Polish 3 Cylinder Steam Air Compressors Technical Data

I'm going to publish here all the information I have regarding Polish 3 Cylinder Steam Air Compressors, of which there are many examples fitted to Air Braked Steam Locomotives, and were supplied either fitted to imported engines, or retro fitted with one imported via Ian Riley Engineering.

The first part is a GA drawing of the components which make up the standard compressor. All the labels are in Polish, but are fairly self explanatory.

Any Questions?

 

Useful info. Thanks for posting

 

Yes, as I don't know Polish at all! Is the top cylinder the steam cylinder and the other two pump the air in a two-stage process from the middle cylinder to the lower one?

 

Yep

 

Thanks.

 

Getting hard to find so time for a bump!

 

Thanks for this, Currently "Spartan's" doesn't work - so these are a massive help!

 

I've scanned the rest of the book, which is all in Polish, but maybe you can get a translation. I'll be posting it tomorrow.

What is the pump doing?
