Glossary
CFM:
Cubic feet per minute.
SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure
for air delivery.
PSlG:
Pounds per square inch gauge; a unit of measure
for pressure.
ASME: American
Society
of
Mechanical
Engineers.
California
Code: Unit may comply with California Code
462 (I) (2)/(M) (2).
Cut-In Pressure:
The air compressor will automatically
start to refill the tank when the pressure drops
below the prescribed minimum.
Cut-Out Pressure:
The point at which the motor stops
when the tank has reached maximum air pressure.
Code Certification:
Products that bear one or more of
the following marks: UL, CUL, ETL, CETL, have
been evaluated
by OSHA certified
independent
safety
laboratories
and
meet
the
applicable
Underwriters Laboratories Standards for Safety.
Duty Cycle
This air compressor
pump
should
not run more than
check for restrictions in the air line, use a larger diameter
30 minutes of one hour. If the pump runs more than the
hose, or purchase an air compressor that better matches
50% of the duty cycle then the air requirement is greater

Description of Operation
Drain Valve: Used to drain condensation from the air tank.
Located at bottom of tank.
Motor Thermal Overload:
The motor has an automatic
thermal overload
protector.
If the motor overheats,
this
protector wilt shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed
30 minutes to cool before restarting
or press the reset
button on the motor if applicable (not shown).
Pressure Switch: This controls the power to the motor and
also the cut-in/cut-out pressure settings. This switch serves
as the Auto-On/Off positions for the unit.
Air Intake Filter: Provides clean air to the pump and must
always be kept free of debris. Check on a daily basis or
before each use. Picture shown in assembly section.
Air Compressor
Pump: Oil free direct driven pump that
compresses air which is distributed to the tank (not shown).
Check Valve: When the pump is not in operation the valve
closes to retain air pressure inside the tank. An internal
component.
