Single-Stage Reciprocating Air Compressor

WHY ELGi's PISTON COMPRESSORS?

Designed for Continuous Duty

The single-stage reciprocating air compressors from ELGi, including the 1HP variants, are designed for continuous operation. Whether in a workshop or an industrial setting, these belt-driven compressors provide a continuous and reliable supply of compressed air, meeting the demands of continuous operation without compromising performance.

Deep-Finned Cast Iron Cylinder

In ELGi's single-stage piston compressors, a deep-finned cast iron cylinder improves heat dissipation during compression. This design element not only increases overall efficiency by reducing overheating, but it also increases the longevity of the belt-driven air compressor, resulting in a longer operational lifespan.

Forged Steel Crankshaft

The use of a forged steel crankshaft in ELGi's single-stage reciprocating compressors indicates their commitment to durability. This tough component has outstanding strength and resilience, providing smooth and reliable performance even under large loads, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications.

Sturdy, Robust Cast Iron Crankcase

In ELGi's belt-driven compressors, a solid and robust cast iron crankcase adds durability and stability. This feature not only protects the interior components but also adds to the overall structural integrity of the single-stage air compressor, allowing it to survive difficult operating circumstances.

Aluminium Cooler Tubes and Aerodynamically Designed Fan for Efficient Cooling

ELGi prioritises efficient cooling by employing aluminium cooler tubes and an aerodynamically built fan in their single-stage reciprocating air compressors. This combination improves heat dissipation, which prevents overheating and ensures consistent performance. It demonstrates ELGi's commitment to efficiency and reliability under varied workloads.

Air Receiver, Conforming to ASME Design

Air receivers manufactured in compliance with ASME requirements are used in ELGi's single-acting reciprocating air compressors. This attention to industrial standards ensures not only the quality and safety of the air receiver but also conformity with established standards, giving users confidence in the efficiency and reliability of the belt-driven air compressor.

Pressure Relief Valve for Extra Safety

ELGi places a premium on safety, as indicated by the installation of a pressure relief valve in their belt-driven compressors. This vital safety element releases excess pressure, preventing potential damage and ensuring the single-stage reciprocating air compressor works safely.

Automatic Start and Stop Loop Control

The automatic start and stop loop control on ELGi's single-stage piston compressors improves both energy economy and operational convenience. This intelligent control technology not only saves money by reducing excessive power usage but also makes the 1HP air compressor more user-friendly and efficient.
