What pressure will cause the air compressor to turn off?

The air compressor in a traction system typically has a specific cut-off pressure at which it will automatically turn off to prevent over-pressurization and ensure efficient operation. In this context, the correct cut-off pressure for the air compressor is 1000 kPa.

When the system reaches this pressure, the compressor's control mechanism kicks in to stop the compression process. This pressure is optimal as it balances the need for sufficient air pressure to operate braking systems and other pneumatic components while protecting them from excessive pressure that could lead to component failures or inefficiencies.

Understanding this cutoff pressure is crucial because it plays a significant role in the overall safety and functionality of the traction system. Achieving and maintaining the appropriate pressure levels ensures that all associated systems operate effectively, contributing to the safe and reliable performance of the traction equipment.
