About us

Welcome to compressordatabase.com

We will help you shortlist air compressors that meet your operational requirements.

We work for you. We are not paid or given incentives to endorse any particular brand or vendor of air compressors. You will receive entirely unbiased results.

Whether you are a plant engineer, maintenance manager, consultant, service rep, or utility, selecting the most energy-efficient air compressor can be daunting. The main problem is that you often have to make an air compressor purchase or replacement decision with incomplete information. You have to spend lots of time searching on websites and often end up having to buy a less-than-ideal compressor.

It is a well-known axiom that, over their operating life, the energy and maintenance costs of most air compressors are about 90%, while the capital cost is about 10%. Making a smart compressor selection decision can be a force multiplier.

Using publicly available performance data published by the major vendors, we have assembled a database of more than 3,500 variable- and fixed-speed compressors. This is the most comprehensive database of its type.

Here, you will find:

A simple-to-use dashboard to enter your compressed air requirements and operating conditions.
Ability to compare and contrast compressors from a single vendor or from multiple vendors.
Red flags: questions to ask your vendor before making a purchase decision. For example, unrealistic isentropic efficiency claims are highlighted.
Estimate the annual energy cost for all of the shortlisted air compressors.
