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labo-
ratories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lower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.
DUTY CYCLE
Thisaircompressorpumpiscapableofrunningcontinuously.However,to
prolong the life of your air compressor, it is recommended that a 50%-75%
average duty cycle be maintained; that is, the air compressor pump should not
run more than 30-45 minutes in any given hour.
