EMAX Industrial 7.5 HP 80-Gallon 2-Stage Single-Phase Silent Air Compressor ESS07V080Z1

The EMAX Industrial 7.5 HP 80-gallon two-stage air compressor (ESS07V080Z1) is built for auto shops, fleet bays, and serious home garages that run air tools all day and want the noise kept down. It pairs a three-cylinder, two-stage pump with a vertical 80-gallon ASME-certified tank, delivers 35 CFM at up to 175 PSI, and runs on 230V single-phase power.

What sets this unit apart is the patented Silent Air™ noise-suppression system. A side-mounted silencer with noise-reducing baffle plates and high-capacity intake filtration targets the loudest part of a compressor — the air intake — and brings operating noise to at or below normal conversational volume. Unlike a full enclosure cabinet, the silencer keeps the pump, belts, and fittings reachable for routine service.

The two-stage pump uses a splash-lubrication system: rod dippers carry oil up from the crankcase onto the cylinders, pistons, and bearings on every stroke. Power reaches the pump through a multi-belt V-belt drive built with wider B- and C-width belts instead of a single narrow belt, spreading the load across more surface area, lowering belt tension, and reducing vibration for longer belt and bearing life.

Every unit ships with a magnetic motor starter and vibration isolator pads. The WEG open-drip-proof motor, ETL-certified electrical, and ASME tank with a matching CRN registration make it ready to drop into a commercial shop, backed by a 1-year standard warranty that extends to 5 years — plus a limited lifetime pump warranty — through the EMAX SMART Oil™ maintenance program.

• Patented Silent Air™ silencer — baffle plates and high-capacity intake filtration drop operating noise to around conversational volume while keeping components serviceable.
• Three-cylinder, two-stage pump — splash-lubricated for steady oiling of cylinders, pistons, and bearings.
• Multi-belt V-belt drive — wider B- and C-width belts add grip and cut tension, vibration, and wear compared with a single narrow belt.
• WEG open-drip-proof (ODP) motor with a magnetic motor starter included.
• Vertical 80-gallon ASME tank with a stable ring base and manual drain valve, for a smaller floor footprint than a horizontal tank.
• ETL, ASME, and CRN certified for shop-ready electrical and pressure-vessel compliance.
• Vibration isolator pads included.

• EMAX Industrial 7.5 HP 80-gallon two-stage air compressor (ESS07V080Z1)
• Magnetic motor starter
• Vibration isolator pads
• Factory break-in oil (change within the first 70 hours of run time)

The EMAX 5-Year Extended Warranty Kit (SMART Oil™ and filters) is sold separately and is required to activate extended and lifetime pump warranty coverage.

EMAX backs the ESS07V080Z1 with a 1-year standard warranty covering defects in material, workmanship, and parts from the date of delivery, including one year of warranty labor through an authorized technician. Parts shipped for warranty repairs include ground freight for the first six months of the standard period.

Registering the compressor and maintaining it on the EMAX SMART Oil™ program extends coverage to a full 5-year warranty and adds a non-prorated limited lifetime warranty on the pump, for as long as you stay enrolled in the auto-ship maintenance program and follow the published oil-change schedule.

Use only EMAX-approved oil and filters to keep coverage valid. The first oil change is due within the initial 70 hours of run time, then every 1,000 hours or six months thereafter.

What size electrical circuit does it need?

The ESS07V080Z1 runs on 230V single-phase power, draws 38.9 amps at full load (1.15 service factor), and EMAX specifies a 50-amp breaker. Starting (locked-rotor) current is about 210 amps, so size the circuit and starter accordingly.

How loud is it compared with a standard compressor?

The patented Silent Air™ silencer uses baffle plates and high-capacity intake filtration to bring operating noise to at or below normal conversational volume, without an enclosure that blocks access to the pump and belts.

How much air does it deliver?

It delivers 35 CFM, and 30 CFM at its 175 PSI maximum pressure, which covers most shop air tools, impact wrenches, and intermittent spray work.

Is the pump pressure-lubricated or splash-lubricated?

This model uses a splash-lubrication system, where rod dippers carry crankcase oil onto the cylinders and bearings. EMAX covers the pump under its limited lifetime warranty when the compressor is enrolled in the SMART Oil™ maintenance program.

What does the warranty cover?

Coverage starts at one year on parts and labor from the date of delivery. Registering and maintaining the unit on the EMAX SMART Oil™ program extends it to five years and adds a non-prorated limited lifetime warranty on the pump.

This compressor ships crated on a pallet by freight and weighs about 899 lb crated. Contact MGS at sales@mygaragesupplies.com or 307-381-1810 to schedule delivery and confirm offloading requirements.
