The HY5508 features 4 robust rubber mounted feet and a carry handle for easy manoeuvrability. Powered By Standard Mains Supply The Hyundai HY5508 240V 550W 0.75hp 8L Air Compressor is ideal for DIYers in the garden and the workshop. It is also very useful for blowing up tyres. This versatile air compressor is powered by a 550W, 240V Direct Drive Electric motor that can provide 4 CFM of air displacement. Being electric it is completely oil free so there is no chance of contamination with the added bonus of being low maintenance. The tank has a capacity of 8 Litres that is capable of providing an air displacement of 4CFM/120 Litres and a maximum pressure of 7bar/100psi and is made from highly durable steel. This means that you can take advantage of impressive results without worrying about wear and tear. In use, the Hyundai HY5508 is most suited for lower intensity tasks such as the blowing off of dust and debris from objects and surfaces as well as the inflating of tyres and inflatables. It is also ideal for powering small brad air nailers and air staplers although it will struggle with the larger finishing and framing air nail guns. The HY5508 is also particularly well-suited for airbrushing (when used in conjunction with an air regulator (as discussed above) to reduce the outlet air pressure to approximately 15-25 psi in addition to a moisture trap or filter). The air receiver on the HY5508 is relatively large compared to bespoke airbrush compressors, providing a more sustained and consistent flow of air. In contrast, although the Hyundai HY5508 can run an HPLV air spray gun for a limited amount of time, one will constantly be waiting for the air tank to refill during use, making it inadequate for any serious amount of air spray painting. The Hyundai HY5508 is also too small for heavier air-consuming tasks, such as use with air orbital sanders or sandblasting cabinets.

Low Noise - The Hyundai HY5508 Air Compressor has a low noise output at around the 60dB mark. Such a low noise causes minimal disruption to family, staff, customers, etc. With a 50 litre tank capacity this compressor provides an air displacement of 11CFM/ 300 litres per minute and a discharge pressure of 7 bar/ 100 psi. Automatic Stop Start Another notable difference worth mentioning is that on more recent units of the Hyundai HY5508 (and Hyundai air compressors in general) there no longer is a pressure-release pull-ring which has historically been used to vent tank air through the pressure release safety valve. The pull-ring on Hyundai air compressors has been removed to conform to recently updated safety compliance regulation which has advised removing the ring to prevent users from using the safety valve to vent the tank. Using the pressure release safety valve to vent the tank in normal operations has caused cases of excessive wear on the safety valve whose primary function is to protect users if a malfunction in pressurising the tank occurs. As a result, on Hyundai air compressors, air can now only be vented through the drain valve located on the underside of the air tank. Like other budget air compressors, the Orazio line of air compressors are imports from China and, as one has come to expect from other products from the Far East, component quality as well as quality control between individual units can be variable. Perhaps it is no surprise then that the technical specifications for the Orazio air compressors are incomplete and even sometimes inconsistent. For example, the airflow for the 24L Orazio machine is given as either 4.77 cfm or as 95 L / min, which is actually equal to 3.4 cfm, and it is not clear as to whether this value represents the air displacement of the compressor or its free air delivery (FAD). Given the low 1 horsepower (hp) of the motor on the Orazio machine, our inclination is to assume the lower of these two values (95L / min) should be taken as the correct airflow amount (it is also assumed to represent the FAD rather than air displacement). The HY27550 is a powerful yet compact 1500w oil free low noise, often known as a ‘silent’ air compressor from Hyundai. Designed for DIY and trade applications the HY27550 silenced oil free air compressor is ideal for spray-painting, blowing away dirt and dust, nailing, inflating tyres or operating air tools. LightweightSuitability - The Hyundai HY5508 Air Compressor is ideal for homes, workshops, garages, etc. It can be used for spray painting, blowing away dirt/dust, nailing, inflating tyres, operating air tools, and more. It has a cool white exterior which looks professional. Great little compressor, using it for midi spraying with small CFM gun and general tools. So much quieter than my old direct drive on, very happy. The Hyundai HY5508 compressor is a piece of equipment used to pressurize air for various purposes. It is a portable device that requires a power source to operate. The compressor has a maximum pressure output of 120 PSI, which is suitable for a wide range of applications, from inflating car tires to powering pneumatic tools. The motor is capable of producing 1.5 horsepower, making the compressor efficient and powerful. Pressure safety valves on Hyundai air compressors have been updated in compliance with the latest CE certification standards. The pressure release pull ring has been removed from the safety valve to prevent it from being misused to drain the air from the compressor tank, causing excessive wear to the valve. Air and moisture should always be released using the drain valve located on the bottom of the tank. Warranty With an 8-litre tank capacity, this compressor provides an air displacement of 4CFM/ 120 litres per minute and a maximum pressure of 7 bar/ 100psi.

Draper Tools sells a wide range of air compressors of all shapes and sizes designed to cater to a range of users both professional and of the DIYer persuasion. One of the more popular air compressors of their range is the DA25/207 (model number 24980) which is a good fit for the regular non-professional consumer. The Draper air compressor has a 24L air receiver which is filled by a 2hp or 1.5kW electric motor up to the standard maximum pressure of 116 PSI. This translates into an air displacement figure of 7.3 CFM and a more important metric for free air delivery of 4 CFM (which is the number to use when determining whether air tools are compatible). This free air delivery value is relatively low compared to competitor machines of the same level and is mainly the result of the lower power motor taking slightly longer to fill the air tank. I'm a long time DIYer and have owned a 25ltr compressor for around 20 years. It started getting less reliable so I looked around for an alternative. The 'silent' range caught my eye and I nearly went for a like for like replacement - in the end I upgraded to the 50Ltr model.The noise level is such that i dont need to raise my voice and it cant be heard outside of the garage at all which is all i can ask for. I out it under a workbench and it muffled it further so its barely noticable over the various hums from other equipment in my garage. Powered by a 550W, 240V Direct Drive Electric Motor that provides 4 CFM of Air Displacement - The 8-litre tank is capable of 120 Litres / Minute at 100PSI Oil Free - The compressor has an oil free design. This means that there's no possibility of oil contaminating the air supply. Surprisingly quiet, which will help if I forget to turn it off and it starts up in the small hours. It is pretty powerful - buzzed off the wheel nuts my previous compressor struggled with. Very well made and the dual compressor system is elegant. Competitively priced - so all good really!
