- Hello to one and all. In the Lab. where I work we are in the process of up-grading much of our equipment. One of the items being removed is an Atlas Copco compressor. I know this is a top make and th

- John, The CFM rating is the air flow rate of Cubic feet /minute. The rating you are seeing are the operating limits of the tank and compressor. The Volume of the tank is about 45 US gallons, and I am

- John, I find it hard to believe that the unit is only 1.5 hp, is it a split phase motor with a capacitor piggy backed on the motor? And you also have to take into consideration the ratio between the

- cfm = cubic feet/MINUTE, not metre. A good rule of thumb is that a compressore will produce 4 to 5 cfm/horsepower, so you should look at the motor to determine it's horsepower. This will be listed on

- Surly kilopond is a contradiction, kilo means 1000, cm2 means square centemeter yes. Is't kilo from the french like 1 kg is 1000 grams, or kW so given a conversion factor 1.422? not shure on that but

- Unfortunately, you cannot use pulleys to change horsepower - it's more or less constant, minus the losses associated with a belt drive. What the pullies change is the speed and, therefore, the torque

- Well, in referring to my Atlas Copco manual, I see that kp/sq cm is listed as a unit of pressure and equals .9807 bar. 1 bar = 14.7 psi, approximately, so 1 kp/sq cm = 14.7*.9807 psi, which equals 14

- Maybe you are misreading what I wrote. I am talking about a kiloPOND, not kiloPOUND. A kilopond is a real, but not often used, unit of force, whereas a kiloPOUND is a non-existent unit that would equ

- A kilopascal (kPa) is different from a kilopond (kp). A Pascal is a unit of pressure (defined as force per unit area), whereas a kp is a unit of force. If the compressor were rated in Pascals, the un
