Air compressor identification

[laddy]

Looking at picking up a larger air compressor to replace my smaller single stage unit. This one popped up in the local classifieds, I swear I have seen this brand(i thought it said AB and this grey.blue/green color) before but after an hour of googling I cant seem to find any that have a similar markings on the front.

I'll post it via a different source than imgur, one moment

imgur doesn't play well with GJ. you need to remove the "S" from "HTTPS" in your link

AB is probably the name of the electrical company, Allen Bradley . is it on a switch or something electrical?

Looks like its working now, maybe its a no name and I'm just getting my wires crossed, lost of older compressors seem to be that blue/green/silver color from my searching.

Sometimes a local air compressor service company will put their sticker on the tank.

I could be wrong but I don't think what we think of when we hear AB here, Allen-Bradley, an industrial electrical manufacturer, ever sold air compressors.

The pump looks an Italian import pump that is also used by Rol-Air, ABAC, Snap On, among other companies that sell air compressors.

My guess is that the pump is a replacement for what was on there originally. Typically if the discharge tube from the pump to the tank is painted green, the pump would usually have been painted green also.

That makes sense, for some reason I thought I had seen more around and it was a kellog, curtis, quincy, SB, kind of brand. I must have associated the colors with them or something. Guess I'm back on the hunt.

Its a Chinook pump. Parts come from Rol-Air. Ok unit. Many entry level commercial units use the pump. You're gonna blow through interstage manifold gaskets.
