Scheppach HC100DC Twin cylinder air compressor

• Providing compressed air for pneumatic tools in workshops and light industrial settings.
• Operating spray guns for painting or coating applications.
• Inflating tyres and other inflatable items.
• Powering small-scale production machinery requiring compressed air.
• General utility air supply for cleaning and drying tasks.

Typical receiver tank volume

Units in this class commonly feature a 100-litre air receiver tank.

Motor power

Air compressors of this type typically have a motor power around 3.0 HP.

Power supply

This class of equipment is commonly powered by a single-phase (1Ph) electrical supply.

Compressor type

Units like this often utilise a twin-cylinder, oil-lubricated pump for efficient air compression.

Typical Free Air Delivery (FAD)

For this class of compressor, FAD typically ranges from 150 to 250 litres per minute, depending on pressure.

Maximum operating pressure

Compressors of this specification commonly operate at a maximum pressure of 8 to 10 bar (116-145 PSI).

• What maintenance is typically required for a twin-cylinder air compressor?

  Regular maintenance commonly includes checking and changing the oil, draining condensation from the air receiver, and inspecting air filters. Refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific schedules.

• Can this type of compressor be used for continuous operation?

• What are the typical electrical requirements for a 3.0 HP single-phase compressor?

• Is an air receiver tank size of 100 litres sufficient for most workshop tasks?

• What is the benefit of a twin-cylinder design?

Used air compressors for lab and pharma applications are generally valued for reliability and cost savings. Buyers typically prioritize checking maintenance history, confirming pressure ratings meet specific requirements, and verifying oil-free operation where contamination control matters. Key strengths include durability when properly serviced, consistent performance across extended operational hours, and significant capital cost reduction compared to new units. Inspecting seals, checking for corrosion, and confirming recent servicing records are standard considerations when purchasing secondhand.
