Product Description
The California Air Tools 8010SPC is a 1.0 HP ultra-quiet, oil-free air compressor housed inside a soundproof cabinet. Designed for indoor environments where noise is a major concern, the system operates at just 40 dB.
The compressor uses an MP100LF motor operating at 1,400 RPM to reduce noise, vibration, and wear. Its oil-free pump is designed for a minimum service life of 4,000 hours before service. The 8-gallon steel tank is internally coated with epoxy to help prevent corrosion.
The soundproof cabinet uses acoustic foam insulation to reduce noise by approximately 30% and includes two exhaust fans to help maintain a cooler operating environment. Four caster wheels allow the complete 131-pound system to be moved between locations.

What's Included
- California Air Tools 8010SPC air compressor
- 8-gallon coated steel air tank
- Soundproof cabinet
- Two cabinet exhaust fans
- Four swivel caster wheels
- Air filter
The CAT page also lists accessory kits, air hose, moisture/oil separator, and a refrigerated air dryer as options/add-ons, so these should not be listed as included equipment.
Applications
The 8010SPC is designed for indoor applications where operating noise is a significant concern, including:
- Offices
- Shops
- Stores
- Warehouses
- Home workshops
- Indoor workspaces
- Applications requiring quieter compressed air equipment
- General pneumatic applications
Its 40 dB operating level and soundproof cabinet make it particularly suited to environments where a conventional compressor would create excessive noise.
Maintenance
The 8010SPC uses an oil-free pump, eliminating the need for routine pump oil changes.
The manufacturer specifies replacing the 1 HP air filter every two years, or annually if the compressor is exposed to dirty or dusty conditions. The listed replacement filter part number is 90227.
The soundproof cabinet's exhaust fans should also remain unobstructed to maintain proper airflow and cooling around the compressor.
