I like the 3 cylinder design making a 3 stage compressor. The low RPM as you said is a great benifit. I work in the natural gas industry intalling 6,000 HP compressors which were 4 stage compressor starting with a 36" diameter compression piston on the first stage down to a 12" disameter piston. The engines ran at a max RPM of 800. They ran 24/7. Also trubine engines were use that ran at very high speed. Saying all this, the low rpm and 3 separate cylinders (3 stage compressor) is a great design and should last a long time. I see Marley was supervising the video.
Using higher rpm is a known technique across different products for its ability to "cheat" and get more from a certain machine than normally desirable for longevity. This applies equally to compressors, pressure washers and especially lower end or consumer quality a/c generators. Although not applicable here but this is also why diesel driven products normally are longer lasting because they themselves usually (but not always) turn at a lower rpm typically 1/2 or around 1800rpm as a gas unit's typical 3600 rpm and this rpm reduction also increases the longevity of the driven unit (pump) as well, and that fact IS definitely applicable here.

Now that’s a BadAss compressor !!!! Good video Dana
Thanks Joe, yeah I want one of these pretty bad.
That is one beast of a compressor!
So now 5years later can you give us an update has anything had to be fixed or still just oil changes?

Spending an extra $600 will get you the auto drain/stop for this unit, which is a really nice feature to have.
Now that's what I call a compressor.
I want to buy one... Where is the best deal in the USA to order friend?
Contact Nielsen Specialty Ammo
or utah airguns!
@@2marauderman329 Thanks man! I got mine close to a year ago from a guy in California who was able to get me a deal on a new one.
Nice👍🏻
As with all electronics, you get what you pay for.
