What Is a Reciprocating Air Compressor?

Reciprocating air compressors are versatile pieces of equipment that use crankshafts to pressurize gases to increase their density while lowering volume. During operation, a reciprocating air compressor moves air into the cylinder via a suction valve to form a vacuum. The pistons inside the cylinders then reverse their motion to begin compressing. Once the cylinder’s internal pressure exceeds the pressure in the discharge pipes, the valves open, and air flows out of the cylinder.
