Operation 

2.5.1 

Turn on/off air compressor 

Make sure that the power supply voltage is the same with what’s indicated on 
the data label: 230V/50 Hz or 115V/60 Hz. Use only 3-pole receptacles that 
accept the compressor’s plug.   

The on/off switch is located on the top of the pressure switch (see Figure 4). 
To switch the unit on, turn the switch to position “1”. When switched on, the 
compressor starts to build up pressure until the tank reaches the maximum 
allowed pressure (8 bar/120 psi). The unit will then be automatically 
switched off until air is used and the pressure in the tank drops to the 
minimum operating pressure (6 bar/90 psi), at which point the compressor 
automatically switches on.

2.5.2 

Adjusting the outlet pressure 

Outlet pressure can be adjusted using the knob on the filter/regulator so that 
the air output is enough for the application, but the output will not exceed the 
maximum air pressure specified by the application. Turn the knob clockwise 
to increase the pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.  

 

2.5.3 

Air compressor operations 

When properly installed, the compressor will operate within less than 50% 
duty cycle. Check air connections and leaks regularly to prevent overheating 
caused by compressor operating with larger than 50% duty cycle. Contact 
Newport technical support if the air compressor is operating with larger than 
50% duty cycle.
