Linsheng Electrical Company -Portable Air Compressor Terminology: 3 Things
The terminology used in the compressor market and the differences between different types of compressors make it very easy to choose the top compressor for a specific compressor.
Technical terms:
When deciding to buy a compressor, it is important to be familiar with all compressor technical terms. Although the number of compressor types is usually very large, it is easy to choose a suitable unit by asking some basic questions.
1. Performance level:
Matching one or more pneumatic tools to standard cubic feet per minute and PSI requirements is critical to the output capacity of the air compressor. Standard cubic feet per minute or SCFM is the rate of how much air the compressor can produce in one minute. All tools driven by a compressor are provided with SCFM values; this value will indicate the gas source necessary for optimal tool operation. Therefore, when matching the SCFM rating of your air compressor, check the... less

However, it is important to determine the CFM of any unit depends on its psi range.
When calculating CFM measurements for two units, it is important that both units have the same psi rating. If they are different, your calculation will be wrong. In order to make things easier, here is a simple process for CFM measurement of an air compressor.
Check the size of the standard cubic feet per minute of the air compressor. Please note that SCFM is usually measured at 14.5 PSIA at 68 degrees Fahrenheit and 0% humidity level. In case this is too complicated for you, please use only the CFM measures of various air compressors. But everything should remain the same.
After mastering the SCFM metrics for each tool, add up the numbers and increase them by 30%. Therefore, you have enough space to use. The final calculation will provide you with an accurate metric, the... less
