{"product_id":"quincy-353d80vca20m-air-compressor","title":"Quincy Air Compressor 5 HP 80 Gallon Two Stage 208V 3 Phase","description":"\u003ch2\u003eQuincy 553D80VCA20M 5 HP 80-Gallon Two-Stage Air Compressor, 208V 3-Phase\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe number to look at on this compressor is 942 RPM. The larger machines elsewhere in this catalogue turn their pumps at close to twice that speed; this one is built to work slowly through the same day. That is a design decision with consequences you will actually notice, and it is the reason Quincy is willing to rate this pump for more than 60,000 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe rest is a two-stage cast-iron pump with aluminium heads, belt driven, on a vertical 80-gallon receiver, with stainless steel reed valves, a fin-and-tube intercooler, a mounted air-cooled aftercooler and a magnetic starter. This part number is wound for 208V, 3-phase supply.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhy pump speed is the specification that ages a compressor\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWear in a reciprocating compressor is a function of how far the rings and the piston skirts travel against the bore, and that is set by speed far more than by horsepower. Halve the shaft speed and you roughly halve the distance travelled per hour of running, along with the number of valve openings, the number of bearing load reversals and the number of thermal cycles the head sees.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe second effect is noise, and it is the one people underestimate until the machine is installed. A slow-turning industrial pump on a belt drive is a fundamentally quieter object than a fast one, which matters if the compressor shares a building with a waiting room, an office, or anybody who has to talk on a telephone.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe third is heat. Fewer compression events per minute means less heat generated per minute, and less heat is what lets the oil and the valves reach the service life the manufacturer quotes. None of this makes a slow pump better at everything — it will not out-deliver a bigger, faster machine — but for a shop that runs its compressor every day for a decade, shaft speed is the specification that decides how that decade goes.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe valve deck and the cooling\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eStainless steel reed valves with valve bumpers do the breathing. Reed valves are the highest-cycle components in the machine, and the bumpers are there to stop the reed over-travelling and fatiguing at the root, which is how reed valves normally fail. Graphite cylinder and head gaskets hold the joint at the pressures and temperatures that two-stage compression produces.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eCooling happens twice. The high-efficiency fin-and-tube intercooler pulls the heat of the first compression out before the second cylinder gets the air, so the second stage is working on a cooler, denser charge. Then the mounted air-cooled aftercooler drops the discharge temperature again before the air reaches the receiver, which is what makes the moisture condense in the tank rather than in your pipework. Rated maximum pressure is 175 PSI.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePlan area:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37\" by 24\", plus room to reach the belt guard and the oil fill.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 74\".

On \u003cstrong\u003elubrication\u003c\/strong\u003e, the manufacturer’s feature list describes a fully pressure-lubricated package driven by a gerotor positive-displacement oil pump, while the structured specification field on this page records a splash oil system — two different architectures. On the \u003cstrong\u003etank drain\u003c\/strong\u003e, the feature list and the detailed specification block both record an electronic automatic drain, and a summary field records none. If either point is load-bearing for your purchase, \u003cstrong\u003eask us to verify it against the as-shipped configuration before you order\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis ships by freight within the lower 48 states, crated on a skid.
