{"product_id":"quincy-2153ds12hca20-air-compressor","title":"Quincy Air Compressor 4153DS12HCA20 QT Pro 15 HP 120 Gallon Two Stage 208V 3 Phase","description":"\u003ch2\u003eQuincy 4153DS12HCA20 QT Pro 15 HP Two-Stage Air Compressor, 208V\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe number to read on this listing is 923 RPM. That is how fast the pump turns, and it is remarkably slow for a machine producing 51 CFM at 175 PSI. Shaft speed is the quiet variable behind almost everything that determines how long a reciprocating compressor lasts, and a pump that makes this much air while turning this slowly is doing it with displacement rather than with revolutions. Quincy rates the splash-lubricated cast-iron pump at more than 50,000 hours, and drives it with an industrial Baldor motor on 208V 3-phase power at a 100% duty rating.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat slow actually buys\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePiston speed is the root of piston wear. Every stroke drags rings along a bore under load, and the faster that happens the hotter the ring, the thinner the oil film and the quicker the bore polishes. Halve the shaft speed and you roughly halve the number of those events per hour of running, and you drop the temperature at which each one takes place. That is why two compressors with the same capacity on the sticker can have wildly different service lives, and why a slow four-cylinder pump costs more than a fast two-cylinder one to make the same air.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThere is a second benefit that shows up on the shop floor rather than in the specification: noise. A slow pump produces a lower-frequency, less penetrating sound than a high-speed unit, and it transmits less vibration into whatever it is bolted to. On a machine expected to run continuously in a working bay, that is not a luxury.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eAir clean enough to use\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe QT Pro pump is specified to hold oil carry-over below 5 PPM. That figure deserves attention because oil in the air line is not merely untidy — it contaminates paint work, degrades the seals in downstream tools and pneumatic valves, and coats the inside of the pipework so that even an upgrade further down the line inherits the problem. Getting the carry-over low at the pump is a great deal cheaper than filtering it out afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAround that sit the parts you would expect on an industrial machine: cast-iron cylinders with an aluminum head, stainless steel reed valves, and a fin and tube intercooler between the stages that holds the interstage temperature down. A factory-fitted magnetic starter provides motor thermal overload protection, and a low oil shut-off and oil sight glass make the daily checks quick enough that they actually get done.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe unit is built on a horizontal 120-gallon receiver, 78 inches long, 28 inches wide and 55 inches high, weighing 995 lbs. Plan the placement for service access as well as footprint — you want the belt guard, sight glass and drain reachable without moving anything, and you want the fan drawing room air. Air leaves through a 1-inch outlet, which is a large port sized for hard pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePower is 208V 3-phase. Confirm that at your panel rather than assuming from other equipment on site, because shop three-phase comes at more than one voltage and the wrong choice shows up as poor starting and a motor running hotter than it should. The magnetic starter is included. Breaker and conductor sizing is a certified electrician job against your actual service and run length, which is what the manufacturer documentation instructs rather than printing a number. Verifying supply, doorway width, access route and floor capability before you order is the buyer responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAutomotive service shops and fabrication bays\u003c\/strong\u003e running several stations off one receiver all day.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTire and truck work\u003c\/strong\u003e, where impact tools take big intermittent bites out of stored air.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRefinishing and body shops\u003c\/strong\u003e that need low oil carry-over at the source rather than at the filter.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAny shop on its second compressor\u003c\/strong\u003e that wants the next one to outlast the finance term.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat Arrives\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe machine is delivered assembled: the four-cylinder cast-iron two-stage pump and the Baldor motor mounted on the horizontal receiver, with the industrial-duty magnetic starter, oil sight glass, low oil shut-off and intercooler fitted. Compressor oil, hose, filtration, dryers, regulators and isolation valves are not listed as included in the documentation we hold. Note in particular that the Quincy EWK-5 maintenance kit referred to in the warranty terms below is a separate purchase, and it is worth ordering at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eMotor\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e15 HP industrial-duty Baldor, 208V, 3-phase, magnetic starter fitted\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003ePump speed\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e923 RPM\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eDelivery\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e51 CFM at 175 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eDuty\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e100% continuous\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003ePump\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eTwo-stage, four-cylinder cast iron with aluminum head, splash lubricated\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eAir quality\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eOil carry-over below 5 PPM\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eReceiver\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e120 gallons, horizontal, 1-inch outlet\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e78 inches long, 28 inches wide, 55 inches high\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e995 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eA note on the model number\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis listing carries two model numbers. The page heading and the manufacturer specification both give the compressor as 4153DS12HCA20, while one line of the existing copy and the web address for this page use a different prefix on the same code. We believe the heading and the specification are right, because they agree with each other and with the way the rest of this Quincy range is numbered — but if you are matching a part number for a replacement or for a fleet standard, confirm it with us in writing first rather than relying on the web address.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eCertification, Stated Plainly\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eASME, UL and CSA marks are recorded for this compressor, and the ASME mark is the one that carries weight on a machine like this. It is a pressure vessel certification: it covers the receiver, its design, its material and how it was built, and it is what an inspector or an insurer will want to see on a tank of this capacity. The electrical marks apply to the motor and controls. None of the three certifies the air the compressor produces, none of them satisfies a permitting requirement, and none of them replaces a periodic pressure vessel inspection where your jurisdiction requires one. Establish what is expected locally before the machine is installed.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and Delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis compressor moves by freight to the lower 48 states; it is far past what any parcel carrier will handle. This item ships free, so there is nothing to add at checkout. Two practical points follow from that. You must be able to get the machine off the truck at the delivery end — a forklift, a dock or a telehandler — or you can arrange to collect it from the carrier terminal instead. And delivery to a residential address is handled differently by carriers and carries a residential fee, so pick the option that matches the real destination when you order.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInspect the pallet before you sign for it. Walk around it looking for a bent guard, a cracked gauge, oil on the wrapping or a receiver that has taken a knock on one corner, and write whatever you find on the bill of lading while the driver is still there. A clean signature makes a freight damage claim very hard to win. A noted one makes it routine.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe compressor is covered by a 1-year factory warranty on parts and labour. That cover extends when the unit is registered promptly with Quincy and the EWK-5 maintenance kit is purchased with it — the extension runs longer on the pump than on the rest of the package, and reaches the 3-year No Bull cover with on-site service. Because the extension depends on registering at the time of purchase, it is not something you can arrange later when a fault appears. If one does appear, call us before the pump or the starter is opened. A machine that has already been apart is the single most common reason a manufacturer refuses to pay a claim.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quincy Compressor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49287156203674,"sku":"2020040886","price":5806.5,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/quincy-2153ds12hca20-air-compressor","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
