Common Air Compressor Specifications Explained

The world of air compressors can be a bit tricky to navigate, especially with the many acronyms, data points, and specifications that abound. That's where we come in.

  • CFM, or cubic feet per minute, is the compressor’s flow rate, or the amount of air that a compressor can produce at a given pressure level. This is the compressor’s capacity rating and is tied with PSI as the most important specification to consider when selecting a compressor.
  • PSI, or pounds per square inch, is the amount of force that an air compressor can deliver. This is the pressure rating of the compressor and is tied with CFM as the most important specification to consider when selecting a compressor.
  • HP, or horsepower, is the amount of work that a motor can perform. HP is not as important as pressure and flow in determining if your compressor will work for you, given that it’s not the most accurate measurement of how much air a compressor can produce.
