Homemade silent air compressor

[Dimitris Polychronis]

Hey hemmjo,

Thank you for the info, they are very helpful! As I wrote above, I have a 6th compressor under construction for-quite some time now; I was worried about longevity too, so I decided to use oil filters for the incoming air since the compressor will be inside my shop (the level of moistrure and dust in the shop is low)

Here is the oil filter


and these are the motors

Embraco aspera NJ6226Z 220V 1Hp


L’UNITE CAJ4517Z 220V 1.5Hp

Now as for protecting the tank from moisture carried from the pressurized air, I have thought to put a carbon filter between the motors outlet and the tank. Anyway these are some thoughts for now, will see how will goes when I'll start working the project again. Thanks again for the ideas!

All the best
Dimitris
