So I have a small shop, currently running on a 30 year old 10hp, 2 stage cast iron pump air compressor.
The pump is making ugly noise.
I have a brother S700, A Fadal 3016 and a Hardinge conquest lathe. At most, there are two machines running at once.
The old ac would cycle about 4 times an hour.
I'm considering a Chicago Pneumatic QRS7.5HP-3
Chicago Pneumatic Quiet Rotary Screw 7.5HP Air Compressor - QRS7.5HP-3, Chicago Pneumatic: Auto Body Toolmart
Any opinions? Is this an appropriate sized unit?
Maintenance costs good or bad?
Thanks
