Comments:

This Century Electric Company motor is on a 30-gallon compressor assembled and sold by Johnson Service Company of Milwaukee, WI. The tank was made by Kargard Industries of Marinette, WI in 1963. I acquired the compressor for $10 at an estate sale in July 2012. The motor runs and the compressor builds and holds pressure, but the previous owner bypassed the non-operative (original) pressure regulator switch. The pressure regulator switch was made by Johnson Service Co. and is a Type G-112 SER. BB63 SPEC. 49-13991.
