Reciprocating Air Compressor

Two stage air compressors: With two-stage air compressors, the air is compressed in two stages; in between the stages, the air is cooled. Stage 1: Air is compressed to medium level, which is the big cylinder/piston. It moves a high volume of air, but at a low pressure.A two-stage air compressor is a heavy-duty air compressor that uses two cylinders. An air compressor is a device that increases the amount of air in a confined space. Confined air builds pressure and generates power for industrial, commercial and personal uses. The two-stage air compressor comes with two pistons.In a single-stage compressor, the air is compressed one time; in a two-stage compressor, the air is compressed twice for double the pressure.
