Imishini yethu yokumba edidiyelwe futhi ehlukanisiwe kanye nama-compressor omoya aphathwayo angasetshenziswa ezimayini ezingaphezulu, enkwalini nasezimayini zemigede, afanele izindawo zokusebenza ezihlukene futhi angahlangabezana nezidingo zakho zamandla ahlukene. Umoya ocindezelwe uvame ukusetshenziswa njengomthombo wamandla ukunika amandla amathuluzi omoya. Umoya ocindezelwe unganikeza okukhiphayo okuphezulu okuthembekile nokusebenzayo okungasetshenziswa ukunika amandla inhlobonhlobo yamathuluzi.
Ama-air compressor avame ukusetshenziswa ezimbonini zezimayini ezifana namalahle ezimayini, imigodi yokumba, ukuhlanzwa kwemvelo, kanye nokuhlinzeka ngomoya ophefumula ngaphansi komhlaba.
