The air compressor pressure switch measures the pressure inside your air tank and then is used to turn on the air compressor when the air pressure reaches the cut-on pressure setting and then shut off your compressor when your air tank reaches the air pressure cut-off setting.
Most air compressors use a pressure switch pre-set from the factory for 95 psi cut-on and 125 psi cut-off settings or 95 psi cut-on and 175 psi cut-off settings. The pressure switches have a 30-65 psi differential setting which allows you to set the pressure switch for custom pressure settings. Please refer to the owners manual for proper settings for the air compressor.
