I have a ch compressor. It is a twin cylinder pump turning less than 900 rpms, the motor pulls 15 amps on 110 volt current. It is mounted on a 30 gallon tank. Any guesses to how long it should take to go from a 100psi to 125psi?? Or what kind of time would be considered too long?? And campbell rates these compressor pretty high, do you think it would hold up for something say like a small engine mechanic, using ratchets and impacts?? Or could it power like framing guns?? I am just tryng to get some ideas on what my compresor could handle..

Thanks guys!! chris

I have a twin cyclinder CH compressor, 5hp, on a 26 gallon tank. I bought it in 1998 and its suited me up to now, driving my 1/2" impact and lesser demand air tools fine. It does not keep up very well when I'm using my die grinder with a cut off disk or wire brush, other than that its a relaible compressor for my weekend/hobby work. I don't think it would stand up to daily, hard use.

I have a 5hp 20 gal CH compressor and it handles air tools in my farm shop OK, painting, air nibbler, air ratchets, drill etc. I seldom have to wait for more air unless I am dogging it. Then again, this is not a mechanics shop with multiple stations plumbed to it. I would think your 30 gal twin cylinder would do anythnig you mentioned for an individual. Don't count on it for industrial or like a shop of 3 or 4 mechanics unless you add more air storage.
