A vane airend has very few moving parts and it turns slowly — 1,760 RPM, direct driven, no belts to tension and no reciprocating mass hammering itself apart. That is why the LV and LVR series is rated for 100% duty cycle applications and why the manufacturer talks about 100,000+ operating hours without an expensive airend change or refurbishment. A piston compressor asked to run continuously is a piston compressor being worn out; this one is doing what it was designed for.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe LVR07PDRHS-12 is the duplex configuration: two compressor and motor assemblies on one 120 gallon horizontal tank, with a lead and lag system that shares the running between them. It arrives with a starter included.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat lead and lag actually buys you\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA duplex package is not simply a bigger compressor. The lead and lag control alternates which machine starts first, so the two units accumulate hours evenly instead of one doing all the work and aging twice as fast as its twin. That evens out service intervals and means both airends reach the end of their life at roughly the same time rather than staggered by years.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt also changes behaviour at part load: when demand is light one compressor covers it and the other stays idle, and when demand climbs the second joins in. And when one machine is down for service, the shop still has air. For anyone whose work stops when the air stops, that redundancy is usually the reason a duplex gets specified at all.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSlow speed is the reliability story\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eCompressor life is largely a function of how fast things move and how hot they get. Running direct drive at 1,760 RPM means no belt to slip, glaze or need re-tensioning, and it means the airend is turning at a speed where oil films behave and heat is manageable. Fewer moving parts is the mechanism by which a machine reaches those operating-hour figures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe controls match the philosophy. Start and stop is simple, with an hour meter and a test-off-auto switch, and there is deliberately no microprocessor. That will read as a limitation to some buyers and as the entire point to others: no controller to fail, no firmware, no screen to go blank on a Sunday, and a machine any competent electrician can work on.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eAir quality and servicing\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eOil carryover is quoted at less than 3 ppm, which matters if the air feeds spray equipment, pneumatic controls or anything downstream that objects to oil mist. The oil capacity is large and the filtration is generously sized, and both of those exist to lengthen service intervals rather than to look impressive on a datasheet — a machine that needs attention less often is a machine that actually gets its attention.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eServicing is deliberately ordinary: spin-on and spin-off oil filter and separator, an easy-access air filter, and a minimised list of consumable parts. On a duplex you buy two of every service item, so a short consumables list is worth twice as much here.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWill it fit your shop?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePlan the floor space first. The package is 76.1 in. long and 49.8 in. high, on a horizontal tank, and it weighs 1,210 lbs — so it needs a flat, solid floor and a route into the building that can take a pallet of that mass. It is a tank-mounted unit, not a floor-mounted airend, so it lands as one assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eElectrically it is a three-phase machine, offered across the 208-230\/460\/573 range at 60 Hz. Do not size the supply from this page: have a certified electrician specify the circuit and the protection for the voltage you actually have, because a duplex draws its starting current twice and the answer is not simply double a simplex figure.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorking pressure runs from 100 to 150 psig and the air outlet is 3\/4 in. NPT. Confirming power, floor, clearance for service access and the delivery route is the customer's responsibility, and we would much rather work through it with you before the order than after the truck arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTwo figures to confirm before you order\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished figures for this machine's air delivery differ. The product description states up to 72.8 cfm, which is the figure at 100 psig. A separate specification field records 73 CFM — almost certainly the same measurement rounded, but not the same number. At 150 psig the specification list gives a lower delivery figure again, which is normal for any compressor; it is not printed here because it is not attributed as clearly as the other two.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNoise figures differ in the same way. The series is described as being as low as 65 dBA, while the specification entry for this particular duplex build records a higher noise level than that — which stands to reason, since a duplex has two machines in it. \u003cstrong\u003eIf either the delivery figure at your working pressure or the noise level in your building is going to decide the purchase, ask us and we will get the numbers confirmed for this exact configuration before you commit.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAutomotive and body shops\u003c\/strong\u003e, where air demand is continuous through the day and spray work makes low oil carryover a requirement rather than a preference.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProduction and packaging lines\u003c\/strong\u003e, where the redundancy of a duplex is what keeps a stoppage from becoming a shift lost.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWoodworking shops and machine tool rooms\u003c\/strong\u003e, both named by the manufacturer as target applications for the series.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAny operation currently replacing piston pumps too often.\u003c\/strong\u003e If a compressor is being rebuilt on a schedule, it is being asked to run at a duty cycle it was never rated for.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eLVR07PDRHS-12\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eDuplex, tank mounted, horizontal\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMotor\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e10 HP\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTank\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e120 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDrive\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eDirect drive at 1,760 RPM, 60 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDelivery\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eUp to 72.8 cfm at 100 psig\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWorking pressure\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e100 to 150 psig\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVoltage and phase\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e208-230\/460\/573, three-phase\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAir outlet\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e3\/4 in.

Airend only; compressor plus a TEFC motor; tank mounted as a simplex or, as here, a duplex; or a Hypac total system with the airend, motor, tank and dryer together. Across the series the range is 5-15 HP, with the duplex configurations in the 5-10 hp band. Unsure whether you need the dryer?

That is not the same as saying none exists — documentation for equipment this size often lives with the manufacturer rather than in a catalogue. If an insurer, a local authority or an in-house standard requires specific paperwork before installation, ask us before ordering and we will request it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eShips freight to the lower 48 states. At 1,210 lbs it is not a two-person lift: you need a forklift, a dock, or a plan — or elect to collect from the carrier's terminal instead. Residential delivery carries a fee. Freight is quoted live at checkout against your address rather than printed here, because carrier pricing changes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInspect the shipment before you sign. Check the tank, the control panel and the cooler for handling damage and write anything you find on the bill of lading at the point of delivery — after a clean signature a freight claim is very hard to win.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eCovered by the manufacturer's warranty. No term length is printed here because the product data we hold does not state one for this model — ask us and we will confirm the current terms in writing before you order. Keep the commissioning and service records, because oil and filter history is the first thing any compressor claim asks for. And if a fault develops, raise it before anyone opens the airend: a unit that has been dismantled cannot be assessed, and that is the most common reason a valid claim is refused.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eQuestions on sizing, voltage or delivery?
