Designed for DIY and light applications the HY5508 silenced oil-free air compressor is ideal for air brushing, blowing away dirt and dust, nailing, inflating tyres & inflatables or operating air tools. Ultra Lightweight Compressor This maintenance-free compressor uses an oil-free diaphragm pump to produce a clean air supply and considerably reduce noise compared to conventional piston compressors. 8L Tank

Pressure safety valves on Hyundai air compressors have been updated in compliance with the latest CE certification standards. The pressure release pull ring has been removed from the safety valve to prevent it from being misused to drain the air from the compressor tank, causing excessive wear to the valve. Air and moisture should always be released using the drain valve located on the bottom of the tank. Warranty I am so impressed with this very quiet and effective compressor. Perfect for my requirements of removing dust from sanded products. Most air compressors are heavy machines, and the Draper DA25/207 is no exception. Like other air compressors, it is made more portable by the addition of wheels and a handle so that it can be moved around the workshop with relative ease. In addition, the Draper machine is a relative lightweight in the air compressor domain coming in at only 24kg. One notable characteristic of this Draper machine is that it is not oil-free, which means it has to be transported in an upright position to minimise any chance of oil leaking from it. Unfortunately, delivery couriers are not always that careful about box orientation, and this can lead to oil leaking from the air compressor during transit creating a cleanup headache for the new owner upon delivery.

Powered by a 550w motor directly connected to the oil-less air compressor pump and rubber mounted for low vibration, makes it ideal for the home, light workshop or garage use and is powered by standard mains 230v supply. Low Noise - The Hyundai HY5508 Air Compressor has a low noise output at around the 60dB mark. Such a low noise causes minimal disruption to family, staff, customers, etc. With an 8-litre tank capacity, this compressor provides an air displacement of 4CFM/ 120 litres per minute and a maximum pressure of 7 bar/ 100psi. Another notable difference worth mentioning is that on more recent units of the Hyundai HY5508 (and Hyundai air compressors in general) there no longer is a pressure-release pull-ring which has historically been used to vent tank air through the pressure release safety valve. The pull-ring on Hyundai air compressors has been removed to conform to recently updated safety compliance regulation which has advised removing the ring to prevent users from using the safety valve to vent the tank. Using the pressure release safety valve to vent the tank in normal operations has caused cases of excessive wear on the safety valve whose primary function is to protect users if a malfunction in pressurising the tank occurs. As a result, on Hyundai air compressors, air can now only be vented through the drain valve located on the underside of the air tank. Powered by a 550W, 230V Direct Drive Electric Motor provides 4 CFM of Air Displacement - The 8-litre tank is capable of 120 Litres / Minute at 100PSI

SIP Industrial is a very reputable British company that has a history of manufacturing tools for both industrial and domestic users, and has been making air compressors of its own since the 1980's. Today the company is involved in producing a variety of different machinery and power tools for a variety of different industries including the consumer market. SIP Industrial sells some of the best air compressor machinery in the UK, so if you are a professional tradesman or just an overactive DIY-er and you have the money to spare for this quality product, then it definitely gets our vote!Like other budget air compressors, the Orazio line of air compressors are imports from China and, as one has come to expect from other products from the Far East, component quality as well as quality control between individual units can be variable. Perhaps it is no surprise then that the technical specifications for the Orazio air compressors are incomplete and even sometimes inconsistent. For example, the airflow for the 24L Orazio machine is given as either 4.77 cfm or as 95 L / min, which is actually equal to 3.4 cfm, and it is not clear as to whether this value represents the air displacement of the compressor or its free air delivery (FAD). Given the low 1 horsepower (hp) of the motor on the Orazio machine, our inclination is to assume the lower of these two values (95L / min) should be taken as the correct airflow amount (it is also assumed to represent the FAD rather than air displacement). Oil Free - The compressor has an oil free design. This means that there's no possibility of oil contaminating the air supply. The wheels are a bit useless, i may have moutned them wrong but the instructions were useless and i couldnt see a better way, thankfully i dont plan to move it but its definitely better than no wheels. WOW ... SO impressed. It fills in about the same time my old 25 ltr took it is SO quiet (for a compressor). I'd say something similar to a modern washing machine.
