Industrial Air IV5248069 80-Gallon Two Stage Cast Iron Two Cylinder Air Compressor

Industrial Air IV5248069 80-Gallon Two Stage Cast Iron Two Cylinder Air Compressor
  • 5.2 horsepower, cast iron, twin cyclinder, oil lubricated pump engine
  • one-piece cast iron crankcase and 12 inch caast iron crankcase
  • 240 volt heavy duty induction motor
  • splash type lubrication
  • equipped with pressure gauge and on/off switch

I have puchased this commercial grade Air compressor for a 4 bay automotive repair shop. We have tested it in the shop and it is quite with out any vibrations running with 5.2 hp motor, 2-stage, Cast Iron tank, single phase 230v. Now we have installed it outside the shop and we can barely here it. I do like the output control knobs on the compressor, where we have turned it down to 150 psi (it can go up to 175 psi)and we have not yet seen a need to increase the output psi.

The dual output also helps, where we can run a quick connect for some out side the bay work. With couple of air tools running, the compressor hardly kicks in for just couple of minutes I guess the 80 Gallon tank is helping too.

We had some tough bolts on a honda and infinity and ball joints and had to run 3/4 inch tools for a while and the compressor kicked in only for a couple minutes couple of times.

I like the output psi adjustment knob, large Dials neatly in their place. I have only used it for a month now and works like a charm. Amazon had the best price, including free delivery, however did not have a lot of details. has a lot of details and it is one of their best selling compressors.
