Air Compressor Identification

Any have any info on this compressor.

Most importantly could find online was a company Worldwide Electric Company. Same logo as on the compressor. Their website doesn't have any mention of air compressors.

Looks like a World Wide Electric Corp with a Baldor motor.

Thanks for fixing the link. I'm wondering if anyone has any opinions on this brand of compressor. I may call Worldwide
Electric today and see if they can give me the specs.

Are you able to read the picture of the tag from your phone?

Model # WF410822-05V5

Serial # W157275860

MFG # CAP 51-80V

Below MFG box there the numbers 100201

Motor tag is blurry but 5 HP, 230V, 24 amps, 1725 RPM.

They must have assembled compressors under their own brand for a short time. I have come across a couple other WWE compressors on online auction/bid sites, but they had different pumps on them than this one.

I can't identify the pump, which appears to be all cast-iron. Given that Worldwide Electric's reason for being and primary expertise (from their own website) is sourcing foreign-made components, this pump could be from anywhere in the world. I can say that you might have issues sourcing parts for it!

Ya I kinda agree. Went for $481. I passed. It was listed as unknown working condition not worth taking the risk.

Wish I hadn't sold my 80 gallon 2 stage 2 1/2 years ago and bought a 30 gallon single stage when I moved into a rental.

I'm now buying a house with a 30 x 40 pole barn that has 100 amp service. I want a real compressor again. I'll keep looking something will pop up.
