On air delivery in cfm against what the tools draw, then tank size against how continuously they run. Maximum pressure here reaches 150psi and is stated per machine.

Direct drive puts the pump on the motor shaft, which makes the machine lighter, cheaper and more portable. It also turns faster and runs louder. Belt drive turns the pump slower and runs cooler and quieter.

With a quiet run machine. The Clarke Shhh Air range is built for it and suits a workshop where people are working and talking alongside the compressor rather than in a separate plant room.

Where oil carryover cannot be tolerated in the air, which rules out a lubricated pump whatever filtration is fitted. The ABAC oil free machines cover that case on this leaf.

Because compressing air concentrates the moisture already in it, which condenses in the tank and travels down the line. A refrigerant dryer removes it before it reaches the tool, and draining the tank deals with what has already collected.

To the flow it has to treat, not to the compressor casing. The Clarke CRD ladder runs 42 to 371cfm and the FSN external dryers on the D-MOK ladder run 12 to 589cfm, so the dryer is matched to the delivery figure.

Direct drive puts the pump on the motor shaft, which makes the machine lighter, cheaper and more portable than a belt drive of the same output. It also makes it faster turning and louder, which is the trade. Delivery in cfm is still the number to size on, with maximum pressure here reaching 150psi. It is also why direct drive dominates the portable end of the market and belt drive dominates the fixed end.

Tank size runs a very wide span on this leaf, from 2 litres on a portable up to 1700 litres on a fixed installation. The small end is for a tool used occasionally, the large end for a line feeding several outlets. Supply runs 12V through to 240V, with voltage stated on 94 of the 199 lines.

Air treatment is the third question and it is the one most often skipped. Compressing air concentrates the moisture in it, which then condenses in the tank and reaches the tool as spray. A refrigerant dryer removes it before it gets there, and the Clarke CRD ladder runs 42 to 371cfm with FSN external dryers on the D-MOK ladder from 12 to 589cfm. A dryer sized below the flow it has to treat passes wet air through untouched, so the flow figure is matched rather than approximated.

Quiet run and oil free machines cover the two special cases. A quiet run body suits a workshop where people talk, and an oil free pump suits work where oil carryover cannot be tolerated. Wall mounted forms free the floor entirely. Sizing a dryer to a compressor goes over WhatsApp on 07754288583 with both delivery figures. Compressor pumps and dryer service tools are seated on the same leaf for machines already installed.
