Compressors

[sjc]

Anyone know anything about them,sell them or know a good source for one? I'm buying a machine that comes with a compressor but it's the noisy type, and I'm looking at getting a quiet/silent one.Needs to be (or close to) 1hp, 5 cubic ft/min and 25-50ltr tank.
Thnks in advance

Speak to PHer toolsnstuff-couk.
He doesn't post very often so mail him through his profile.
From all accounts he's a very helpful chap

We use these at work, have proved reliable and their not too expensive.

You'll struggle to find a quiet compressor unless you go for a monster screw type. Small ones spin at high rpm to get the FAD anything like: even bigger ones running twin pistons are still noisy.
I have two here: both 2-piston 9 cfm, one with 100L and one with 150L tanks. I've been planning a soundproof enclosure for three years...
