Basic steps to compressor unit calculation and selection

Compressor speed and length of stroke depend on power required. Light-weight, high-speed short-stroke compressors require less power when applied. At the same time, long-stroke, low-speed compressors require more power when applied. Heavy-duty compressors are connected directly to drive gear, where applicable.
