TX-3

The professional javac piston compressors of the X series

The TX/VX piston compressors have been in our range for 30 years, and are manufactured in the former Sudetenland (CZ republic). In contrast to the ALU pumps, these V-compressors, made of cast steel, have a particularly smooth running, low noise, slow running, and equipped with concentric valves, which guarantees a high efficiency.

That is why it is now equipped as standard with a unique 4 HP motor on 230 V. This gives a flow rate of 400 liters at 6 bar and 360 liters at 10 bar net delivery, and yet this pump only runs at 900 rpm with an aspirated flow rate of 500 lt./min). Built around a 100 liter thick-walled tank (hence the weight of 120 kg). Built around a 100 liter thick-walled tank (hence the weight of 120 kg). Please note that our compressors have a small buffer tank, so that the E-motors always start in no-load load.

This way we avoid having to use motors with a very high torque. This gives 2 major advantages: no peak load = lower power consumption and the possibility to run in continuous load (it is better not to do this with a normal compressor). It goes without saying that it is desirable to determine the capacity of your compressor in such a way that a rest point of 30% of its capacity is obtained. From 5,5 to10 pk (4-7.5kw) with electronical motor and 5.5 to 13 pk with petrol or diesel motor .The compressor is also equipped with an automatic start/stop system (prestostat), a safety group, and a practical reducing valve with 2 outputs to regulate the pressure on the compressor itself. There are also 2 Orion couplings for direct air extraction and a ½” exit for connection to a ring main in the workhouse. This compressor stands on 2 strong solid rubber wheels, which makes frequent moving possible. The quality of compressed air is obtained by getting it as cooled as possible in the tank. This significantly reduces condensation and is directly responsible for the quality of the compressed air. The TX-3 is equipped with a cast steel V-pump, which together with the rib-cooled pipe ensure optimal after-cooling of the compressed air. As described above, the speed is limited to 900 rpm, so that the pump does not start up hot, and makes much less noise than. This is possible because we use standard concentric valves instead of butterfly valves, which are a lot more expensive, but the result can be seen in much higher efficiency, less heat development, and finally superior compressed air quality. Although the water delivery is more limited for the TX-3 compressors, we recommend a centrifugal filter or a compressed air dryer when using compressed air machines, sandblasting, paint sprayers, etc.The maintenance of this compressor is limited to regularly releasing the condensation water from the boiler and changing the oil every 300 working hours, using only the Javac compressor oil that separates the condensation water from the oil. Never put multigrade oil on the pump, this leads to serious damage to the compressor pump, in principle any compressor pump.
