1. Compact and Lightweight
with the motor and compressor combines into the single structure.
With the piston as the only moving part, efficient space utilization enables the
pump to be considerably smaller and lighter than other pumps. This allows the
OEM design engineer increased packaging options for other internal components. |
2. Low Noise Level
No transmission assemblies, means less noise
With no need for complicated transmission mechanisms riding on ball bearings, or
actually linkages creating friction and noise, Nitto Kohki's pumps are
inherently quieter. Additionally, the almost completely sealed configuration
further suppresses secondary internal operating noises. |
3. Low Vibration
using an ultra-lightweight piston
The extremely low mass, short stroke die cast piston minimizes reactive force
vibrations. Secondary vibrations are isolated or absorbed through the soft
elastomeric mounting pads. |
4. Clean Operation - Clean Air
due to oil-less construction
All wearing surfaces use no oil, grease or other contaminating lubricants. The
combinations of a precious Teflon sleeved piston assisted by an "air-bearing
effect" made possible through a unique air path design, assures that the outlet
air is completely free of oil. |
5. Instant Response
enabling easy start-ups in frequent on-off short cycle applications
A very low starting current enables our pumps to produce immediate performance
in quick short cycle applications, even in the presence of residual back
pressure. |
6. Minimal Pulsating Effect
due to the high resonating speed
The piston's mechanical resonance speed is synchronized with the input power
frequency regardless of the load, i.e., 300 strokes at 50Hz, and 3600 strokes at
60Hz per minute. This high speed produces shorter pulses which translate into a
smoother, more uniform and "linear" motion. |
7. Automatic Pressure Adjustment
with intelligent pressure monitoring
Should an operating condition create excessive pressure, the piston stroke
length proportionally reduces to accommodate the condition. Along with this
adjustment, power consumption is correspondingly reduced, decreasing or
eliminating the potential for system malfunctions or permanent damage. |
8. Low Power Consumption
truly energy efficient through integrated design
Since the low mass piston is the only moving part, friction losses are
minimized, allowing lower starting and running current, and thus greater
efficiency. Related benefits are realized through a lower rise in temperature,
facilitating a longer operating life for the pump and the other components
within your system. |
9. Longer Durability
increase OEM value
All key design features listed here combine to provide superior performance in
all the important aspects of superior pump design. This enables the OEM engineer
to have complete confidence in incorporating the unit into the most demanding
systems, in the most advanced equipment. |
10. Easy Maintenance
only air filter and piston to change
Replacement of the piston can be easily performed by simply removing the four
screws holding the head cover in place. A completely oil-less construction is
achieved through the combination of two elements: the superior abrasion
resistance of the Teflon seals that cover the piston contact surfaces and the
"air-bearing effect" created by the unique air path design. |
