FAQs
What is an air compressor and how does it work?
An air compressor is a device that converts power (usually from an electric motor or gasoline engine) into potential energy stored in pressurized air. It works by compressing air into a tank, increasing its pressure, and then releasing it to power various tools or applications.
What are CFM and PSI, and why are they important?
CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) measures the volume of air an air compressor can deliver. PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) measures the air pressure. Both are crucial for matching the compressor to your tools; tools have specific CFM and PSI requirements.
What size air compressor do I need?
The size depends on the tools you’ll be using. Check the tool’s specifications for their CFM and PSI needs, and choose a compressor that meets or exceeds those requirements. Consider also how often you’ll use the tools and for how long.
What are the different types of air compressors?
- Reciprocating (Piston): Uses pistons to compress air. Common for home and small business use.
- Rotary Screw: Uses screws to compress air. More efficient for continuous, heavy-duty use.
- Centrifugal: Uses impellers to compress air. Used for very high-volume industrial applications.
What is the difference between oil-free and oil-lubricated compressors?
Oil-free compressors don’t require oil for lubrication, reducing maintenance. They’re suitable for applications where oil contamination is a concern. Oil-lubricated compressors require oil changes but tend to be more durable and suitable for heavy-duty use.
How do I maintain my air compressor?
Regular maintenance includes:
- Draining the tank to remove condensation.
- Checking and cleaning air filters.
- Changing oil (for oil-lubricated models).
- Inspecting hoses and connections for leaks.
What are the safety precautions when using an air compressor?
Always wear safety glasses or goggles.
Never point the air stream at people or animals.
Ensure proper ventilation.
Regularly check for leaks and damage.
Release air pressure before servicing.
Why is my air compressor leaking water?
Condensation forms inside the tank due to compressed air cooling. This is normal. Regularly drain the tank to remove this water.
What causes my air compressor to overheat?
Possible causes include:
- Dirty air filter restricting airflow
- Low oil level (in oil-lubricated models)
- Overuse or running the compressor in a hot environment
- Faulty components
Can I use an extension cord with my air compressor?
It’s generally not recommended, especially with smaller gauge or long cords, as it can cause voltage drop and damage the motor. If you must, use a heavy-duty, short extension cord of the appropriate gauge.
