ROTARY COMPRESSOR :
1. It is simple in construction.
2. Speed is high.
3. It is suitable for large rate of flow at low discharge pressure.
4. Maintenance cost is less.
5. There is no balancing problem.
6. Simple lubrication system is used.
7. Small in size for the same discharge as compared with reciprocating compressors.
8. Uniform delivery of air is possible.
RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR :
1. Construction is complicated.
2. Speed is low.
3. It is suitable for low rate of flow at very high discharge pressure.
4. Maintenance cost is high.
5. Balancing is major problem.
6. More complicated lubrication system is used.
7. Large in size for the same discharge as compared with rotary compressor.
8. Delivery is not uniform.
