Powermate VLP1582619.01 air compressor Parts

For a Powermate air compressor like model VLP1582619, the model number is typically printed or stamped on the unit’s data plate (rating label). Check the tank, frame, or motor/pump area for a metal or heavy-duty sticker label with the model and serial information.

Where to look on the compressor

Most portable air compressors place the data plate in one of these spots:

• On the air tank near the handle, feet, or drain valve
• On the frame or base rail under the tank
• Near the motor housing or pump shroud
• Close to the pressure switch cover (where the power cord enters)
• On the rear side of the unit where it is less likely to get scraped

What the label usually includes

When you find the label, look for these fields (wording varies by brand):

• Model or Model No. (this is what we use to match parts)
• Serial or Serial No.
• Tank size (gallons)
• Max pressure (PSI)
• Electrical rating (volts, amps, Hz)
• Manufacture date or date code

Quick checklist: model number vs. other numbers

Use this table to avoid grabbing the wrong number:

You see this on the label	What it means	Use it to find parts?
Model / Model No.	The compressor’s identity	Yes
Serial / S/N	Unique unit identifier	Sometimes helpful
Motor HP / SPL	Motor rating	No
PSI / Max pressure	Pressure capability	No
Pump or motor number	Component identifier	Not for the main model lookup

Why it matters

We use the exact model number to match the correct Powermate diagrams and replacement parts because similar-looking compressors can use different pressure switches, regulators, check valves, gauges, and pump components.

If the label is missing or unreadable

• Look for a second label on the opposite side of the tank or under the handle
• Clean the area gently; overspray and grime often hide the print
• If only part of the model is readable, match the remaining characters plus the brand and compressor style
• Use our DIY troubleshooting to narrow down what you need to repair: air compressor common questions

For a Powermate air compressor like model VLP1582619, the model number is mainly an ID used to match the correct parts list and diagrams; it is not a universal “code” that reliably tells you voltage, UL status, or temperature ratings across brands.

Where to find the model number on the compressor

Look for a data label on the:

• Air tank (side or rear)
• Motor/pump shroud area
• Frame near the handle or wheels
• Base plate near the feet

Write down every character exactly as shown (letters, numbers, dots, and dashes). For example, VLP1582619 is the model identifier we use to pull the correct Powermate parts breakdown.

How to interpret what the characters usually mean

Model numbers are not standardized, but many air compressor model strings commonly include:

• A series/family prefix (often letters)
• A capacity or performance hint (sometimes tank size, HP, or SCFM, but not guaranteed)
• A revision or variant (suffix like “.01”, “A”, “B”, or a dash code)
• A market/packaging variant (kit vs. bare unit)

Quick guide: what to record (and why)

What you see on the label	Example	Why it matters
Model number	VLP1582619	Matches the correct diagrams and parts list
Revision/suffix	.01 / -A	Prevents ordering the wrong version of a part
Serial number	(varies)	Helps identify production run differences
Electrical rating	120V / 15A	Confirms power requirements for troubleshooting

Why it matters

A single missing character can point to a different pump, pressure switch, regulator, or gauge setup. Using the exact model and suffix keeps repairs accurate and avoids repeat failures.

If you are troubleshooting (common next step)

If the question came up because the unit is acting up, use a symptom-based path to narrow the cause:

• Won’t start: air compressor won't start
• Won’t build pressure: air compressor won't build tank pressure
• Leaks air: air compressor air leaks

Yes, a 20-gallon air compressor is big enough for many common air tools when you use them intermittently. With a Powermate air compressor like model VLP1582619, the real limiter is the tool’s CFM requirement at 90 PSI, not the tank size alone.

What a 20-gallon compressor handles well

A 20-gallon tank typically works best for short bursts of air and recovery time between cycles.

• Brad/finish nailers and staplers
• Tire inflation and blow guns
• Small impact wrenches (used in bursts)
• Light-duty ratchets
• Occasional framing nailer use

When 20 gallons feels too small

If the tool needs steady airflow, the compressor will run frequently and pressure can drop while you work.

• DA sanders and other continuous sanders
• HVLP or conventional paint spraying (especially larger tips)
• Die grinders used continuously
• Media blasting

Quick sizing rule: match CFM first, then tank

Use this as a practical way to decide if your setup will keep up.

Tool type	Typical air demand pattern	What to look for on the tool label
Nailers/inflation	Short bursts	Lower CFM is usually fine
Impacts/ratchets	Bursts with pauses	CFM at 90 PSI should be close to compressor output
Sanders/sprayers	Continuous	Compressor CFM at 90 PSI must exceed tool CFM

Why it matters

If the compressor cannot supply enough CFM at the pressure your tool needs, you will see pressure sag, slower tool performance, longer recovery times, and more heat and wear from frequent cycling.

Best next step

Compare your tool’s required SCFM at 90 PSI to your compressor’s SCFM at 90 PSI rating. If you are troubleshooting weak tool performance or pressure drop, use our air compressor won't build tank pressure guide to pinpoint common causes.

Powermate air compressors (including model VLP1582619) are made by MAT Industries, LLC, a company within MAT Holdings, Inc. They design and manufacture compressors sold under the Powermate brand, along with several other compressor brand lines.

What this means for parts and repairs

Even though the brand on the tank says Powermate, the manufacturing organization behind many Powermate compressors is MAT Industries. When you’re troubleshooting or sourcing replacement components, focus on your exact model number (VLP1582619) and the specific part description.

Common compressor components you may need to identify by model include:

• Pressure switch
• Check valve
• Regulator
• Safety valve
• Tank pressure gauge
• Pump/motor assembly

Quick brand and manufacturer snapshot

Why it matters

Knowing who makes the compressor helps you interpret part labeling and repair guidance, but the model number is what keeps you from ordering the wrong pressure switch, gauge, or valve style for your specific Powermate unit.
