It stops the motor when the air tank
pressure reaches the factory set
"cut-out" pressure.
Safety Valve :
If the pressure switch
does not shut off the air compressor at
its "cutout" pressure setting, the safety
valve will protect against high pressure
by "popping out" at its factory set
pressure (slightly higher than the
pressure switch "cut-out" setting).
Tank Pressure Gauge:
The tank
pressure gauge indicates the reserve
air pressure in the tank.
Outlet Pressure Gauge:
The outlet
pressure gauge indicates the air
pressure available at the outlet side of
the regulator. This pressure is
controlled by the regulator and is
always less than or equal to the tank
pressure.
Regulator Knob:
Controls the air
pressure shown on the outlet pressure
gauge. Turn regulator knob clockwise
to increase pressure and
counterclockwise to decrease
pressure.
Cooling System (not shown):
This
compressor contains an advanced
design cooling system. At the heart of
this cooling system is an engineered
fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan to
blow air through the vent holes in
large amounts. You know that the
cooling system is working when air is
being expelled.
Air Compressor Pump (not
shown):
Compresses air into the air
tank. Working air is not available until
the compressor has raised the air tank
pressure above that required at the air
outlet.
Drain Valve :
The drain valve is
located at the base of the air tank and
is used to drain condensation at the
end of each use.
Check Valve:
When the air
compressor is operating, the check
valve is "open", allowing compressed
air to enter the air tank. When the air
compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure,
the check valve "closes", allowing air
pressure to remain inside the air tank.
