What is a reciprocating compressor?

The oldest and most common industrial compressor is the reciprocating compressor. The reciprocating compressor is a compressor type that works on the principle of positive displacement. In a positive displacement compressor, air is sucked into a compression chamber, after which the air inlet is closed. Because the volume of the room will continue to decrease, the air is compressed. Upon reaching the correct pressure ratio, the air is vented through a valve through the exhaust system as the volume of the compression chamber reduces. The piston compressor comes in both single and double-acting versions, but also in oil-lubricated or oil-free versions.

Single stage compressor TX series

Single-stage compressors TX series are available from 3 hp 220 to 3 hp. 5.5 HP 220/380 frequently used for the workshop in general, where it comes down to providing a relatively large amount of compressed air.
Available in 220 volts with a double Nano motor with a suction flow of 1000 liters.
These high-efficiency compressors are extremely reliable, cheap to purchase and maintain, and are still the most purchased compressors.

Single stage compressor VX series

VX series two-stage compressors are available with a three-phase motor of 7.5 HP and 10 HP, 3x 220/380 volts.
These differ from the TX series due to their higher working pressure of 12 bar (Max. 14 bar) mainly used by workshops dealing with truck tires with 9.8 bar tire pressure. span>
The higher pressure comes at the expense of the flow rate, as 1 cylinder is used to boost the pressure to 14 bar final pressure.

Buy a reciprocating compressor?

The Javac compressors are distinguished by, among other things, the use of thick-walled boilers with an anti-rust treatment on the inside, which makes it virtually impossible for the compressed air tank to rust through.

Unlike other manufacturers, we use the B3/IE2 industrial motors that drive the compressor with normal torque.

The TX/VX compressors are also equipped with an interbuffer, present on the compressed air receiver, which prevents a high peak load as much as possible. This will become important in 2022 when electricity rates are linked to the highest peak power, and now it is precisely reciprocating compressors that form a very high peak load.

The cast iron compressor pumps, produced in the CZ Republic, are equipped with concentric valves, which allows them to guarantee a more than decent air output at low speeds. This results in a high-quality low-condensation compressed air. In contrast to the compressors made in ALU, which are equipped with butterfly valves that require a much higher speed. Result: more heat development, this heat has a negative effect on the quality of both the compressed air obtained and the durability of the compressor.

On average, the Javac TX/VX compressors have a net delivery efficiency of 100 litres/minute per horsepower engine power and at 10 Bar. This is significantly better than other reciprocating compressors.

By copper coil, additionally cooled intermediate pipes and a V-pump, optimum cooling of the generated compressed air is achieved.
All compressors are equipped with a thermal switch to protect the motor.
The mobile compressors are equipped with a sturdy base and ditto wheels, which makes it possible to move these compressors frequently and easily.
The compressors are supplied without a star-delta switch as standard.
To further avoid peak power, you can take the option for a soft starter (see spare parts & accessories).

Reciprocating compressor with 5 years warranty

To benefit from the 5-year factory warranty, you must remove the running-in oil with the Nanofix compressor oil for the first 50 hours. Then perform an oil change every 400 hours. This oil has an additive that polishes the metal parts and separates the condensation water from the oil.
