What compressor pump is this?

[bastage]

I am looking for a 30 gallon receiver to downsize from a 60 & this is about an hour & a half from me. I cant figure out what the pump is to see if its worth a **** or not. I would be converting it to electric & sticking it under a shelf in my little garage.

Receiver is a 1987 is that helps to narrow down what this guy is.

anyone?

I see Kohler on there, but I don’t know anything about them, sorry and good luck!

the motor is Kohler but I don't know if they made the compressor?

Yeah I know the motor is a Kohler, but thats going to get trashed.. Its just the pump I am trying to figure out so I can pull specs to see what it will do with an electric motor & what hp motor I would need to pair with it.

This is a Campbell Hausfeld TK series. True 5hp compressor that should give you about 17cfm @100psi. It will max out around 175psi, but I'd keep it around 150.

Looks like a Campbell Hausfield, most likely an older version of either the TF2111 or XP2101 which are 7.5/5 HP pumps respectively and capable of pushing 23/16 CFM at 175psi. You'll need to find the exact model and then check for parts availability as not all CH pumps of that vintage are still supported.

Thank you both. I was thinking CH as well. But I couldn't find any images with the 1/4" lines front & top. Would those of been added after the pump was made?

Looks like it's part of the unloader plumbing. On a pressure lubed pump this would keep the unloaders activated until oil presser is built. I would have thought this pump was splash lubed but perhaps not.

Looks like it's part of the unloader plumbing for continuous run.

Then can just be capped off for use with an electric motor?

 

[zekgb64]

See my edit, it may be an oil pressure unloader, but you'll need to check with CH. If it's for continuous run then you can cap it off, but I don't see a pilot valve in those pics so not really sure what's going on there.

Thank you for the explanation. Sounds like its going to be more trouble then its worth. I will either pick it up & scrap the pump along with the motor or I will just pass all together until something better comes up. Its really just dropping down to 30 gallons I want & I have a kellogg american k321 in my garage right now. But it along with its matching original 71 year old 60 gallon tank seem like they should stay together.

The line to the back end of the crankshaft is a blow down line that dumps air pressure through a Schraeder-like valve that is actuated by a flyweight governor assembly in the conical shaped cover whenever the pump comes to a stop. One line sends high pressure air to actuate the pilot control valve that governs the motor. The third is a bit of a mystery.

Given how little of that I understand I am going to go ahead & not bother with this pump.
