A reciprocating 2:1 ratio air pressure booster specifically designed for use where excessive demands are made on an air compressor, has been introduced into this country by Olin Energy Systems.
Designated the Haskel AA-2 air-doubler, it will fill a tank to two times air line pressure and will give a dynamic air pressure boost of 165 per cent under demand, ie it will increase an 80 psi line pressure to 132 psi under demand conditions. The amplifier will stop cycling at two times the inlet pressure, and will hold this pressure indefinitely, starting automatically when pressure drops.
