Check Valve:
When the air
compressor is
operating, the
check valve is
"open", allowing
compressed air
to enter the air
tank. When the
air compressor
reaches "cut-
out" pressure, the check valve "clos-
es", allowing air pressure to remain
inside the air tank.
Pressure Release Valve: The pres-
sure release valve located on the side
of the pressure switch, is designed to
automatically release compressed air
from the compressor head and the
outlet tube when the air compressor
reaches "cut-out" pressure or is shut
off. The pressure release valve allows
the motor to restart freely. When the
motor stops running, air will be heard
escaping from this valve for a few sec-
onds. No air should be heard leaking
when the motor is running or after the
unit reaches "cut-out" pressure.
