Prepare yourself and your team to work safely with and around compressed air systems. Use this course to get a better understanding of the benefits and uses of compressed air. This course discusses the types of compressors (reciprocating, rotary screw, and centrifugal), the relationship between pressure, temperature and volume, gauge vs. absolute pressure, and air quality considerations. Additional topics include air cooling and drying as well as managing airborne, oil, and moisture contamination.

There are many different types of compressors. The types can be broken into categories based on their principle of operation. The first and most fundamental classification is whether a compressor is a positive displacement or dynamic compressor. This module will explain the difference between these two types of compressors and then concentrate on the principles of operation and the construction of two major types of dynamic compressors, centrifugal and axial.

There are many different types of compressors. The first and most fundamental classification of a compressor is whether it is a positive displacement or dynamic compressor. Centrifugal compressors are dynamic compressors that increase the pressure of a gas by first increasing its velocity, or kinetic energy. This module will review the principles of operation of centrifugal compressors and then examine the steps involved in overhauling a particular multistage integrally geared centrifugal compressor.
