Compressor element operating principle
Each compressor element consists of a fixed scroll shaped housing and a scroll shaped
rotor. Air enters the compressor element through inlet opening (1). Once the air is drawn
in, the orbiting scroll (4) seals the inlet opening and forces the air into a continuously
decreasing space. As scroll (4) keeps orbiting, this process of compression is constantly
repeated, resulting in discharging of oil free compressed air through outlet opening (3).
