Description
Overview
The EMAX ESP10V120V1 is a Silent Air Industrial Plus 10 HP, 120-gallon two-stage reciprocating air compressor on 230V single-phase power. It delivers 38 CFM at 100 PSI from a four-cylinder cast iron pump.
This unit pairs the largest single-phase output in the line with a 120-gallon tank, automatic drain, belt tensioner, and continuous-run capability, so a single-phase shop gets strong air and longer run cycles. The pump builds to 175 PSI and the big tank cuts cycling. The Silent Air design runs noticeably quieter than a standard open compressor, which matters when the unit sits in an occupied shop bay.
Key Features
- 38 CFM at 100 PSI - 10 HP four-cylinder two-stage pump output for steady air delivery.
- Two-stage pressure to 175 PSI - on an 120-gallon vertical tank that holds reserve for demand spikes.
- Pressure-lubricated pump - a gear-driven oil pump feeds each bearing for continuous-duty cooling and long pump life.
- Cast iron pump - crankcase, cylinders, and heads in cast iron for heat tolerance under load.
- 230V single-phase power - ODP motor on a 60 amp recommended breaker.
- Belt tensioner and isolator pads - simplify belt service and cut transmitted vibration.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much air does the ESP10V120V1 deliver?
It is rated at 38 CFM at 100 PSI from a 10 HP pump, with a maximum pressure of 175 PSI. Size your tools to stay within that delivery at working pressure.
What power does it require?
It runs on 230V single-phase power with a recommended 60 amp breaker. Confirm your service before installation.
Is the pump pressure or splash lubricated?
This pump is pressure lubricated. A gear-driven oil pump delivers oil to the bearings and connecting rods, which suits higher duty cycles.
What maintenance does it need?
Routine care is oil changes, belt checks, and tank draining. EMAX rates the pump for an estimated 70,000 hours of service life with proper maintenance, and service kits are available.
Why is this listed as oversize freight?
Crated weight is over 1,000 lb, which puts it in the oversize freight class. Plan for forklift offload and request a freight quote before ordering.
