It is the same shop-duty machine as the horizontal EC5H8, stood up on a vertical tank so it occupies roughly a four square foot footprint instead of a bench-length run of wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo-stage compression squeezes the air twice, with an intercooler between the low-pressure and high-pressure cylinders, so the pump reaches a full 175 PSI without the heat and wear a single-stage pump takes to get there. The vertical tank is the right choice when floor space is the constraint and ceiling height is not: automotive bays with a crowded footprint, fabrication shops, tire service and general plant air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorsepower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePump:\u003c\/strong\u003e EC5, two-stage, belt driven, cast iron, 700 RPM slow speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 CFM at 175 PSI on single phase, 17 CFM at 175 PSI on three phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 175 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 gallon vertical, ASME coded, made in the USA, supplied with safety valve and drain valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 820 lb.

The automatic tank drain discharges condensate on its own, which protects the tank and keeps full air storage available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the three-phase Basic Unit covers two voltages\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 230V and 460V three-phase Basic Units share one part number, E1013, because the motor is dual-voltage 230\/460V and the starter, which is the component that fixes the supply voltage, is not part of a Basic Unit. The 208V three-phase Basic Unit, E10138, is a separate part number. On the With Starter and Package configurations every voltage has its own part number because the starter is matched to the supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVertical or horizontal\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC5V8 and the EC5H8 use the identical EC5 pump, motor and 80 gallon ASME tank capacity, and deliver the same 16 to 17 CFM at 175 PSI. The only real differences are the footprint and 40 lb of tank steel. Choose vertical to save floor area, horizontal where ceiling clearance, a mezzanine or a low overhead run is the limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTypical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAutomotive service bays running impact tools and lifts, body and paint shops, welding and fabrication benches, tire service, woodworking shops, and general plant air where a steady 175 PSI supply is needed from a permanent install in a tight footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOptions we can add\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeltguard-mounted aftercoolers, special electrical enclosures, TEFC or explosion-proof motors, special voltages and starter configurations, a low-range 30 to 40 PSI pressure switch, and dryers, filters, regulators or coalescers. These units are built to order, so talk to us before you buy if you need the package configured a particular way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AirComParts EC5V8 pairs a 5 HP motor with a 175 PSI two-stage EC5 pump and an 80 gallon vertical ASME tank, in Basic, With Starter and full Package configurations across 230V single-phase and 208\/230\/460V three-phase.
