Monday, February 8th, 2010JeepSWAG recently picked up the Viair product line. Great prices are only the start. We are in process of testing different compressors from the Viair line. So far the 400H and 400C are looking really good. The Viair line marks the beginning of a top notch high performance JK onboard air solution. In the works are an engine compartment compressor, manifold and 2 gallon air tank kit.
Some testing details:
We tested a couple of compressors. Our goal was to try to overheat the 400H and get some times on tire fills. We aired down 8 tires to 7 PSI, then aired them up to 35 PSI. The compressor ran for 50 minutes with one short change over break with no problems.
We have also come up with a way that (we think) allows for faster fills with any compressor. I’m not going into any details, but here are some times for different fills.
Four 37″X13.5″ tires
5 PSI to 35 PSI;
450H = 34 minutes
400H = 21 minutes
10 PSI to 27 PSI (SDMF’s trail and road pressures)
400H = 16 minutes.
The 450 series is a 100% duty cycle at 100 PSI compressor. The 400 is 33%. We don’t often pump at 100 PSI, so my though was that the 400 might work for us. Sure enough it worked great. It has a 2.54 CFM output compared to 1.66 CFM of the 450. The 400 draws 30 amps and the 450 draws 22. So the 400 is much faster. I’m going to do some more testing and see if I can get the 400 to overheat.
The 400H and 450H are the same as the 400C and 450C respectively, with the H model including an integrated power switch.
Less money, better performance.
