Product Description
The California Air Tools 8010ALFC is an ultra-quiet, oil-free 1.0 HP air compressor designed for industrial and contractor applications where low noise, portability, and extended operating life are important.
The compressor features a lightweight, rust-free 8-gallon aluminum air tank and operates at only 60 dB. Its MP100LF motor runs at 1,400 RPM to reduce noise and wear, while the oil-free dual-piston pump is engineered for high performance and durability. The pump is tested for a minimum life of 4,000 hours, with an average life of more than 6,000 hours.
The 8010ALFC produces 4.00 CFM at 40 PSI and 3.00 CFM at 90 PSI, with a maximum pressure of 120 PSI. A wheel kit makes the approximately 40-pound compressor easier to transport.

Maintenance
The 8010ALFC uses an oil-free pump system, reducing maintenance requirements associated with oil-lubricated compressors.
The manufacturer recommends replacing the 1 HP air filter every 2 years, or annually when the compressor is used in a dirty or dusty environment.
Note: The CAT page lists the automatic drain valve as an add-on option, not as standard equipment. It should therefore not be included in the product's “What's Included” section.
