loads and counterweights to minimize vibration.
Large Capacity Crankcase
- Rugged cast iron oil reservoir has convenient sight gauge glass, corner oil fill boss and large oil drain.
Loadless Starting
- Positive acting, governor-type centrifugal unloader assures longer motor life by allowing the compressor to start unloaded every time.
