How Do I Control the Pressure of My Air Compressor?
Pressure switches are the most basic pressure control devices and send an electrical signal to the compressor pump to stop or start when the air compressor pressure exceeds these limits.
Pressure regulating valves are used to regulate and stabilize air pressure in a system to ensure a constant output pressure. The valve is controlled by a spring and diaphragm. As the system pressure increases, the diaphragm is forced to squeeze the spring, reducing the valve opening and lowering the pressure. Conversely, when the pressure drops, the spring pushes the diaphragm, increasing the valve opening and raising the pressure.
The unloading valve is used to release excess pressure and prevent overpressurization when the compressor does not need to work.
Inverters not only control the speed of the compressor, but also indirectly control the system pressure.
Selection of the appropriate pressure control method depends on the specific application needs, system complexity and accuracy requirements. Pressure switches and pressure regulating valves are common basic control methods for most application scenarios. Frequency converters and electronic pressure control systems are suitable for applications that require high precision and complex control, providing greater efficiency and stability.
