Description
Overview
The BendPak VMP-7580V-601 is a 7.5 HP, two-stage V-Max Patriot air compressor on an 80-gallon vertical ASME tank, wired for 208-230V single-phase power. It uses the four-cylinder V-Max pump built from 100 percent cast iron for extreme-duty service.
This unit is aimed at shops that have outgrown a 5 HP compressor but still run single-phase power. The slow-turning cast-iron pump and forced-air after-cooler hold operating temperatures down, which keeps the air drier and the maintenance lighter across heavy daily use.
Key Features
- 7.5 HP motor, 208-230V single phase - draws 32 amps on a 50-amp breaker, with a magnetic starter for thermal overload protection.
- V-Max four-cylinder cast-iron pump - two-stage design with a V-4 finned cylinder layout for 360-degree cooling and high air delivery.
- 80-gallon vertical ASME tank - large reserve with a compact footprint for a busy bay.
- Dual drive belts and fully enclosed belt guard - lower belt tension means longer belt and bearing life and reduced vibration.
- Assembled in the USA - UL and ASME certified, built for continuous shop duty.
