Compressor Pump Identification Help and Motor Sizing

I bought this Wayne Air Compressor locally today, and it came with a burnt up motor. I'm trying to find some info on the compressor and recommended motors.

EDIT: It turns out the pump is not a Wayne Unit. It is a cast aluminum pump with the following model number on it: 5CN 52668. It has a 16.5" pulley and was connected to a 5hp motor 3450rpm, that was burnt out. Does anyone recognize this pump at all? More pictures a couple posts down.

Make sure the tank isn't full of water, not 100% sure the pump is a Wayne?

I will double check the tank.

I checked the number again, it is 5CN 52668.

That LOOKS like a Rolair pump (K28? K30?). Better photos in daylight would help a lot.

Looking those up, I think it does seem like that. If it is, he was running it with a 5hp at the 7.5hp speed. That would explain why it burnt the motor.

Well, looking at the pump, it seems a bit different than the rollair ones. Intake and high pressure exit are on the same side of the pump. There is a copper tube that runs behind the fan that must connect the 2 stages. It's just a cast aluminum pump too, doesn't weigh much.

Pump is probably a clone replacement, not a factory Wayne pump.

Probably nothing special then I'm guessing. Oh well. Still a decent deal in the end.
