is a <a href="/wiki/Breathing_air_compressor" class="mw-redirect" title="Breathing air compressor">breathing air compressor</a> that can provide breathing air directly to a surface-supplied diver, or fill <a href="/wiki/Diving_cylinder" title="Diving cylinder">diving cylinders</a> with high-<a href="/wiki/Pressure" title="Pressure">pressure</a> <a href="/wiki/Air" class="mw-redirect" title="Air">air</a> pure enough to be used as a hyperbaric <a href="/wiki/Breathing_gas" title="Breathing gas">breathing gas</a>. A low pressure diving air compressor usually has a delivery pressure of up to 30 bar, which is regulated to suit the depth of the dive. A high pressure diving compressor has a delivery pressure which is usually over 150 bar, and is commonly between 200 and 300 bar. The pressure is limited by an overpressure valve which may be adjustable. </p><p>Most high pressure diving air compressors are oil-lubricated multi-stage piston <a href="/wiki/Compressor" title="Compressor">compressors</a> with inter-stage cooling and condensation traps. Low pressure compressors may be single or two-stage, and may use other mechanisms besides reciprocating pistons. When the inlet pressure is above ambient pressure the machine is known as a <a href="/wiki/Booster_pump#Gas" title="Booster pump">gas booster pump</a>. </p><p>The output air must usually be filtered to control purity to a level appropriate for breathing gas at the relevant diving depth. Breathing gas purity standards are published to ensure that the gas is safe. It may also be necessary to filter the intake air, to remove particulates, and in some environments it may be necessary to remove <a href="/wiki/Carbon_dioxide" title="Carbon dioxide">carbon dioxide</a>, using a <a href="/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_scrubber" title="Carbon dioxide scrubber">scrubber</a>.

The air is also heated by compression, and when cooled between stages in the inter-cooler coils, the relative humidity increases, and when it exceeds 100% will tend to condense out onto the surface of the tubes and as droplets carried by the air-stream. The air from the inter-cooler coils is led into the large diameter vertical axis tube of a separator, where it changes direction by about 90 degrees and is slowed down considerably. When the airflow changes direction towards the outlet at the top of the separator casing, the denser droplets have a tendency to hit the walls and coalesce into a film, which will flow downwards to the bottom of the separator and collect there where it can be periodically discharged through a drain valve. This reduces the water content of the outlet air, which is then compressed again in the next stage cylinder, cooled again, and the water that condenses out is again removed by the next separator.<sup id="cite_ref-Burton_5-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Burton-5"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Green_6-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Green-6"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>After final stage separation the relatively droplet free but humid air passes through the filter to remove yet more water, and any other contaminants that the filter media will adsorb.

During start-up the compressor first builds up pressure on the first stage, and is unbalanced, with a greater load on that cylinder's piston, and will vibrate more than normal, as there is no equivalent load on the other stage pistons, then pressure in the other stages builds up in sequence, until all cylinders are operating at their working pressures, the loads on all the pistons are similar, and the back-pressure valve starts to open to let the compressed gas flow to the distribution panel.<sup id="cite_ref-Green_6-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Green-6"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Pressure">Pressure</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Diving_air_compressor&amp;action=edit&amp;section=8" title="Edit section: Pressure"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Compressor_air_bank.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Compressor_air_bank.jpg/220px-Compressor_air_bank.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="255" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Compressor_air_bank.jpg/330px-Compressor_air_bank.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/52/Compressor_air_bank.jpg 2x" data-file-width="431" data-file-height="500" /></a><figcaption>Air bank</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg/220px-High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="293" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg/330px-High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg/440px-High_pressure_breathing_air_compressor_installation_P8160001.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3456" data-file-height="4608" /></a><figcaption>High pressure breathing air compressor installation</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg/220px-Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg/330px-Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg/440px-Breathing_gas_filling_panel_P8160006.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4608" data-file-height="3456" /></a><figcaption>Breathing gas filling panel</figcaption></figure> <p>Diving compressors generally fall into one of two categories: those used for <a href="/wiki/Surface-supplied_diving" title="Surface-supplied diving">surface-supplied diving</a> and those used for filling <a href="/wiki/Scuba_set" title="Scuba set">scuba</a> <a href="/wiki/Diving_cylinder" title="Diving cylinder">diving cylinders</a> and surface-supply storage cylinders. </p><p>Surface-supplied air diving compressors are low-pressure and high-volume.

