The air transformer set (Fig. 52) is for the purpose of regulating and purifying the compressed air, and is a necessity with each Aeron installed. The air duster (D) is a valuable addition to the equipment for removing loose dust or dirt from the work before finishing.
The auto-filter (S) is for removing dust, grit, and oil from the compressed air. The auto-regulator and gauge (R) makes possible the regulating of the air pressure between 5 and 80 pounds, simply by turning a thumb-screw. The auto-condenser (C) is for separating moisture from the compressed air.
Full details of the air compressor and other special appliances used in connection with the Aeron will be found elsewhere.
The Aeron Sprayer.
The Airostyle.
Next comes the Airostyle and Lithos, Ltd., with their "Airostyle" type Record, also a concentric jet-type, an illustration of which is given in Fig. 55 and a section of which we give also in Fig. 54. This type is largely used for small, medium or large work, and is considered to be extremely sensitive and very fast in operation. It has a gunmetal casting for the main body, and all wearing parts are of steel, tempered or case hardened.
It is supplied either with or without pressure fed accessories, although the makers are strong advocates of pressure feeds for most work, and with which they have met considerable success.
