Machine
Atmospheric air is drawn through a filter into the compression chamber of the block. The air is drawn
in during the downward stroke of the piston. It is compressed during the upward stroke.
The compressed air flows through the cooler, giving up most of its heat, then via the check valve into
the air receiver. The check valve prevents reverse flow of compressed air from the air receiver to the
compressor block.