Their output is generally between 6 and 20 bars (100 and 300&#160;psi). These compressors must be sufficiently powerful to deliver gas at a sufficient pressure and volume for multiple divers working at depths of up to about 60 metres (200&#160;ft).<sup id="cite_ref-DSM_1st_ed_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DSM_1st_ed-8"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Compressors used to fill scuba cylinders have a high delivery pressure and may have a low delivery volume. They are used to fill diving cylinders and storage cylinders or banks of storage cylinders. These compressors may be smaller and less powerful because the volume of gas they deliver is not so critical as it is not directly used by the diver; a lower volume compressor can be used to fill large storage cylinders during the periods when demand is low. This stored compressed air can be decanted into diving cylinders when needed. Common scuba diving cylinder pressures are 200 bar (2940 psi), 3000 psi (207 bar), 232 bar (3400 psi) and 300 bar (4500 psi).<sup id="cite_ref-CMAS-ISA_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CMAS-ISA-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Heat_of_compression">Heat of compression</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Diving_air_compressor&amp;action=edit&amp;section=9" title="Edit section: Heat of compression"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Diving_cylinder#Filling" title="Diving cylinder">Diving cylinder §&#160;Filling</a></div> <p>When diving cylinders are filled the gas inside them warms as a result of <a href="/wiki/Adiabatic_process" title="Adiabatic process">adiabatic heating</a>. When the gas cools by losing heat to the surroundings, the pressure will drop as described by the <a href="/wiki/Ideal_gas_law" title="Ideal gas law">general gas equation</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gay-Lussac%27s_law" title="Gay-Lussac&#39;s law">Gay-Lussac's law</a>. Divers, to maximise their dive time, generally want their cylinders filled to their safe capacity, the working pressure. To provide the diver with a cylinder filled to the working pressure at the nominal temperature of 15 or 20&#160;°C, the cylinder and gas must be kept cool when filling or filled to a pressure such that when it cools it is at the working pressure. This is known as the <a href="/wiki/Diving_cylinder#Developed_pressure" title="Diving cylinder">developed pressure</a> for the filling temperature. Health and safety regulations and pressure vessel design standards may limit the working temperature of the cylinder, commonly to 65&#160;°C, in which case the cylinder must be filled slowly enough to avoid exceeding the maximum working temperature.<sup id="cite_ref-SANS_10019:2008_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SANS_10019:2008-9"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Cylinders are often filled at a rate of less than 1 <a href="/wiki/Bar_(unit)" title="Bar (unit)">bar</a> (100 <a href="/wiki/KPa" class="mw-redirect" title="KPa">kPa</a> or 15 <a href="/wiki/Pound-force_per_square_inch" class="mw-redirect" title="Pound-force per square inch">lbf/in²</a>) per second to allow time for heat transfer to the surroundings to limit this increase in temperature. As a method to remove heat faster when filling the cylinder, some filling stations “wet fill” cylinders immersed in a bath of cold water. There is an increased risk of internal cylinder corrosion caused by moisture from the wet environment entering the cylinder due to contamination during connection of the filling hose during wet filling.<sup id="cite_ref-Dry_filling_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Dry_filling-10"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="The_bank">The bank</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Diving_air_compressor&amp;action=edit&amp;section=10" title="Edit section: The bank"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Compressors may be connected to a bank of large, high-pressure cylinders to store compressed gas, for use at peak times.
