COMPRESSOR COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
⦁
PRESSURE SWITCH (240V & 415V models only): This
switch is located on the top of the air receiver and
functions as a manual on/off switch in addition to
automatically stopping and starting the compressor
at factory pre-set pressures (electric models only).
⦁
PRESSURE GAUGE: The Pressure Gauge is located
on the air receiver and indicates the pressure held in
both PSI and KPA.
⦁
SAFETY VALVE: The Safety Valve is located on the
air receiver and is designed to release pressure in the
event of a pressure switch failure.
⦁
OVERLOAD PROTECTION: Electric models are fitted
with an overload protector, to protect the motor in
the event of an over temperature condition. These
reset buttons are located either on the pressure
switch or the motor itself.
⦁
CHECK VALVE (240V & 415V models only): The
Check Valve is located at the junction of the pump
discharge pipe and the air receiver. The check valve
prevents air pressure returning from the air receiver
to the pump.
⦁
EASY START VALVE: (Petrol/Diesel models only) The
Easy Start Valve is located on the check valve for
portable units and on the compressor platform for
stationary units. This valve should be opened for ease
of starting of the engine and closed when running for
