The engine has a power of 0,8kW and 1400rpm. The compressor is a single-piston. The engine is connected to the compressor with a clutch.
The tank has a capacity of 24 liters. That is why the compressor isn't a good solution when painting is needed. Although, it quickly gets pressure, which is important when pumping the wheels.
The compressor gives 6,5 bars. Also a pressure switch and a pressure regulator are included to the compressor.
The whole electrics were self made. Electrical switch controls the contactor SM-1 and it is connected to the pressure switch.
The pressure switch is set to turn on the engine at 3 bar, and turn it off at 5 bar.
