How about the same wire feeding 2 separate disconnects?

I have an IR compressor 7.5 Baldor motor and a MiniMax MM16 Italian 4.8 hp motor bandsaw. 33A & 24A. They will live next to each other and not be used together, my compressor is powered off if not using. I'm running 6/2 wire to an AC disconnect about 12-14 ft with a 60 amp breaker at my main...

Please give the amps of that motor, otherwise just making educated guesses. HP means very little these days.

CL is your friend, keep looking for as large a compressor as your shop can fit. You will never need another compressor if you find a good old Champion, IR, Kellogg or Quincy. I just got an american made IR t30 7.5 Baldor that looks brand new for $800. Just saw a Champion upright 7.5 80 gallon...

I got one sitting, cant wait to play with it. Thanks for the heads up on consumables.

Two stage pumps have to have at least two cylinders, one is high pressure and one low pressure. One stage pumps can have one or more cylinders. An estimate for CFM is 4+ per true HP of the motor. Like everyone is saying, get the best you can afford. As you see looking at used compressors...

Spend some time on CL. I spent about 3 weeks checking intermittently. Found older T30 2475 with USA compressor for a couple hundred less than the TS or 2340 will run ya. Theyre out there, spend a couple weeks before you spend your money its worth it

I found a bunch of late model, 5 hp 2 stage units for $400-600 that were not in a place to test. Found several nice older units with 3 phase power for cheap $200-400 Finally found a 2475, with USA compressor, ready to run for a few buck more ($800 and he loads my truck for me). Its worth it...

Found a newer IR 2475 circa 2000 for a little more than the price of the Curtis plus a new motor. P/U next week

So I found out its a 2000 build, bought by the seller new. Runs in his garage, non commercial. Will pick up next week. IR 2475 T30 made in the USA compressor. Cant wait. Thanks for the wealth of info on this to help out with decisions

Does anyone know when they stopped being made in the USA? Ive looked at a couple on CL. One was the new tan color, and the pump had made in USA cast, but a second was the older gray color but the pump didnt have made in USA casting. Any ideas? Pump replaced maybe. Am I not correct in the...

Baldor is $300 on eBay. Not sure how much a rebuild will cost but with the motor and the compressor Ill be into less than $500 plus a mag switch depending on what he has on it. If I can come out 700-800 for a well built old machine would be ok. Im also going to look at an IR 2340 with 5hp/60g...

I just plan on putting a 5hp single phase Baldor on it and poss changing out the mag starter

Hey all, have chance to get s Curtis 80 gallon w 3 phase 5hp for less than $200. Seller says it fills to 150psi but the pump is noisy. Without breaking it down I wont know for sure, but can anyone give me some ideas as to what it might be? Not knocking just noisier running that it should is...
