About this deal

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. Please be advised that Hyundai Power Products now have an extended lead time and you may not receive them next day. The current delivery time is estimated at 2-5 working days.* Oil Free - The compressor has an oil free design. This means that there's no possibility of oil contaminating the air supply. This maintenance-free compressor uses an oil-free diaphragm pump to produce a clean air supply and considerably reduce noise compared to conventional piston compressors. The SIP Airmate TN3.0/50-D compressor is a powerful machine that can generate up to 130 psi of pressure. Together with its 50L air receiver and relatively high Free Air Delivery of 9.5 CFM (air displacement of 14 CFM), it is a compressor that is capable of running the majority of air tools out there. Unlike some of its competitor products in its category and even though it has a powerful 3 hp motor, it is still able to safely operate off a normal 13A household plug. Some of that electrical efficiency comes from the twin, V-shaped pump motor design that it uses.

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. Lightweight Weighing only 15kg the HY5508 whisper compressor is lighter than your conventional piston type air compressor and is completely oil-free, so there is no risk of oil contamination in the air supply. The Richmond 24L air compressor also uses oil for lubrication of its working parts, and so requires a little extra monitoring and maintenance compared to oil-free air compressors. Fortunately, to make things a tad easier, the ParkerBrand air compressor (like its SGS Engineering equivalent) has an oil inspection window integrated into the machine allowing for closer monitoring of oil levels.

The motor on the Orazio machine is one of the smaller motors available for a 24L air receiver operating at only 750W or 1 hp. This means that although it can attain the same maximum pressure level as other 24L machines, it takes longer to do so, and will not be able to produce the same level of consistent airflow as air compressors with larger motors. However, it is not all bad having a smaller motor as the flip side is that the 24L Orazio air compressor is one of the quietest in its category emitting an operating sound of only 65 dB. The smaller motor also means an overall lighter weight machine which is easier to carry around and manoeuvre compared to its competitors. Designed for DIY and light applications the HY5508 silenced oil-free air compressor is ideal for air brushing, blowing away dirt and dust, nailing, inflating tyres & inflatables or operating air tools.

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 wheels are a bit useless, i may have moutned them wrong but the instructions were useless and i couldnt see a better way, thankfully i dont plan to move it but its definitely better than no wheels. The 24 litre Orazio air compressor is one of the budget entries into the consumer air compressor market and is primarily targeted at lower airflow applications such as airbrushing, vehicle tyre inflation or air nail gun operation. It is the mid-sized offering positioned between 9L and 45L machines from the same brand and has a number of similar characteristics to other competitor 24L budget air compressors on offer. However, the 24L Orazio machine also has a couple of standout features that differentiate it from its competitors and which can make it particularly useful for the DIYer. WOW ... SO impressed. It fills in about the same time my old 25 ltr took it is SO quiet (for a compressor). I'd say something similar to a modern washing machine.Designed for DIY and light applications the HY5508 silenced oil-free air compressor is ideal for air brushing, blowing away dirt and dust, nailing, inflating tyres & inflatables or operating air tools. Ultra Lightweight Compressor

As for the standout positive features of the 24L Orazio air compressor compared to its competitors, these are, firstly, that it is one of the few oil-free air compressors of its size readily available to the UK consumer. Oil-free air compressors have a number of advantages over oil-dependent ones including being cheaper and requiring less maintenance. One disadvantage of oil-free air compressors is that they are usually louder than their oil-bearing equivalents. However, as alluded to earlier, this is not the case for the 24L Orazio air compressor and in fact represents its second standout feature, which is the ability to easily hold a normal conversation over the sound emanating from it. Keep in mind though that the ‘hissing’ sound at motor cutout, typical of most air compressors, is still just as noisy on the Orazio machine as it is on other machines but fortunately very brief in duration.Very impressed with my new air compressor, much better than my last one from another brand. Would recommend.
