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 58 for a list of
products available for purchase through VMAC.
Larger Air Receiver Tank
A larger capacity air receiver tank provides a larger 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.
(This application requires a minimum air receiver tank size of 6 USG).
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 150 psi
(1035 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.
