CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

110V Operation

 

Grounding

 

 

 

The Model H3370/H3371 Air Compressor is wired for 110/120V, single-phase opera- tion only. The maximum amperage draw for the machine is 17 amps, with a fusing level rating of 20 amps.

It is best to operate a compressor on a dedicated circuit, i.e. a circuit where there are no other electrical appliances plugged in. The fuse requirements above assume the use of a circuit breaker or a slow-blow fuse. If an unusual load does not exist and the compressor still breaks the circuit, con- tact a qualified electrician or our service department at (570) 546-9663.

Extension Cords

If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with your compressor, make sure the cord is rated Standard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to the chart in the standard safety instructions to determine the mini- mum gauge for the extension cord. The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged.

Overheating, short circuit and fire damage will result from inadequate wiring. Follow the guidelines in this section.

In the event of an electrical short, ground- ing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to dis- perse electric current. These machines are equipped with power cords having an equipment-grounding conductor. See Figure 1. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Potential for electrical shock hazard, this equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you use is actually grounded.
