1.5 System

The compressor system is protected from over pressurization by a
mechanical inlet control in the compressor that regulates airflow in
response to the demand. There is also a 200 PSI (1,379 kPa)
pressure relief valve in the air/oil separation tank to protect the
system from over pressurization. If the oil temperature exceeds
290°F (143°C) the clutch is disengaged, draining the high-pressure
air and reducing the load on the engine.
VMAC recommends the use of certified and approved high
performance synthetic oil which is used to lubricate the compressor.
The air/oil separator tank removes most of the oil from the
compressed air and the coalescing separating filter removes the
remaining oil. The oil is passed through a replaceable filter to remove
contaminants.
The compressor intake is equipped with a replaceable paper air filter
element.
