Oil Lubricated
Portable Air
Compressors
Description
The Campbell Hausfeld portable contractor air compressor is intended for use in construction and workshop conditions. An oil lubricated, electric motor driven compressor provides compressed air to power nailers, staplers, paint guns and other air tools. The compressed air produced by the unit will contain traces of oil and water.
A pressure switch shuts off the compressor when the tank is filled to 125 PSI. When air is used and the tank pressure drops to 100 PSI, the compressor will restart automatically. The regulator may be set to provide a line pressure lower than the tank pressure.
The valve on the compressor outlet fitting vents air for ease in motor startup.
NOTICE | The sound of vented |
air is especially |
noticeable when the tank pressure is low and is not a defect.
The pressure switch also has an unloader valve to vent air when the compressor stops.
