Description
These air compressors are designed to provide high air delivery where electricity is
not available. The pump supplied with this unit has oil lubricated bearings which
causes a small amount of oil carryover to be present in the compressed air steam.
Applications requiring air free of oil and water condensation should have the appro-
priate filters installed. Speedaire stationary gasoline engine driven air compressors
are mounted on 30 gallon ASME code horizontal tanks. All units are equipped with
a belt guard and an idle down control to minimize fuel consumption. Applications
include tire changers, inflation devices, pneumatic tools and controls, nailers and
spraying equipment.
