Most product pages never say how much. Quincy publishes the figure for this machine - oil blow-by held to less than 5 PPM - and that is the honest reason to shortlist the 4153DS12HCA46 ahead of a cheaper 15 HP unit. It decides whether the air arriving at a spray gun, a plasma table or a blast cabinet is clean enough to use, or whether your downstream filtration has to do all of the work and get changed twice as often.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAround that sits a cast iron four-cylinder two-stage pump that Quincy rates for more than 50,000 hours of service, a Baldor industrial-duty motor wired for 460 Volt 3-phase supply, and a 120 gallon horizontal ASME tank. Delivered air is 51 CFM at 175 PSI, and it leaves through a 1 inch ball valve.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe oil carry-over figure, and why it is worth arguing about\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBlow-by is the small amount of lubricating oil that slips past the rings and leaves the pump with the compressed air. It causes trouble in three predictable places. It contaminates paint work, where it appears as fisheyes that nobody can polish out afterwards. It loads up coalescing and desiccant elements, so your filter spend climbs quietly year after year. And it pools in the low points of a shop pipework run until it eventually reaches a tool all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA figure below 5 PPM does not make this an oil-free compressor, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. It means the pump keeps carry-over low enough that a normal filtration train finishes the job rather than fighting the machine for its whole life. If your process genuinely requires oil-free air - breathing air, food contact, some medical and laboratory work - this is not the machine, and no amount of filtration turns an oil-lubricated reciprocating compressor into one. Tell us what the air is for and we will say so plainly.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe outlet is sized for the output\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA 1 inch ball valve at the tank sounds like trivia until you try to push 51 CFM through a narrower fitting and a length of thin hose. Restriction at the tank shows up as pressure drop at the tool, and it is the most common reason a correctly specified compressor feels undersized a week after installation. Size the header pipe to match the outlet rather than to match whatever was already hanging on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe same reasoning applies to the receiver. A 120 gallon tank does not create air, but it absorbs demand spikes, so the pump runs in longer and cooler cycles instead of short hot ones. Long cool cycles are the duty that actually gets a pump toward the service life its maker quotes; short hot ones are how compressors die early.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWill it fit, and what your electrician needs\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis is a horizontal machine: about 78 inches long, 28 inches wide and 55 inches tall, weighing 995 lbs. Horizontal is the layout to pick when ceiling height is your constraint - under a mezzanine, in a bay with a roller-door track overhead, or tucked along a wall. The trade is floor area, and it is a genuine trade: a vertical tank of the same capacity hands most of that footprint back and asks for the height instead.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSet it on level, solid concrete with clear space on every side for cooling airflow and for service access to the belt guard, the sight glass and the drain. Measuring the pad, the clearances and the route in through your door is the customer responsibility, and it is far better done with a tape measure before the order than on a kerb with a driver waiting.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eElectrically it needs 460 Volt 3-phase service. The industrial-duty magnetic starter is wired and mounted at the factory, so your installation is a supply run rather than a control panel build. Quincy does not publish a breaker size for this unit and neither will we - the specification says to consult a certified electrician, because conductor sizing depends on the length of your run and on local code. Get that answered before the machine is on a truck.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e4153DS12HCA46\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMotor\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e15 HP, 460 Volt, 3-phase, Baldor industrial duty\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDelivered air\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e51 CFM at 175 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaximum pressure\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e175 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePump\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eTwo-stage, four-cylinder, cast iron with aluminum head, belt drive, splash lubricated\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOil carry-over\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eLess than 5 PPM\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTank\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e120 gallon, horizontal, ASME\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTank outlet\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e1 inch ball valve\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e78 inches long, 28 inches wide, 55 inches tall\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e995 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eStarter\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eIndustrial-duty magnetic starter, factory wired and mounted\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAftercooler and air dryer\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003eNot fitted\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e \u003ctd\u003e1-year factory, extending to the 3-year No Bull terms\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e  \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBody and paint shops.\u003c\/strong\u003e The published carry-over figure and 175 PSI at the tank are what a booth and a set of guns actually need.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFabrication and plasma cutting.\u003c\/strong\u003e Continuous 51 CFM supports a torch and a grinder at the same time without the pressure sagging.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMulti-bay service shops.\u003c\/strong\u003e Enough air for several technicians on impact tools, with the 120 gallon receiver soaking up the spikes.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eLight manufacturing.\u003c\/strong\u003e Where the building already has 460 Volt 3-phase and the demand is steady rather than occasional.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIt is the wrong machine for a home garage: no house has a 3-phase service, and a smaller single-phase unit costs far less to install.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhat Is In The Box\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe compressor arrives as a factory-assembled unit: pump, motor, belt drive and guard on the 120 gallon tank, with the industrial-duty magnetic starter already wired and mounted. Quincy warranty documentation is supplied with the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNot included, and worth planning for: the electrical supply run and disconnect, shop pipework and fittings beyond the 1 inch tank outlet, any filtration or drying you need downstream, isolation pads, and initial oil if your installer prefers a specific grade. This unit is not fitted with an aftercooler or an air dryer - if you need dry air, that is a separate purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eCertification, stated honestly\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer certification line for this model lists an ASME tank together with UL and CSA marks. Those are certifications of the equipment as it was built, and they are worth having. They are not the same thing as approval of your installation.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNo mark on the machine says your feeder, your disconnect, your overcurrent protection or your ventilation meet code in your jurisdiction - that is decided by your electrician and your local inspector, on your site. If an insurer, a landlord or an authority having jurisdiction needs the compliance paperwork, ask us for the manufacturer documentation before you order rather than after the machine is bolted down. We would rather send you the file than have you discover a gap at inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eShipping and delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis compressor ships by freight to the lower 48 states. This item ships free, so there is nothing to add at checkout. Residential delivery carries a residential fee. A commercial address with a dock or a forklift is cheaper, and terminal pickup is cheaper again if you can collect it yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eYou must be able to unload. The driver brings it to the kerb and no further. Have a forklift, a dock, or arrangements to move 995 lbs safely off a trailer - or choose terminal pickup and bring your own equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eInspect before you sign. Walk the crate, check the tank shell, the pump, the motor and the belt guard, and write any damage on the bill of lading while the driver is still there. A signed clean receipt makes a freight claim very hard to win.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eQuincy covers this unit with a 1-year factory warranty, and it is eligible for the extended 3-year No Bull terms when the registration and maintenance conditions are satisfied. Those conditions are set by the manufacturer and change from time to time, so confirm the current requirements with us in writing before you rely on them.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOne warning that applies to any compressor, whoever made it: do not strip the pump, the motor or the starter before a claim is raised. A unit that has already been opened is very difficult to warrant, however obvious the fault looked at the time. Call us first, keep every part, and photograph what you found.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quincy Compressor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49287158399130,"sku":"2020040888","price":5806.5,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/quincy-4153ds12hca46-air-compressor","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
