Porter-Cable C6110 15 Amp 2-Horsepower 25-Gallon Oil-Free Wheeled Vertical Compressor

by Porter-Cable

Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

With its compact, vertical design, this oil-free compressor supports nailers and other air tools. Complete with nine wheels and a comfortable padded metal handle for easy portability, the C6110's most helpful, time-saving feature is its ability to provide 25 gallons of air tank reserve at a 150 PSI maximum pressure. Here's how it works: A pressure switch controller automatically starts the motor again once it hits the 120 PSI pressure point, which means the C6110 supplies 71 percent more usable air over other 125 PSI maximum air pressure models, and cuts down on wait times between re-charges. A 15 Amp circuit is the power source for the 120 volt, 1.9 running HP capacitor start induction motor, which delivers 7.7 SCFM at 40 PSI and 5.4 SCFM at 90 PSI. And because this system is oil-free, you won't have to worry about the mess and danger of spills. Offering an ASME-approved reserve air tank, the CUL-listed C6110 comes with a high air flow regulator, high flow quick coupler, and two gages.

Great compressor and design. Works well for inflating and small air tools. (impact, ratchet, grinder...) Quieter than expected and vertical design takes up less space than old horizontal model. Recommend over comparable models. Only concern for some may be the lack of a shroud around the motor and tubing which get very hot. Not an issue if compressor is located out of the way and longer hose used.

Having gone through 10+ compressors of different brands in the last 8 years, I can readily recommend this compressor. Don't make the mistake of purchasing a compressor with an inadequate tank size, as the motors on even the best brands will quickly burn out. This compressor outputs a consistantly high pressure, so you can operate tools such as nailers with predictably even pressure. It runs relatively quiet for a unit of this size, and the vertical tank makes draining the tank much easier than with hotdog or pancake type units.

5.0 out of 5 stars P-C 2 HP Vertical Compressor, May 2, 2008

This review is from: Porter-Cable C6110 15 Amp 2-Horsepower 25-Gallon Oil-Free Wheeled Vertical Compressor (Tools & Home Improvement)

Compressor arrived faster than expected, even with the free economy shipping. Item was well packaged and operated to spec pressure right out of the box but lost about 10-15 psi after siting for a week. Checking all fitings and tank drain valve for tightness seems to have taken care of the problem. The vertical shape is ideal for my small shop. At 2 hp/25 gal/7.5 scfm should provide all the air you will need for nailing/spray painting/etc. atDIY/homeowner/small shop levels. At over 100 lbs. I wouldn't consider it portable; might want to consider a smaller pancake unit if you do a lot of field installations. Keep in mind also that this unit does not come with an air hose. You'll have to buy one separately and don't forget the quick-release fitings.
