Anyone who works together or helps maintain an industrial air compressor should have these valuable compressor related formulas. Print them out whilst them handy...you might need considered one of them next week!

1. Formula To Find: Belt Length
Compressor Flywheel OD + Motor Pulley OD X 1.57 + 2 X Shaft's Center To Center Distance In Inches

Top+7+Air+Compressor+Related+Formulas
Top 7 Air Compressor Related Formulas

2. Formula To Find: Motor Pulley OD
Compressor Flywheel OD X Compressor Rpm's / Motor Rpm's

3. Formula To Find: Tank OD
Measure Circumference / 3.1416

4. Formula To Find: Volume Of Tank In Gallons
Tank OD X OD X.785 X Tank Length In Inches / 231

5. Formula To Find: PSIA Pressure
14.7 + Gauge Pressure

6. Formula To Find: Compressor CFM Using Time Method
Tank Gallons X.536 X PSIG Increase / Total Seconds

7. Formula To Find: Motor Max AMP Draw Before Damage Begins
Motor Data Plate AMPS X Data Plate Service Factor

FORMULA SYMBOLS & DEFINITIONS:

/ = divide

X = multiply

+ = add

AMPS = Abbreviation in the plural for Ampere, a unit of electrical current

CFM or cfm = Abbreviation of Cubic feet for each minute - a unit of measurement of the flow of the air/gas or liquid that indicates just how much volume in cubic feet pass by the stationary point in a single minute.

OD = Abbreviation for Outside diameter can be a dimension commonly employed to specify the sized tubing or pipe.

PSIA or psia = Abbreviation for Pounds per square inch absolute (including atmospheric pressure)

PSIGor psig = Abbreviation for Pounds per Square Inch Gauge

RPM or rpm = Abbreviation for Revolutions for each minute can be a unit of frequency of rotation: the number of full rotations completed in a minute around a fixed axis. It can be used as being a measure of rotational speed of an mechanical component.
