This test is performed to ensure that there are no leaks in the piping, compressor, or other pressure containing parts of the package. All openings in the completed compressor package are plugged and the unit is pressurized with nitrogen to 350 psig.
[pdf] Diesel air compressors are a reliable and efficient way to get the PSI you need. Pounds per square inch (PSI) and cubic feet per minute (CFM) are two important ratings to consider when you start looki.
[pdf] 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.
