- Max Pressure : 8 Bar / 115 PSI: Offers suitable pressure for a wide range of domestic and semi-professional applications.
- Air Displacement : 30 L/min: Ensures a consistent and steady supply of compressed air.
- Cylinder Size : 51mm x 1: Single-cylinder configuration provides reliable performance with low maintenance.
- Compact & Portable Design : Easy to move and store, ideal for space-constrained areas.
Applications
:- DIY Workshops & Home Garages : Perfect for light air tool usage, inflating tyres, and cleaning with compressed air.
- Service & Repair Shops : Provides steady pressure for precision air tools, airbrushing, or minor repairs.
- Small Industrial Setups : Useful for bench operations where low air volume is sufficient.
- Hobby Use : Ideal for crafting, model making, or other low-pressure air requirements.
Usage
:Usage
Safety First
- Always read and understand the user manual before operation.
- Wear appropriate safety gear: goggles, gloves, and hearing protection.
- Use the air pump in a well-ventilated, dry area, away from flammable materials.
- Ensure all guards (e.g., belt guard) are in place before starting.
Setup
- Mount the pump securely on a flat, vibration-free surface.
- Ensure the pump is aligned correctly with the motor using the belt drive.
- Check oil level in the crankcase (if oil-lubricated) before starting.
- Verify that all bolts, fittings, and connections are tight and secure.
Starting the Pump
- Connect the pump to a compatible 1HP electric motor with the correct pulley alignment and belt tension.
- Turn ON the motor and allow the pump to build pressure gradually.
- Monitor the pressure gauge if connected to a tank or compressor system.
Operating the Pump
- Ensure the belt tension is optimal during operation to prevent slippage or wear.
- Operate the pump within its rated pressure and duty cycle.
- Avoid continuous operation beyond its designed cycle; allow cooling periods.
- Use with a compatible air tank and regulator for controlled output pressure.
Shutting Down
- Turn off the motor powering the pump.
- Release any residual pressure from the system.
- Disconnect power if performing maintenance or inspection.
Maintenance
Daily Maintenance
- Check oil level and refill if necessary (use compressor-grade oil like SAE 30).
- Inspect for leaks: air or oil.
- Listen for unusual noises indicating mechanical wear or looseness.
- Drain any moisture from the connected air tank.
Weekly Maintenance
- Clean the air filter: use compressed air to remove dust or replace if heavily soiled.
- Inspect belt condition: look for cracks, frays, or signs of wear.
- Check bolt tightness: especially mounting bolts and pulley fasteners.
Monthly Maintenance
- Inspect pulley alignment and belt tension; adjust if needed.
- Check oil quality and color: if dark, contaminated, or emulsified, replace it.
- Examine the intake and exhaust valves for any blockage or buildup.
Oil Change (Every 3 Months or 100 Hours)
- Warm up the pump for 2–3 minutes to thin the oil.
- Turn off and unplug the power source.
- Remove the oil drain plug and drain oil into a container.
- Refit the plug securely and refill with fresh compressor oil.
- Avoid overfilling—use the sight glass or dipstick to check the correct level.
Annual Maintenance
- Deep clean the pump’s cooling fins to ensure proper heat dissipation.
- Inspect for internal wear, corrosion, or damage (by a technician if needed).
- Replace worn-out belts, gaskets, or filters.
- Have a technician perform a full operational test if used regularly in industrial environments.
Storage Tips
- If not in use for a long time : Drain all oil and moisture, Cover the pump to protect from dust, Store in a dry, cool place away from corrosive materials, Disconnect from the motor or power source.
