A neighbor call me to look at his air compressor that had quit.
The motor had burned up. It's 230V, 15 amp with no hp rating, it apears to be 3hp, the pressure switch had no rating printed on it, I don't belive that the contacts were large enough to carry that much load.
I put on a new 3hp motor and added a 25amp relay. After putting this all togather and listening to it run, it didn't seam to have the deep throughted sound that most compressors of this size have (3hp V-2). I checked the air breather, each cylinder
has a pot metal filter container with 3 inlet tubes about 5/16 ID. each of these 6 tubes had been pluger by a Mud Dauber.
It pays to check your equipment.
