I researched this before; CFM is as important as PSI. Here from a search:

"For winterizing a sprinkler system, a minimum of 20 CFM at 50 PSI is generally recommended"

This model seems to have only 1CFM at 90PSI

The volume required for that is more than a pancake compressor could supply. You're going to need a very large compressor.

I used a 2 gallon air compressor to do this for a while. The pump will never keep up, to that's irrelevant. I would open the valve, and empty the air tank into the sprinker, then close it. I would then change the active sprinkler zone while the compressor was filling back up. I ended up doing each zone about 2 times to really clear them out, and a third time to make sure it's really empty.
I'm currently using a 5 or 6 gallon air compressor. It can usually do each zone in one shot, but I go through a second round with each zone just to make sure.
