Air Compressor
Product Code : LSK-WWPT-10729
Air Compressor (SKU LSK-WWPT-10729) converts power from an electric motor or an engine into energy stored as pressurised air in a tank, ready to drive air tools, blow guns and spray equipment. In ITI, polytechnic and TVET workshops it is the compressed-air source for carpentry, finishing, automotive and maintenance training. Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India to institutes, tender contractors and distributors of vocational training equipment.
Specifications
The Air Compressor’s working principle and drive options are summarised in the table beneath. In short, it forces more and more air into a storage tank, raising the pressure, and can be driven by an electric motor or a diesel or petrol engine; tank size, pressure and air delivery are confirmed for the model quoted.

Applications and Experiments for the Air Compressor
The air compressor supplies compressed air to tools and to teaching rigs. In ITI carpentry, painter, mechanic and maintenance trades, in TVET workshop and pneumatics modules, and in polytechnic labs, trainees use it to run tools and to learn how pressure is built up, stored and regulated.
- Supplying air to pneumatic nailers, staplers and blow guns in a wood workshop.
- Spray finishing of furniture and painted parts.
- Tyre inflation and air-tool practice in automotive training.
- Teaching tank pressure, regulators, drains and safe hose connection, using hose fittings made on the Crimping Machine.
- Supplying air for circuit-building practice on the Industrial Pneumatics Training Equipment.
The tank is a pressure vessel: drain condensate regularly, never exceed the rated pressure, keep safety valves working and never direct compressed air at a person.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Air Compressor is supplied as a single unit as described above. Hoses, couplings, air tools and any other optional accessories are listed on the quotation if you ask for them, together with the tank size and rating of the model offered.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can get a quotation for one compressor or several for a larger training block. It will state the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and the air tools the compressor will run can be listed on the same quotation.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru and Egypt. Ask for an air compressor offer using the contact page or the enquiry cart, and turn to the lab tender page if the purchase goes through a tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does an air compressor work?
A motor or engine drives a pump that pushes air into a closed tank. As more air goes in, the pressure rises, and that stored air is released through a hose to power tools.
What tank size and pressure should we choose?
That depends on how many tools run at once and how much air each uses. Send the tools and number of users through the contact page, and a suitable model will be quoted.
Who supplies the Air Compressor?
The compressor is supplied from Ambala, India by Science Lab Supplies to ITIs, polytechnics, TVET centres, tender contractors and distributors, and the air tools it will run can be quoted on the same document.
Is an engine-driven model available?
Yes, the drive can be an electric motor or a diesel or petrol engine. State your preference, the power available on site and the tools to be run in the enquiry, and the quotation will match a model.
