Full details
The Pollor PLC100BLU 100L Oil-Free Air Compressor is designed for home hobbyists, DIY enthusiasts, and small workshop owners who require a reliable air supply for tasks like tire inflation, spray painting, and operating pneumatic tools.

FAQs
Do I need to add oil to this compressor?
No, this is an oil-free compressor, meaning it requires no oil for lubrication or maintenance.
Can I use this for spray painting?

What is the maximum pressure of this unit?
The maximum working pressure is 115 PSI (8 Bar).
How often should I drain the tank?
You should drain the tank after every use to prevent internal rust and moisture buildup.
Is this unit loud?
It operates at 80 dB, which is quieter than many standard compressors, but hearing protection is still recommended for long periods of use.
Can I run two tools at once?
Yes, the unit features twin 1/4 inch BSP quick-release outlets for dual-tool operation.
Troubleshooting
Compressor fails to start
Check that the power plug is securely connected and that the thermal overload switch has not tripped.
Air leaking from the tank drain valve
Ensure the drain valve is screwed in tightly and clear any debris that might prevent the seal from closing properly.
Motor runs but tank does not build pressure
Check all hose connections for leaks and ensure the outlet valves are properly seated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Pollor compressor, place it on a level, dry surface to prevent excessive vibration. Before first use, inspect all fittings to ensure they are tight. The unit features standard 1/4 inch BSP quick-release outlets, ensuring compatibility with most common pneumatic accessories and hoses on the market. For maintenance, ensure the moisture trap is drained regularly—ideally at the end of every work session—by opening the drain valve at the bottom of the tank to release trapped water. Check the air filter periodically for dust buildup and replace it if airflow becomes restricted.
