Compressor size

I'm buying a used 6 station Diamondback 2007 Rseries   First auto.

Compressor size and the average cost?

They want to sell me theirs but we haven't discuss price on it yet.

You can run the press on a 5HP compressor. You will need a refrigerated air chiller as well. Look up compressors and chillers on line at www.grainger.com for comparative pricing.

Northern Tool is a good price reference too.

A "fully packaged" compressor comes with an after-cooler, automatic drain and a low oil switch.
If you need to strip a lot of humidity... an aftercooler (on the compressor) assists your refrigerated air dryer.
"Dry air" and press reliability are directly related.

A single stage air compressor will not do the job (for any great length of time).
