Can this air compressor be used to blow dust out of a desktop computer?

Yes, absolutely. You just need a blower nozzle, and make sure you don't have any loose papers around!

I am a high school technology director and we use this compressor to clean computers. We are thrilled with how much quieter it is than our previous compressor. It is definitely powerful too.

For occasional and light duty work I would say yes. The compressor is very quiet and yet has quick recovery and holds good pressure. I would not agree to professional or prolonged use with a spray gun or any high cfm consumption tools. This handles my nail guns and airs an occasional tire with ease.

Hi Jamie. No, you cannot. But it's a powerful desktop fan. I hope this helps.

I have been told in the past that it is not a good idea to blow the dust around inside the computer. Instead, it should be vacuumed out.

It will do it, but the compressor will just run a lot more to replenish the air if you have of lot cleaning to do with it.

I don't believe that this compressor can drive air tools of that type. The only air tools that I've used with this unit is smaller paint spraying guns, inflating tires and multiple sizes of air nail guns. That's a good question and I would suggest going to the Bositich web site and sending that question to the Customer Service / Tech Help via the Contacts link. This is a really good compressor, it's fast, designed very well and it's not as loud as prior units that I use to own.

It's a horrible idea to use this fan to get air into a room to be honest. This is simply a computer fan, and the dust and dirt it will pull it from outside will ruin itself. Its also just 120mm, perfect in a computer situation but not for a house... Yes, in theory your configuration would work though.

I don't see why not. I personally haven't run any air tools. Just my airbrush guns.....

I doubt it. For applications that need continuous airflow you really need a larger compressor. Check the tool you want to use, which will tell you the flow rate (cubic ft per minute) for the compressor you need.

Personally I did not think much of this item and I eventually returned it. I was only using for maintaining the air pressure for my car and bikes. The compressor would run out of air much faster than blow up a single tire, so this did not work for me. Possibly if you have a different use in mind it will work for you.

Okay, for the love of all that is holy, DO NOT use a damn leaf blower to blow out a PC. That's just a wee bit too powerful for all of the components.

Umm, seriously? Hello? Air powered tools require compressed air. Duh If you have another source of compressed air other than an air compressor, go for it.

This is only a duster. They (the same company) make a vacuum that can blow air as well, but it is not a powerful.

I have only used it to blow debris and dust out of filters, etc., but I believe it would work. I have liked mine.

No, 'fraid not. This vac is primarily for stairs. Only attachment is a wand. I feel your pain with the computer mess. I have a little DeWalt rechargeable/corded vac. If it sucked like a good vac, it'd be close to ideal.

Any compressor will work, I use a PC Pancake for small jobs and a PC Job Boss for larger ones.The reason is simple, I prefer to have a larger capacity so that the compressor is not running all of the time.Good Luck
