Description of Operation
Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.
Off/Auto-On Switch
: Turn this switch to "ON" to provide automatic power to the
pressure switch and "OFF" to shut off the power.
Pressure Switch (not shown)
: The pressure switch automatically starts the
motor when the air tank pressure drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. It
stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure.
Safety Valve
: If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its
"cut-out" pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by
"popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch
"cut-out" setting).
Outlet Pressure Gauge
: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure
available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the
regulator and is always less than or equal to the tank pressure.
Overload Protection Switch
:
Protects motor from overload.
