Coleman Air Compressor Terminology
By: MJ Marks
Recently I was shopping around for a Coleman air compressor for my husband for Christmas, and quickly got confused! CFM and PSI, single stage and two stage compressors, different phase electric motors; the terminology was a bit over my head. I thought of asking my husband, but that would be a quick give away as to what I was thinking of purchasing. So I started doing some research to gain a bit of understanding. Some information was just over my head, it was like I pulled out an engineering text book! But I soon found the information that I needed and decided to pass it on, in an easy to understand way, to help anyone else that may find themselves in a similar situation.
PSI – this stands for Pounds per square inch, and in a Coleman air compressor this is important because it tells you how much pressure is delivered to the tool by the air compressor. So before buying an air compressor, it is important to know how much pressure your tool requires, and make sure the compressor you purchase will do the job. If you have multiple tools, cater to the one that requires the most pressure. Also, remember to look ahead to tools you plan to purchase.
CFM - this is an abbreviation for cubic feet per minute and is the volume of air that the compressor delivers to the tool. A compressor with a high CFM will last longer before recharging.
Single Stage Compressor – this type of Coleman air compressor can have either one or more air cylinders. If there is more than one cylinder, then they are both the same size. The main thing to remember about a single stage compressor is that it should not be used on tools that require more than 100 PSI to operate unless that tool is only used intermittently. These are good for the home owner who uses his compressor occasionally, or just around the home.
