Test Equipment & Setup

Parameter Detail
Inflator Unit ETENWOLF S1-1# Portable Tire Inflator
Inflation Object Standard basketball
Pressure Unit PSI (pounds per square inch)
Preset Pressure Range 3 PSI – 9 PSI
Inflation Range per Run Incremental segments from 0 PSI up to maximum 9 PSI
Hold Duration for Stability Check 5 seconds post-stop
Measured Parameters Inflation range (PSI), preset target pressure, stop pressure, 5-second hold pressure, hold-pressure delta, accuracy delta

Test Procedure

  1. Pre-test: Confirm basketball is at or near the lower bound of the target inflation range. Verify inflator unit is S1-1# and pressure display reads correctly.
  2. Set preset pressure: Enter the target stop pressure (PSI) into the inflator before each run.
  3. Inflate: Connect the inflator nozzle to the basketball valve and begin inflation from the recorded starting pressure up to the preset target.
  4. Record stop pressure: Note the actual pressure at which the inflator automatically stops (PSI).
  5. 5-second hold check: Allow 5 seconds after stop, then record the stabilized hold pressure (PSI).
  6. Calculate hold-pressure delta: Subtract stop pressure from 5-second hold pressure to assess short-term pressure retention.
  7. Calculate accuracy delta: Subtract preset target pressure from the 5-second hold pressure to determine final accuracy deviation.
  8. Post-test: Deflate basketball to the next starting pressure as required and repeat for all 10 runs.
  9. Acceptance criteria: Accuracy deviations are recorded for engineering review; results are compared against product specification tolerances.

Test Data & Results

No. Object Inflation Range (PSI) Preset Pressure (PSI) Stop Pressure (PSI) 5-Second Hold Pressure (PSI) Hold-Pressure Delta (PSI) Accuracy Delta (PSI) Remarks
1 Basketball 0–3 3 2.3 2.3 0.0 −0.7
2 Basketball 3–6 6 5.5 5.4 −0.1 −0.6
3 Basketball 6–8 8 7.4 7.3 −0.1 −0.7
4 Basketball 8–9 9 8.9 8.8 −0.1 −0.2
5 Basketball 0–4 4 3.1 3.0 −0.1 −1.0
6 Basketball 4–6 6 5.4 5.3 −0.1 −0.7
7 Basketball 0–5 5 4.0 3.9 −0.1 −1.1
8 Basketball 5–7 7 6.5 6.4 −0.1 −0.6
9 Basketball 7–8 8 7.7 7.6 −0.1 −0.4
10 Basketball 8–9 9 8.9 8.8 −0.1 −0.2

Observations: All 10 runs show the inflator stopping below the preset target, with accuracy deviations ranging from −0.2 PSI (runs 4 and 10, target 9 PSI) to −1.1 PSI (run 7, target 5 PSI). The 5-second hold-pressure delta is consistently −0.1 PSI or 0.0 PSI, indicating stable short-term pressure retention after shutoff. Lower preset targets (3–5 PSI) exhibit larger negative accuracy deviations, suggesting the inflator undershoots more at lower pressures during basketball inflation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pressure accuracy can I expect from the ETENWOLF S1 when inflating a basketball?

In testing with unit S1-1#, the S1 consistently stopped within −0.2 to −1.1 PSI below the preset target across a 0–9 PSI range. The inflator tends to undershoot more at lower target pressures (3–5 PSI), while accuracy improves at higher pressures near 9 PSI.

Does the ETENWOLF S1 hold pressure steadily after it shuts off?

Yes. In all 10 basketball inflation test runs, the pressure 5 seconds after shutoff dropped by no more than 0.1 PSI compared to the stop pressure, indicating stable short-term pressure retention through the valve connection.

What PSI range does the ETENWOLF S1 support for basketball inflation?

The test covers a working range of 0–9 PSI for basketball inflation. The inflator accepts incremental preset targets within this range and automatically stops when the target is reached.

How does the S1-1# unit compare to S1-2# in basketball inflation accuracy?

This report covers unit S1-1# only. Accuracy results for unit S1-2# basketball inflation are documented in the sibling test sheet S1-2#-蓝球, which is linked in the Related Products section below.
