speedaire specs

[wadleigh pond welder]

hi all, this is my first post to the journal, i just purchased an old speedaire compressor that the seller told me he purchased new in 1984. the plate only states that the model is a 3Z495 2 stage and is rated to be run from 3-5 hp, this is powered with a 5. what i would like to know is how many cfm @ 90 psi could i expect. any info will be appreciated thank you all.

It should say somewhere what the CFM is. Somewhere there should be a decal on the side of the compressor.

Lacking that here's where you can purchase a manual, or maybe download it for free.

Speedaire compressors are great. I use mine all the time:

the only thing it says on the plate besides the model number is 3-5 hp, so i figured that simply meant a min of 3hp and max of 5hp but it did not say what to expect for cfm @ 90 psi, thanks

Try calling Granger's customer service to see if they have the manual they can email to you.
