About this product
The Quincy QR 240 is a new old stock (NOS) reciprocating air compressor featuring a 7.5 HP motor and an 80-gallon vertical tank. This stationary, electric-powered unit includes electric controls for convenient operation. Its design is suited for environments requiring a reliable, consistent air supply with a substantial storage capacity. The 80-gallon tank capacity makes it suitable for prolonged use without constant cycling, ensuring steady performance for various pneumatic tools and machinery.
Our take
This Quincy QR 240 compressor is an interesting find as NOS, offering a substantial 7.5 HP motor paired with an 80-gallon tank. For a stationary, electrically powered unit, that 80-gallon capacity is a real benefit, allowing for extended use without the compressor constantly kicking on, which is great for tool longevity and noise management. The inclusion of electric controls is a definite plus for ease of use. At $5,400, it's a significant investment, but for a new, unused unit with these specs, it presents a compelling option for a workshop or small industrial setting where consistent air is paramount.
