Product Details
The California Air Tools 20060DCC ultra quiet, ultra dry oil-free air compressor features a 98% air drying system and is one of the quietest 6.0 HP air compressors available, operating at only 78 decibels. It is powered by three 2.0 HP (SP-9421-22060) motors that run at just 1680 RPM, resulting in reduced noise and wear. The SP series motors are engineered to enhance the duty cycle, enabling longer continuous operation, with the ability to run continuously at 6.0 CFM @90 PSI for up to 6 hours or intermittently at 12.0 CFM @90 PSI. This model includes a high-performance oil-free dual piston pump, boasting a lifespan of over 3000 hours before wear, significantly outperforming many comparable air compressors that typically last 1500 hours or less. The oil-free design allows for operation in varied temperature conditions and ensures clean air free from oil. With a large 20-gallon steel air tank, this compressor is suitable for applications such as dental practices, clean rooms in milling and manufacturing, and general pneumatics requiring clean ultra-dry air. The incorporated aftercooler and twin-tower auto purging system effectively remove up to 98% of water vapor. Condensed water vapor is collected and processed through the air dryer, which utilizes easy-to-replace "spin-on" cartridges containing a regenerating high-temperature molecular sieve desiccant. This cartridge has an average lifespan of 2 years before replacement. The design emphasizes power, dry air, airflow, and reduced service needs, all while producing at least 30% less noise.
