You're in the market for a new air compressor There are some things you'll need to know so you can find the air compressor that best fits your needs and your budget.
What brand of air compressor do you choose? Is oil-free or oil-bath best? Will I need a two-stage unit or is a single-stage unit sufficient? How much CFM will I require? How much PSI will I need? If you're a contractor or use your air compressor in an industrial or commercial application, solid build quality, longevity and a reputable brand name should be key in your decision making process.
Not to say this is unimportant for the homeowner or hobbyist, but there is a compressor for every demand and job out there; the more you know going into it, the easier it'll be when you're at the outlet about to make your purchase! If you're using the compressor to spray paint or sand blast, for instance, you'll probably want to get an oil-free unit, this way you won't have to worry about moisture getting into the line and mixing with your air.
Oil-free units are great and very convenient as there is virtually no maintenance to worry about Oil-bath units are always recommended for longevity, and they simply put out a heck of a lot more CFM than any oil-free unit will be able to manage producing.
Most contractors and all industrial applications and commercial garages demand a heavy-duty oil-bath air compressor as it will put out the CFM you need and will simply last a lot longer than any oil-free unit will. However, if you're a small contractor that has one or two workers, an oil-free unit may be sufficient.
If you're simply using a trim gun to install trim in a kitchen, this doesn't demand high CFM so you can probably get away with using a smaller oil-free unit. CFM or Cubic Feet per Minute is probably the most important specification you'll need to know when choosing an air compressor. Your application, whether it be a roofing nail gun, sand blaster or die grinder, will have a CFM requirement specification you can find this in the manual for your tool.
You need to choose an air compressor that at least meets that minimum CFM output. If an air compressor doesn't have the required CFM for your tool, it was run constantly and you risk burning the motor, pump or both, and your application will suffer for it as well. The CFM spec is related to duty cycle of a unit so we'll discuss that this term means now.
It is commonly expressed in percentage format:. Please Note: All compressors, regardless of rated duty cycle, require sufficient rest time in between cycles to allow for partial or complete heat dissipation.
Heat dissipation rates may vary depending on ambient temperatures and operating conditions. Any typical air compressor puts out at least PSI, which is sufficient to run any nail gun, grinder or blow gun. The different between single-stage units and two-stage units pretty simple.
It doesn't have anything to do with the number of cylinders or heads the pump has. The main practical difference between the two is that a single-stage unit will [typically] operate at a lower PSI max PSI whereas a two-stage unit will operate at to PSI. Also, a two-stage unit will recycle quicker pump up quicker and has a higher CFM rating than a single-stage unit.
For most homeowners and hobbyists that are using small nail guns, blow guns or pumping up beach balls, a single-stage unit is definitely sufficient. Even most small contractors can get away with using single-stage units if they have a small crew. And, sometimes buying cheap is worth it if you don't use the air compressor often, so what if the valves crack or piston ring s wear out?
You can probably buy a replacement for the same amount as a repair would cost I get it. However, it most cases it is certainly worth it to increase your budget and buy a unit manufactured by a reputable brand you trust; I'm thinking Campbell Hausfeld, Rolair, Jenny, Champion, Ingersol Rand and Coleman Powermate. Not only will these units typically be of a higher quality, but it's worth it just for the fact that most but not all units made by these manufacturers have replacement parts available, and offer great warranties.
They also usually have a large network of authorized service centers available nationwide, so when you need to have the unit repaired, it's convenient to do so. It's the old adage, spend more now so you won't have to down the road. I hope this beginner's guide to purchasing your first air compressor gave you some helpful advice and provided clear insight. The more you know going into the purchase the better, and knowing what you need will save you money now and later. If you're not sure your old compressor is performing like it should or if you're just shopping for a new compressor, here's how so you can go in one step ahead!
Air compressors for residential and most commercial uses have notoriously inflated horsepower ratings. The specs and stickers on the unit are not always accurate, and add confusion instead of critical information to buying decisions. The way to measure true power is to measure the time it takes to pump the reservoir tank of known volume from a known starting pressure to a known ending pressure. Then you can figure the true CFM from the difference in starting and final pressures, times the volume of the tank, divided by the time it took to pump up.
You can also time the pump-up cycle from the cut-in to the cut-out pressure, since that's how one usually runs a compressor. These true performance measurements are impossible to fake. Note: Any motorized device that takes power from a VAC outlet, surely delivers less than about 2 HP, and likely far less.
Standard AC cords are limited to 15 amps of current, or about watts. Note: CFM ratings are meaningless without an associated delivery pressure.
