Manufacturer Specifications
It offers a maximum pressure of 135 pounds per square inch and has the capability to generate 6.5 SCFM at a pressure of 40 pounds per square inch and 5.5 SCFM at a pressure of 90 pounds per square inch.
This vertical compressor is made of solid cast iron and comes with a heavy duty handle to make it more durable as compared to similar compressors.
It comes with a protective belt guard, which channels air towards the pump and helps in its cooling.
It also has a changeable air filter that can be changed when ever required so that only completely clean air is given out at all times.
Warranty
The company promises to either repair or replace the air compressor if found defective in materials used or workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase.
Pros
It comes with a Solberg style intake filter, which works very effectively and efficiently to remove dust and any other unwanted particles from the air thereby providing clean air at all times.
It comes in a modern design, which guarantees a long life of about 5000 hours. This design also makes it about 35% quieter than other similar compressors. Another advantage of this design is that heat is dissipated in a better manner and the result is that it is about 60 degrees cooler as compared to compressors using aluminum pumps with cast iron sleeves. This helps in its proper functioning for prolonged intervals.
Cons
This model does not have an on board storage space and hence various accessories have to be picked up and replaced in the main store from time to time.
