What is a Swash Ring: Hi Could someone please explain what is a swash ring and what it does in an air compressor?

Viviana, A swash ring is part of what drives the pistons in one design of compressor commonly used in automotive AC systems. The swash ring is coupled to the compressor main shaft and each piston, and its function is partly analogous to the function of the cranks on a crankshaft, but the design is usually lighter, more compact and more readily adaptable to continuously variable displacement.

Well, I saw some videos on YouTube about how air sled movers are used... And if what you want to do is to lift appliances softly this devices could help. But honestly, all your idea does not make good sense for me. This device was designed as an AC-motor speed regulator, just like those used in drills, saws, fans, heaters, or even as light dimmers (with a proper bulb, of course). Well, this is what i can say. Greetings from Mexico :-P

Sorry that I can't answer your question regarding the fuse. I was only able to use my compressor twice. The second time I used it to put air into an exercise ball and the compressor caught fire. I did talk to the seller and was told they'd never had this happen. Since it was past the 90 days they wouldn't exchange the compressor. Needless to say I was very disappointed in the performance of the compressor and the lack of customer service.

The male end extending from the threaded base is an air hose snap on connector. It fits the fill end on the air compressors hose. This makes the connection permanent so the operator can then go and open and close valves during the winterizing operation. Sort of a third hand so to speak. The compressor will continue to run pressurizing the water piping while you see that all lines are purged of water.The small compressors you speak of are equipped with a female Schrader valve end to fit tires. There are items like this that will fit to the Schrader ends but you must stand and hold them in place-- The male end extending from the threaded base is an air hose snap on connector.

its an hr valve, see here, http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?i=39403 and here, http://www.halkeyroberts.com/products/inflation/boat-valves/690-nsbvg-boat-valve.aspx, they're slick in how they work just don't loose the adapter, cause then you're probably screwed.

Yes it is dual action. This refers to the stylist only. It has nothing to do with the compressor. Air comes out of the stylist when system is turned on(continuous airflow) but makeup only comes out when you pull back the lever.

As far as I know, it is more for automotive type applications. You have to have an air compressor to run it.

The bulb is mounted on the ring. As such the swivel action does move the bulb.

It's a jewelry cleaner. It's super easy. Add water and plug it in. I add my rings at the same time.

DONT BUY IT it is a pos! no size compressor (we have up to an industrial 10hp with a 400 gal tank) works with mine and half the time won't even turn with up to 150 psi DONT BUY IT waste of $ and aa continuing frustration in spite of having a new tool rebuilt still does not work if you still want one give me three six oh a 3 oh 3 call I will1 four sell three mine cheap2!

Dear Nann, I am not a mechanic. So my requirements are not stringent. I used a small Porter Cable pancake compressor, to remove stubborn bolts off a car and mower. The air impact does get them off. I had been attempting for days to removes these bolts. I tried PB blaster, with no avail and this unit saved me hours of work. I would not use for torquing down. I use a torque wrench, to make sure each bolt is torqued to its specification. Hope this helped. I would recommend you contact Ingersoll Rand and ask what minimal pressure is required for these units. Especially the Air rachet. Dear Nann, I am not a mechanic.

Good question. Don't know for sure. It's a great compressor! Very tight and does not lose air.

I would not run this compressor standing up. Water condensation will not make it to the tank. Instead water ends up in the pressure switch or worse yet in the compressor. Air can be compressed. Water cannot. Let's see now will water inside a high speed air compressor severely damage it and damage it so that warranty will not cover it? What say you?

The compressor is excellent for any work, painting, sandblasting and I guess for connecting a pneumatic tool bede not have any problems ... the compressor load your tank up to 200 pounds of pressure and has a regulator that gives the ability to deliver this pressure of 200 to 0 lbras.

I never used the compressor. I returned it. I inflate the bags manually when ever I am going to tow something. I just use my garage compressor. I bleed it the same way.

The tool is a vacuum pump, not an air compressor. You need AC gauge lines to use the pump correctly.
