VIAIR Corporation - 450P-Automatic Compressor (P/N 45043)

I use the Viair 450PA, had it for almost two years. Have used it to air 3,4 &5 trucks back to back. Works great.

ARB twin. 100% duty cycle. Built and tested in Australia.

Several of us on here - including myself - are using them. Mine has been awesome, it has fantastic air flow and has been perfectly reliable.

Your air compressor is equipped with an AUTOMATIC THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTOR.
This feature is designed to protect the air compressor from over-heating and causing permanent
damage to your air compressor. The thermal overload protector will automatically cut off power
to air compressor should internal operating temperature of the air compressor rise above safe
levels during excessive use.

I read the above on the viair instructions. Have any of you had you unit shut off due to approach of thermal overload?

Never in, all the years I have used viair, have they ever shut off from thermal

China havin, import lovin' mo fo here...

Been using the Puma 12v for trips and trail runs, so far to date it's done a great job. I also have used it at a frinds cabin running a nail gun (I'm lazy) and it's been a big hit blowing up air stuff as well. Great price point, and to hook it up all I did was cut off a pair of heavy jumper cables and wired them on.
