Duty Cycle; Specifications - Porter-Cable D26126-024-0 Instruction Manual

SCFM or CFM: Standard Cubic Feet per Minute; a unit of measurement of
air delivery.
PSIG or PSI: Pounds per square inch gauge.
CUT-IN PRESSURE: While the motor is off, air tank pressure drops as you
continue to use your accessory or air tool. When the tank pressure drops to a
certain low level the motor will restart automatically. The low pressure at
which the motor automatically restarts is called "cut-in pressure."
CUT-OUT PRESSURE: When you turn on your air compressor and it begins
to run, air pressure in the air tank begins to build. It builds to a certain high
pressure before the motor automatically shuts off - protecting your air tank
from pressure higher than its capacity. The high pressure at which the motor
shuts off is called "cut-out pressure."
CODE CERTIFICATION: Products that bear one or more of the following
marks: UL, CUL, ETL, CETL, have been evaluated by OSHA certified
indepenent safety laboratories and meet the applicable Underwriters
Laboratories Standards for Safety.
Porter-Cable air compressors should be operated on not more than a 50%
duty cycle. This means an air compressor that pumps air more than 50% of
one hour is considered misused, because the air compressor is undersized
for the required air demand. Maximum compressor pumping time per hour is
30 minutes.

* A circuit breaker is preferred. Use only a fuse or circuit breaker that is the
same rating as the branch circuit on which the air compressor is operated. If
compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only time
delay fuses. Time delay fuses should be marked "D" in Canada and "T" in
the US.
