Medical Air Systems Inc., supply air compressors of the highest quality

 

The air compressors are an air-cooled, oil-less design for supply of clean, high quality air to the medical/surgical air system. Each compressor utilizes grease packed, sealed-for-life bearings and PTFE piston rings to provide reliable operation without conventional lubrication of crankcase and cylinder walls. Low lift, stainless steel valves and anodized valve plates with aerodynamic valve ports ensure durability and long life. All models operate at 72-78dba. An OSHA-compliant belt guard encloses the V-belt drive. Each compressor discharge is equipped with a shutoff valve and a High Air Temperature Shutdown switch wired to the system control panel. Each system control panel includes factory mounted hour meters to monitor factory recommended service intervals as well as running lights to indicate compressor in operation.

Each compressor is driven by a ball bearing, 40° C rise, standard design induction motor with 1.15 service factor.

The system electrical controls are mounted in a NEMA 12 control cabinet, UL Listed as a system. The standard controls include the following features:

Elements

•

Combination type panel including circuit breaker disconnects, magnetic across the line motor starter switch with three phase overload protection and under voltage release.

•

An automatic alternator to cycle lead compressor with each use.

•

Hand-Off-Automatic selector switches.
•

Lag Compressor In-Use indicator light with horn and connection for remote annunciation.
•
