Viair 350C Air Compressor draws a very low current to operate and is hence ideal for mobile pneumatic applications. It has a ¼ inch NPT intake port to fit in a stainless steel leader hose and also has a check valve for protection. It has two models; the P/N 35030, which is silver colored and the P/N 35033, which is chrome colored.

This ability to function in extremes of temperature makes it very popular for domestic as well as commercial applications.
