The aftercooler-equipped version is the I718HC1-S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C1 pump runs at 895 RPM and delivers 32.4 CFM free air at 0 PSI, 24.8 CFM at 175 PSI. At 655 lbs and a 64x20x48 inch footprint, this is the lighter of the two 80-gallon horizontal options in the 7.5 HP single-phase series. The horizontal tank configuration suits shops where a lower-profile unit fits better than a vertical tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIndustrial Cast Iron Pump — C1 Configuration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll cast iron construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cylinder, head, crankcase — no aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePump speed:\u003c\/strong\u003e 895 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered roller bearings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Both ends of crankshaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrecision steel connecting rods:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automotive-type insert bearings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisc and spring valves:\u003c\/strong\u003e Serviceable and reliable under industrial load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-ring pistons:\u003c\/strong\u003e Better sealing, less oil carryover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentrifugal unloader:\u003c\/strong\u003e Loadless start every cycle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e I718HC1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorsepower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-phase (1-phase)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horizontal (HC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePump RPM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 895\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree air delivery (CFM @ 0 PSI):\u003c\/strong\u003e 32.4 CFM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery at working pressure (CFM @ 175 PSI):\u003c\/strong\u003e 24.8 CFM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum working pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 175 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (L x W x H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 64 x 20 x 48 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 655 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAftercooler:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not included (see I718HC1-S for aftercooler version)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eI718HC1 vs. I718HC1-S\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe I718HC1 and I718HC1-S are the same compressor. The -S suffix on the I718HC1-S indicates a factory-mounted beltguard aftercooler (#BGAC1M, 35 CFM rated). If you are doing spray painting or moisture-sensitive work, add the aftercooler — either factory-mounted (-S) or as a field-installed option. For general tire service, impact wrenches, and air ratchets where moisture is less critical, the base I718HC1 is appropriate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen Does a Shop Need This vs. Stepping Up or Down?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose the I718HC1 if:\u003c\/strong\u003e You need single-phase power, horizontal tank orientation, want to source your own aftercooler, and your demand fits within 24.8 CFM at 175 PSI.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep up to I718HC2-S if:\u003c\/strong\u003e You want more CFM (28.1 at 175 PSI) from a slower, quieter C2 pump, or if noise is a factor in your shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep up to 120-gallon if:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tank recovery time between cycles is causing production slowdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy From Air Compressor Factory Direct?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe carry the complete Castair industrial series.
