ABOUT COMPRESSOR DUTY CYCLE:

Compressor Duty Cycle refers to amount of time a compressor 

can be operated in a given time period, at 100 PSI & at a 

standard ambient temperature of 72°F. 

Duty Cycle is commonly expressed as:

Compressor On Time / (Compressor On Time + Off Time)

As an example, a compressor that is rated for 20% duty cycle 

means that compressor can be operated at 100 PSI @ 72°F 

for 8 Minutes and rested for 32 Minutes.

8 min. on / (8 min. on + 32 min. off) = 20% Duty Cycle

ABOUT RATED WORKING PRESSURE:

To ensure trouble free service life of your compressor, always 

operate compressor within rated working pressure of the 

compressor.  Never use a pressure switch with a higher 

cut-off pressure than compressor’s rated working pressure.
