Opinion - Wayne Vaughn Compressor

[bradysdad]

I have an opportunity to purchase an almost brand new Wayne Vaughn compressor for somewhere between $500-$700. Not very familiar with industrial units so looking for some advice. Pics attached.

Thanks!

Looks beautiful. If you've got three phase and a need for the air why not.

If this is a three phase motor, and you have three phase available, it's a no-brainer. If you don't have three phase, better not to try to make this work on single phase. As a (gross) generalization, three phase compressors do not like phase converters. This is not to say it can't be done. If you want to try it, do your research first.

Wayne compressors are top grade stuff. Do a search of this forum and you will find several Wayne threads.
