Air Compressor Suppliers

There are many different Air Compressor Suppliers out there, all offering a different range and different manufacturers, some specialize specifically in a certain make whilst others will stock all. All of the suppliers have their pros and cons: Bambi: are one of these focusing on quality as their primary component; they use the latest tilting piston technology and try to produce some of the lowest noise compressors. Another benefit they can offer is their Silent Range they are manufactured with acoustic hoods rendering the noise output to almost nothing. Bambi also offer up a Budget Range this is designed specifically for the home, trade and DIY users, they cost a lot less than you would expect but still offer good results, power and low noise levels, some of the compressors have noise levels as low as 40 dBa. SIP: tend to offer low maintenance units that are fast and convenient for trade and DIY users, their industrial units are belt driven with large pneumatic wheels offering easy

Air Compressors

Air compressors are mechanic devices that take in air and then compress and store it in a compressed form (meaning, it occupies less space than in its normal state). Air compressors are equipped with a tank that holds the compressed air inside. The tank is able to withstand all the pressure that the air applies inside it, but there are always signs that warn the user that damaging the tank can result in an accident. One major difference between the various types of air compressors is that some of them are oil-lubricated while some others are not. Those that are not oil lubricated are also called oil-free compressors. Oil-free compressors boast the advantage that they don’t need oil in order to operate, while oil-lubricated compressors do. Additionally, oil-lubricated compressors need to have their oil changed after certain periods of operation. Another difference that can be seen among air compressors is that some of them are stationary (meaning they are static or unmovable), while so
