While the compressor system will function without the following accessories,
VMAC strongly recommends their use for optimal performance.
See the “Accessory Product” section of this manual on page 49 for a list of
products available for purchase through VMAC.
Receiver Tank
An air receiver tank provides a buffer as it gives the compressor time to react by
increasing the engine speed and producing air before the tool stalls. It also has the
advantage of lowering the duty cycle of the compressor system.
Pressure Gauge
While not critical to system performance, a pressure gauge is important for fine
tuning the system and simplifies any potential troubleshooting.
Install a 200 psi pressure gauge downstream of the air discharge valve.
Pressure Regulator and/or Lubricator or FRL
The compressor can produce air pressures up to approximately 175 psi
(1207 kPa). It is the responsibility of the user to know the pressure and air flow
requirements of the tools powered by the air compressor system.
An appropriate air pressure regulator and lubricator can be installed downstream
of the air discharge valve. Failure to regulate the air pressure may cause damage
to the tool.
