block is of a four stage, four cylinders design. The cylinders are arranged in the 1st stage on the left, 2nd stage on the right, 3rd and
4th stage on the centre side looking from the filter side. The compressor blocks are particularly suitable for continuous operation
because of their rugged design and the corrosion resistant intermediate filter and cooler assemblies. Smooth running is a particular
