This is the base configuration of the I713 horizontal series — the motor starter is field-installed separately, which gives your electrician full control over the starter specification and panel location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe horizontal tank suits shops where ceiling clearance is limited or where a lower-profile unit integrates better into the shop layout. Like all Castair industrial series compressors, this unit is built around an all cast iron pump running at slow RPM — the design philosophy that separates industrial-grade equipment from the high-speed consumer units that wear out in a few years of shop service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Compressor Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShops with an electrician handling the motor starter installation separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallations where the starter panel needs to be remote from the compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuyers who want industrial cast iron pump quality at the base price point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShops with horizontal layout requirements or limited ceiling height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIndustrial Cast Iron Pump Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll cast iron construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cylinder, head, and crankcase — cast iron throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow pump RPM:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low RPM operation for quiet running and extended pump life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered roller bearings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Both ends of crankshaft for superior load support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision steel connecting rods:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automotive-type rod insert bearings at crankshaft, bearings at wrist pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc and spring valves:\u003c\/strong\u003e More serviceable and reliable than reed valves under industrial duty cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-ring pistons:\u003c\/strong\u003e Better sealing and reduced oil carryover compared to 2-ring designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentrifugal unloader:\u003c\/strong\u003e Loadless start every cycle — protects motor and pump at startup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTank, Motor, and Controls\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horizontal ASME-rated tank with channel base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowder-coated finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Corrosion-resistant powder coat on tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7 HP single-phase, 1725 RPM industrial motor, 15% service factor or higher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230V single-phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor starter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not included — field-installed separately (see I713HC1-S for factory starter version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eASME safety valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt guard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal, totally enclosed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eI713HC1 vs. I713HC1-S: Which Do You Need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe only difference between these two models is the motor starter:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eI713HC1 (this unit):\u003c\/strong\u003e No factory starter — you source and install the starter separately.
