An air compressor increases the amount of air in a particular space. By packing in the air, the air pressure is increased, delivering the air at a higher pressure, which creates a force that is useful for a variety of purposes, from industrial and manufacturing to commercial and personal purposes. The air is kept in an air compressor tank. Compressed air is kept under a certain pressure greater than that of the atmosphere.
