The air compressor pump is connected to which component?

The air compressor pump is connected to the air tanks because it is responsible for generating and supplying compressed air that is stored in these tanks. This stored air is crucial for various systems in vehicles, especially those equipped with air brakes. The air compressor pumps air into the tanks to ensure there is a constant supply for braking and other air-operated functions.

The connection to air tanks is essential because these reservoirs store the compressed air until it is needed, allowing the brakes to operate efficiently. When the brakes are applied, the compressed air is released from the tanks to activate the braking system. This mechanism plays a vital role in the overall safety and functionality of vehicles utilizing air brakes.
