Leroi
Compressors is one of the top
names mentioned by people who use either
portable or stationary
industrial air compressors.
Leroi compressors are made in France and
marketed worldwide. When it comes to air
handling equipment for construction, mining,
sandblasting or using air tools, it generally
comes down to leroi compressors.
Leroi
is well known in the portable
compressor market segment. Some of the features
of the heavy duty portable machines include reliable,
easy to service engines; durable, heavy gauge
steel housing, rugged unitized frame with heavy
duty tow bar and dual axle design and a curb
side instrument panel that includes tachometer,
air pressure gauges, discharge temperature gauges,
hour meter, voltmeter, water temperature and
fuel level gauges and automatic shut-down switches.
Of course, one of the main features of these
machines is the rugged, rotary twin compressor
screws for long life and heavy duty air compression.
Depending
upon the size and model of leroi compressor
selected, uses include powering sandblasting
equipment and air tools, operating pneumatic
jackhammers and drills, pile driving and emergency
air. One of the chief advantages of these machines
is that they are designed to handle multiple
applications at the same time. One machine can
simultaneously be used for sandblasting, operating
air tools and providing a back-up air supply.
The capacity of these machines range from 1200
to 1600 cubic feet per minute at pressures of
up to 150 pounds per square inch.
All models are equipped with powerful diesel
engines made by either Detroit Diesel or Caterpillar.
These powerful engines are designed to provide
reserve power and long life.
On
the job anywhere in the world, powerful Leroi
compressors are doing the job of three lesser
machines. A leroi air compressor is the preferred
choice of many industrial and construction contractors.
