MAC AFRIC 50 Litre 1.5 KW (2 HP) 230 V Direct Drive Compressor

Important factors to consider when choosing the correct size compressor.

CFM (cubic feet per minute) requirement - Probably the single biggest consideration when choosing the correct compressor. What CFM will your air compressor need to produce in order to supply sufficient airflow at the required pressure for the air tool operation?

RULE OF THUMB - Always multiply your air tool CFM rating by 1.2 to choose the appropriate compressor size.

TANK SIZE - Choosing the correct size tank is very important! With the range of sizes available from 6 litres up to 500 litres it is vitally important that the correct size is chosen for the intended application.

Professional, semi-professional or D.I.Y use - All compressors come with specific warranties to cover DIY /home use or commercial use. Make sure that you choose the correct size compressor for your application.
