GLOSSARY
Become familiar with these terms before operating the unit.
CFM: Cubic feet per minute.
SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure of air delivery.
PSIG: Pounds per square inch gauge; a unit of measure of pressure.
Code Certification: Products that bear one or more of the following marks: UL
®
,
CUL, ETL
®
, CETL, have been evaluated by OSHA certified independent safety
laboratories and meet the applicable Standards for Safety.
Cut-In Pressure:Whilethemotorisoff,airtankpressuredropsasyoucontinue
touseyouraccessory. Whenthetankpressuredropstoacertainlowlevelthe
motor will restart automatically. The low pressure at which the motor automatically
restarts is called "cut-in" pressure.
Cut-Out Pressure:Whenanair compressoristurnedon andbeginstorun, air
pressure in the air tank begins to build. It builds to a certain high pressure before
the motor automatically shuts off - protecting your air tank from pressure higher
than its capacity. The high pressure at which the motor shuts off is called "cut-out"
pressure.
Branch Circuit: Circuit carrying electricity from electrical panel to outlet.
