Marine air compressor as an important part of the ship operation, its classification is also diverse, the main classification methods include working principle, performance, use and type.

• Volumetric type: The volumetric type air compressor uses the change of cylinder volume to further compress the compressed air.

• Power type (speed type or turbine type) : Power type air compressor is the use of high-speed rotating blades or high-speed flow of fluid, the compressed air further compressed.

• Thermodynamic type: Thermodynamic type air compressor uses the principle of thermodynamics to heat, compress and cool the compressed air to achieve the required pressure and flow rate.

• Oil-free air compressor: Oil-free air compressor does not add any lubricating oil during the compression process, and the compressed gas does not contain oil.

• Oil lubricated air compressor: Oil lubricated air compressor adds an appropriate amount of lubricating oil during the compression process to reduce friction and wear, but the compressed gas will contain oil.

Classification by performance:

• Low noise: Low noise air compressor adopts advanced noise reduction technology, low noise during operation.

• Variable frequency: Variable frequency air compressor can adjust the speed and power of the compressor according to actual needs to achieve better energy saving effect.

• Explosion-proof: explosion-proof air compressor adopts explosion-proof design, suitable for the compression and transportation of explosive gas environment.

• Refrigerator air compressor: Refrigerator air compressor is mainly used for gas compression and transportation of refrigerator refrigeration system.

• Air conditioning compressor: Air conditioning compressor is mainly used for air conditioning refrigeration system of gas compression and transportation.

• Refrigeration air compressor: Refrigeration air compressor is mainly used for gas compression and transportation of refrigeration system.

• Air compressor for oil field: Air compressor for oil field is mainly used for gas compression and transportation in the process of oil exploitation.

• For natural gas filling stations: Air compressors for natural gas filling stations are mainly used for natural gas compression and transportation.

• Rock drill: Rock drill air compressor is mainly used for the pneumatic drive of rock drill.

• Pneumatic tools: Air compressors for pneumatic tools are mainly used for pneumatic drive of various pneumatic tools.

• Vehicle braking: Vehicle braking air compressor is mainly used for the pneumatic drive of vehicle braking system.

• Doors and Windows opening and closing: doors and Windows opening and closing air compressor is mainly used for doors and Windows opening and closing control.

• Textile machinery: Air compressors for textile machinery are mainly used for pneumatic control and drive of textile machinery.

• Tire inflation: Air compressor for tire inflation is mainly used for tire inflation and control.

• Plastic machinery: plastic machinery air compressor is mainly used for the pneumatic control and drive of plastic processing machinery.

• Fixed air compressor: fixed air compressor is fixed in a certain position, generally used in fixed places or equipment.

• Mobile air compressor: Mobile air compressors can be moved, and are generally used in places or equipment that need to be moved or transferred frequently.

• Closed air compressor: The compression process of the closed air compressor is carried out in a closed system, which can reduce leakage and pollutant emissions.
