Question:

What does the air compressor governor control?

A When the air compressor pumps air into the air storage tanks.
explanation

The governor controls when the air compressor will pump air into the air storage tanks. When air tank pressure rises to the "cut-out" level (around 125 pounds per-square-inch or "psi"), the governor stops the compressor from pumping air. When the tank pressure falls to the "cut-in" pressure (around 100 psi), the governor allows the compressor to start pumping again.
(According to CDL Handbook)
