Joy WH62 Air Compressor

With A Piston Speed Of 1200 Feet Per Minute


Joy WH62 Air compressor is now a part of Cooper Compression Systems. This air compressor is a 2 cylinder system which uses a reciprocating piston. It prides in controlling all the three different starting torques very effectively. Friction is controlled as soon as it starts up due to its advanced design. Compression Torque is minimized by specially designed bypass systems and unloader systems. The characteristic of the motor is such so as to to reduce inertia. Moreover heavy flywheels are not used and hence inertia is almost never a problem with these reciprocating air compressors. All these factors combine to minimize the start up torque hence making these an extremely popular choice.

Overall Review

The Joy WH62 Air compressor come with a low maintenance cost as they do not have any parts which wear with time and usage and require regular replacement. As they are oil free there is no contamination due to oil. With a cast iron frame covered with steel plates and a iron cased removable crosshead guide, these air compressors are definitely one of the best available in the market.

The icing on the cake is the use of Compass software. This software is an extremely user friendly, Microsoft and windows based software, which is used to perfection for the sizing of the cylinder of this air compressor. Once the preliminary cylinder selection and sizing is done the user can include any other specific selections followed by detailed calculation ranging from performance curves and dynamic rod load calculations.
