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.
To Lock Out Power: Place a lock on the line power switch so no one else can
turn on the power.
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.
