    The Mensor Model 73 Shop Air Pressure Booster generates 325 psi to 750 psi using a 70 psi to 150 psi clean dry shop air source. The Model 73 consists of a single 5 to 1 pressure boost stage with limits for speed control and maximum output pressure control. To achieve the 325 psi output, a minimum supply of approximately 70 psi is required.
  • Page 4 PORTS, CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS There are two pressure ports on the rear of the Model 73 chassis. The input pressure port is designed for a shop air supply which functions as the drive pressure as well as the output media.

    sufficient capacity (flow) to maintain the input pressure setting. Failure to do so may cause the booster to short cycle and not be able to achieve the desired output pressure. If external regulators are in line with the shop air supply, make sure that they do not restrict the input flow.

    1. Valve off any pressure going to the “INPUT PRESSURE” port. Disconnect the supply gas if desired. Alternately, the Regulator Pressure knob can be adjusted until the regulator pressure reads zero. 2. With the input pressure shut off, slowly vent the output pressure by cracking the output connector to let the pressure slowly release or by continually cycling the controller between an acceptable control pressure and vent until pressure is drained.

Make sure that the o-ring seal for the bowl is properly positioned, replace the bowl and tighten the ring nut by hand. The Haskel recommended maintenance schedule is listed in the appendix.
