Sandblasting operations are extremely demanding on some
compressors and can cause a compressor overload or
overheated condition.
We recommend using a compressor that is 5 HP and above
with a minimum of a 12 CFM rating. Refer to your compressor
Owner's Manual and make sure that your compressor can
handle the load of sandblasting. If the compressor can, you
must follow these setup recommendations:
Keep your compressor completely isolated from your
sandblasting environment, or keep the work area downwind
from the compressor. Airborne abrasive dust will destroy rings,
pistons, valves, and bearings.
Increase the maintenance interval of your compressor if using
it in sandblasting operations.
