Quincy has 5 horse 80 gallon vertical compressors. QT series. Here's a link. Download the QT pdf file. It's the sales brochure for them.
Something like 17+ cfm delivered at 175 psi @ 1060 rpm.
Ahh the sales literature trick.... listing a high pressure of 175psi. The uninformed folks would think it’s a great air compressor (compared to the 100psi rated unit beside it) without realizing hardly any tools require 175psi and free air delivered is a lot lower at that pressure compared to 100psi. Plus cranking your pressure up exacerbates cfm lost to leaks. There’s not much need to operate any system above 100 psi unless you’re blowing PET bottles or the odd application that requires 125 or 140 psi.
Some peeps then get lured by the crazy cfm ratings too. A good rule of thumb for a piston compressor is no more than 4cfm/hp at 100psi. 15cfm from a 2hp compressor at 90 or 100psi isn’t going to happen.
