AB  - A Selection of Equipment of Use in the Production and Maintenance of Aircraft, Missiles, Space Vehicles and Components. A new class R rotary stationary air compressor range has been introduced by the Consolidated Pneumatic Tool Co. Ltd., as a series of models with capacities of 70, 100, 160, 200, 300 and 500 cu. ft./min. at 100 lb./sq. in. Every size is available as an air or water cooled model and each of these variants can be supplied with a built‐in aftercooler. This extensive choice ensures that most operating conditions can be satisfied from the new range. The class R machines embody the well proven Power Vane principle of air compression in a new plant layout which now contains all the ancillary equipment for a stationary air compressor installation on one deck. This fully develops the inherent vibration free running and simple maintenance characteristics of the series to form a unique, continuous duty, packaged compressor. It is a feature of this new class R range that the need for supplying, mounting and connecting up any ancillary equipment such as an air receiver, after‐cooler or an electric starter is completely eliminated. Thus any model from the range can be supplied off the shelf and installed at its destination without special foundation preparation and with only simple connection to the electrical power supply and air mains.
