Newpylong replied to the thread The "Sugarbush Thread".The 1800 CFM Atlas Copco rentals at Black from Milton CAT are like $10K per month. Plus a fuel pod if you don't have onsite storage. The... -
Centac is a model from Ingersol Rand. It's capable of compressing air to 115psi at 4,100 cfm. The compressor in your truck is likely...

HKDs step down the air on Stage 3 and 4 to about 20cfm. Logics stay at 12 to 18 depending on the nozzle configuration. Limited air...

Newpylong replied to the thread The "Sugarbush Thread".This is the issue I was pointing out. If the Impulses are stepping down to 20 CFM already on 3/4, that is why you guys are making spooge...
