The part that decides whether a three-phase machine survives its first year in a working shop is usually electrical, and it is where this unit is better specified than the summary suggests: a TEFC, IP55-rated motor, a magnetic starter fitted from the factory, and automatic starters that detect phase and sequence failure before the machine turns.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBehind that protection is an oil-injected rotary air end delivering 74 CFM at 125 PSI on a 100% duty cycle, mounted on a 120-gallon horizontal ASME receiver, and running from a 208-230V three-phase supply. A 12-month warranty is stated.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhy the motor enclosure rating matters in a shop\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eTEFC means totally enclosed, fan cooled: the motor windings are sealed away from the air around them and cooled by a fan blowing over the outside of the frame rather than through the windings. IP55 describes what that enclosure keeps out — dust in quantity, and water arriving as jets rather than as a mist.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThose are not abstractions in this environment. A compressor lives in the dirtiest air in the building, near grinding, sanding and blasting work, and it is usually the machine nearest the pressure washer. An open motor drawing shop air through its windings collects everything that air is carrying, and it fails from contamination long before it fails from work. A sealed motor is one of the least glamorous and most decisive specifications on a machine like this.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePhase and sequence protection, and what it prevents\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eTwo supply faults are genuinely destructive to a three-phase compressor, and neither announces itself.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe first is a lost phase. A motor running on two of its three phases draws heavily on those that remain and overheats, while sounding more or less normal to anyone walking past. It can destroy a motor in a single shift.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe second is reversed rotation. A screw air end turned backwards is not doing a lesser version of its job — it is being damaged, and quickly. On a machine wired in a hurry, or reconnected after a panel change, rotation is exactly what gets assumed rather than checked.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe starters here detect both conditions and refuse to run. That is protection with a clear price attached: it is cheaper than one air end.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat continuous duty means for the air you get\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eRated at a 100% duty cycle, this machine is designed to run continuously rather than to run and cool. Screw compression is inherently continuous — air is trapped and squeezed between two meshing rotors along their length, with no reciprocating mass and no thermal stop-start cycle to respect.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe output difference you notice day to day is steadiness. Air arrives at a consistent pressure instead of in pulses, which every regulator, every spray gun and every air-driven tool downstream prefers. The air end is belt driven with a solid cast iron pump, and an oil sight glass is fitted so the most consequential maintenance check on the machine takes a moment rather than a shutdown.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe unit measures 58.5 in long by 30.3 in wide by 39.8 in high and weighs 1146 lbs, delivered as one 2-In-1 skid with air end, motor and receiver already assembled — nothing to plumb together on site. Set it on sound, level concrete, leave room around the cabinet for cooling airflow and service access, and match your shop main to the 1-inch tank outlet rather than restricting the machine at its own connection. Stated ambient operating limit is 113 °F, which is a design ceiling for your ventilation rather than a normal running condition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eElectrically, this is the 208-230V three-phase build. Our record deliberately gives amp draw and recommended breaker as figures to confirm with a certified electrician instead of printing them, because they depend on your run length and on local code. \u003cstrong\u003eThe supply, disconnect, overcurrent protection and conductors are the customer's responsibility and need a licensed electrician.\u003c\/strong\u003e Check what your panel is actually fed at before ordering — the motor is wound for this supply and it is not a field conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMoisture, and the two things not in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn aftercooler is fitted, which cools the discharge air at the machine so the moisture it carries condenses there and drains, instead of arriving in your pipework. That is a substantial improvement over a machine without one, and it is not the same as drying the air. Our specification record lists \u003cstrong\u003eno air dryer\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eno electronic drain valve\u003c\/strong\u003e on this configuration, so receiver draining is a manual routine somebody has to own, and moisture-sensitive work needs a dryer added.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA small inconsistency in our data\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer's overview gives the sound-attenuated cabinet as 69 dB(A). A separate noise field on our record shows a slightly lower number for the same machine. It is a small enough difference not to change where you would put the compressor, and we mention it because it is better coming from us than being noticed later: if you are working to a written noise limit in a lease or a local rule, ask us to confirm the figure from the manufacturer specification sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShops on a 208-230V three-phase service\u003c\/strong\u003e that want a mid-range screw machine without adding a transformer.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDusty trades\u003c\/strong\u003e — sanding, grinding, blasting — where the motor enclosure rating earns its money.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMulti-bay service work\u003c\/strong\u003e with continuous rather than occasional air demand.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eInstallations where the supply may be reconnected later\u003c\/strong\u003e, and rotation protection is worth having permanently.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat Is in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe complete tank-mounted unit: 20 HP TEFC IP55 motor and rotary air end on the 120-gallon horizontal ASME receiver, in the attenuated cabinet, with magnetic starter, 24V microprocessor controller, oil sight glass and aftercooler fitted as standard.

That covers the pressure vessel — its design, material, fabrication and inspection — and it is a genuine third-party code requirement rather than a manufacturer's own assertion. It is the certification that inspectors and insurers ask about, because the vessel is the part storing the energy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt says nothing about the machine as an electrical assembly, and our data claims no listing of that kind for this package. Given how much of this page is about electrical robustness, we would rather draw that line explicitly than let one imply the other. If an equipment-level listing is required by your insurer, your local authority or an internal policy, confirm the requirement and ask us to check it before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eShipping, delivery and pickup\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eShipped by freight to the lower 48 states with the cost quoted live at checkout, so it reflects your address on the day rather than a figure someone typed into a description. Arrange the unload in advance: a forklift rated for a heavy skid, or a collection from the carrier terminal. Residential delivery is available and carries a residential fee, shown at checkout before payment. Schulz equipment can also be collected in Acworth, GA. Inspect the machine before the driver leaves and write any damage onto the delivery paperwork before you sign it — signing clean and calling later is the version that goes badly. Call, text or chat with questions: 866-774-7743.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis unit is listed with a 12-month warranty. Keep the electrical sign-off from commissioning and start the service log immediately; on this class of machine those two documents are what make a claim straightforward. If a fault appears, contact us before anything is opened. Do not dismantle the air end, the separator or the electrical panel ahead of a claim — equipment that has already been apart is a much harder case to argue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schulz of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49287189495962,"sku":"970.3903-0","price":10049.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/coretarps.co.uk\/products\/schulz-srp-4020e-air-compressor","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
