how to check the capacity of the compressor

by Dhinakaran
(Chennai,Tamil Nadu,India)

My compressor is 550 CFM of multi stage.

Hi Dhinakaran. I've received a lot of questions from India lately. Nice to hear from you, and from your compatriots.

I am, however, confused by the question. You want to check the capacity of your air compressor. What capacity... tank size, upper pressure level, flow at a certain PSI... what capacity?

I can tell you that you will generate around 4 CFM of compressed air at 90 PSI for every HP of motor size. Does this help?

Cheers,

Bill
