Read those two facts together, because separately they mislead. Plenty of compressors will quote an airflow figure; far fewer are rated to produce it without stopping. A piston compressor advertising similar output is quoting what it can do during its pumping phase, and it must then rest. This rotary screw is designed to hold 38.8 CFM as a steady state, hour after hour. If you have ever watched shop pressure sag at 3pm on a busy day, that distinction is the one you are actually shopping for.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIt is a 10 HP oil-injected rotary screw on a 120-gallon receiver, running a TEFC motor through a long-life V-belt drive, wired for three-phase power at 208, 230 or 460V.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eAuto-Dual control, and why it is not just an on\/off switch\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe unit uses Auto-Dual control, which lets you set a timed shutdown rather than leaving the machine to idle indefinitely between demands. A rotary screw that runs unloaded still consumes real power — it is turning the airend and driving the cooling fan for no output. On a shop with irregular demand, the ability to say \"if nothing has been drawn for this long, stop\" is straightforwardly money. On a shop with steady demand, you set it long and the machine simply stays on load. One control, two very different operating profiles, and the choice is yours rather than the factory's.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eWhy a screw compressor tolerates continuous running\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn a reciprocating pump, every stroke reverses the direction of a piston. That reversal is where the heat, the vibration and the wear come from, and it is why duty cycle is a limit rather than a footnote. A screw compressor has two rotors turning continuously in one direction, with oil injected to seal, cool and lubricate the compression. Nothing stops and reverses. The result is low vibration, a machine that can be sited without a heavy inertia base, and a duty rating of 100% that is a design property rather than an optimistic reading of a test.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eLubrication and downstream cleanliness\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePremium synthetic lubricant rated for up to 8,000 hours does two jobs here. It stretches the service interval, and it keeps oil carryover low — important on a screw compressor, because oil is injected into the compression chamber by design and whatever is not separated out ends up in your air. Low carryover means less loading on downstream filtration and cleaner air at the tool.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eWill It Fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFootprint.\u003c\/strong\u003e 76\" long by 25\" wide.

That is a genuine third-party construction and test standard for the tank itself, and nothing more than that should be read into it. It says nothing about the electrical assembly or the enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWe hold no record of a further safety listing on this machine, and we are not going to imply one. This matters in practice, because some insurers, fleet policies and local jurisdictions require a specific third-party listing on permanently installed shop equipment before they will sign off an installation. If that is your situation, find out precisely which listing is required and check it against the unit's data plate before purchase. We will go through the factory documentation with you if it helps.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eBefore You Order — Please Confirm\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhether an air dryer is fitted.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the important one on this listing. The product feature list includes an integrated refrigerated air dryer. Our specification record for the same unit says the air dryer is \"No\". Those cannot both be true, and a dryer is not a detail — it changes the price, the footprint, the condensate handling and whether your air is fit for paint. We are therefore not claiming a dryer on this page, and we are not claiming its absence either. If dry air is why you are buying, contact us and we will confirm the exact build against the factory order before anything ships.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSound level.\u003c\/strong\u003e The machine has an enclosure designed to reduce noise and the current copy describes it as quiet, but the decibel figure in our data is not recorded against a unit of measure we can verify, so no number is published above. Ask us if a sound limit is a site requirement.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eShipping and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFreight to the lower 48 states, free of charge. It ships as a 775 lb palletised unit, so plan the unload before it arrives: forklift, dock, or terminal pickup at the carrier's depot. A residential delivery address adds a residential fee, shown with the freight quote at checkout. Check the machine over on arrival — panels, receiver, feet, control head — and note any damage on the bill of lading before you sign it. Signing clean and calling later is the one sequence that reliably loses a freight claim.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThere are three tiers here and only one of them is automatic. The standard factory warranty is 1 year. An extended 3-year factory warranty is available. The True Blue 5-year warranty is offered with a Quincy authorized start-up — that is a condition, not a formality, so if the 5-year term matters to you, book the authorized start-up as part of the installation. Retro-fitting the paperwork after the machine has been running is not usually accepted.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIf anything goes wrong, call us before the enclosure is opened and before anyone touches the airend. Disassembly ahead of a claim is the most common way a covered failure stops being covered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quincy Compressor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54965130461523,"sku":"4152021972","price":5551.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/progradewarehouse.com\/products\/quincy-4152021972-air-compressor","provider":"PRO GRADE WAREHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
