Duty Cycle is commonly expressed in percentile as: compressor on time (compressor on time + off time) %. As an example, a compressor that is rated for 25% duty cycle means that compressor can be operated at: 100 PSI @ 72°F for 10 minutes on and 30 minutes off. 10 min. on / (10 min. on + 30 Min. off) = 10 min. / 40 Min = 25% duty cycle. 1-Year Limited Warranty VIAIR Corporation warrants this product, when properly installed and under normal conditions of use, to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of one (1) year from its original date of purchase.

  • Viair Compressor is better than Vixen
I had a Vixen compressor for 5 months. It failed. Should have bought this one first. Vixen hassled me by making me pay for return shipping, even though I knew the part I needed to repair it. Vixen said they didn’t carry spare parts!! So this Viair pump (as you can see in photos) is bigger and heavier. I’ll update if it doesn’t last. But it’s got better ratings than Vixen Horns garbage. Buy the Viair. ... show more

  • Seems pretty tough
This replaces a small Firestone compressor and 1/2 gal tank in an RV that filled of use airbags. I set this up with a 2 gallon tank for the airbags, to fill tires after airing down, and to run an air-pressured drinking water system. I used a 90psi on/120psi off pressure switch on a 30 amp fused circuit from the coach batteries. It claims 100% duty cycle; we shall see. I'm headed to Baja and I'm sure it will get plenty of use. It's mounted in one of the lower storage compartments, so, I like the remote mount air filter (it comes w/ 2 extra filters) It is much quieter and cycles less. It also comes with mounting bolts, though I used something different. I'll update if it doesn't perform. ... show more

  • Running air system on a John Deere planter
Used this to replace a smaller compressor on a John Deere planter. The compressor does a great job keeping up with the air demands.

  • Great compressor
Well made, easy to install and runs relatively quietly. The price made this a great value.

  • Installed on our Case IH planter.
Had to replace the compressor on our Case IH 1250 planter. Hope this will last a lot longer than the one from case. This was also over $100 cheaper than the one from case. I also went with this 450 versus the 350 that you would get from case.

  • Working good so far
I got this to replace a little vixen pump that failed after 2 years. Hopefully this lasts longer, I have heard these are rebuildable though so that's nice.

  • Great product.
This is my second compressor from this company. This purchase was an upgrade from my first purchase. I am very satisfied with the performance of this unit. I use it on my service truck to run impact tools air rachets and to inflate tires on heavy equipment. I love it.
