Ultra Quiet Operation
The powerful 1.0 HP motor operates at only 1400 RPM, resulting in reduced noise, vibration, and wear. This makes the compressor ideal for use in noise-sensitive environments such as offices, shops, stores, warehouses, or homes.
A noise comparison chart illustrates that this compressor operates at 40 dB, comparable to a whisper, significantly quieter than common air compressors (90-110 dB), city traffic (85 dB), or gunshots (120 dB).
80% Air Dryer System
The 80% Air Dryer is specifically designed to remove water vapor from the compressed air, protecting sensitive tools and machinery. The system utilizes an Aftercooler and the Air Dryer. The aftercooler acts as a heat exchanger to cool the discharged air from the compressor, condensing water vapor into liquid form, which is then pushed into the Air Dryer tower. The Air Dryer tower contains Activated Alumina desiccant, rated for a 4000-hour life, which is used for air prepurification by adsorbing water, carbon dioxide, and sulfur compounds.
(Description of Air Dryer System components: The system includes a tower containing desiccant within a mesh bag.)
Automatic Drain Valve
The California Air Tools EZ-1 Automatic Drain Valve is factory installed to eliminate the need for manual draining of the air compressor tank. Its manually set timer allows users to configure both the frequency and duration of the draining process.
(Description of Automatic Drain Valve: The valve is connected to the air tank for automated draining.)
