Should be in the mage-ohms (you need an isolation tester / high voltage ohm meter for this). Check the voltage when the compressor is running. If the voltage drop significantly when the compressor starts/runs, you have a bad connection somewhere. Check all relays, fuses and electrical connections.
[pdf] If the capacity of the air compressor is really too low, check the following: Check differential pressure over oil separator. Replace separator when necessary. Check and replace compressed air filters (if installed). Compressor does not unload. Check if pressure switch is correctly set and working.
[pdf] A screw air compressor is very similar to a human heart. While a human heart has tricuspid, pulmonary, mitral, and aortic valves, a screw air compressor has four critical valves namely air inlet, minimum pres.
