The DXCMV5048055 is a DEWALT 80-gallon stationary 2-stage reciprocating splash-lube air compressor delivering 17.9 CFM at 175 max PSI. The industrial-duty cast iron pump features a patented piston design, directional cooling fins, and a flywheel design that keeps operating temperatures lower. Thermal overload protection on the electric motor and ASME certification on the tank make this a reliable centerpiece for high-demand shop and industrial use.
How much CFM does the DXCMV5048055 produce?
The DXCMV5048055 produces 17.9 CFM at 175 PSI, which is enough to operate more than one air tool or device simultaneously in a busy shop environment.
What type of lubrication system does the DXCMV5048055 use?
The DXCMV5048055 uses a splash-lube system in its 2-stage reciprocating pump. Splash lubrication distributes oil by the rotation of a dipper arm that splashes it onto cylinder walls and bearings, reducing wear on high-use components.
What cooling features does the DXCMV5048055 pump have?
The pump incorporates a patented piston design, patented asymmetrical deep-groove directional cooling fins, and a patented cast iron flywheel design that together lower pump operating temperatures for extended service life.
Is the motor on the DXCMV5048055 protected against overheating?
Yes. The DXCMV5048055 motor includes thermal overload protection that automatically shuts the motor down if it reaches unsafe temperatures, preventing burnout during sustained operation.
What electrical service does the DXCMV5048055 require?
The DXCMV5048055 is a large stationary compressor requiring a dedicated circuit. Check the nameplate on the unit for exact voltage and amperage requirements before installation. Most units in this class require 240V service.
