Product Summary

The NorthStar Air Compressor with Quiet Armor offers 10 HP, an 80-gallon capacity and 38 CFM @ 90 PSI with 175 PSI max. This 2-stage, 1-phase vertical air compressor is designed for up to 50,000 hours of use with proper maintenance. It features patented Quiet Armor with 5-stage air intake noise reduction technology that produces LESS NOISE than leading commercial-grade compressors. (Compressor noise levels measured outdoors from 20ft. away. This reduces impact that building type, compressor placement or surroundings have on noise level and allows compressors to be more equally compared. Installed results may vary.) This unit also features a solid cast iron 2-stage, low 600 RPM, 4-cylinder splash lube pump with removable disc valves and solid steel rods for maximum performance and durability. The 80-gallon ASME tank is powder coated. Other features include a 115V electronic timed auto tank drain and an industrial 1,740 RPM 4-pole electric motor with a 1.1 service factor. This compressor does not include a cord; it needs to be hardwired by a certified electrician.
