JSG ESTATE LIQUIDATION

This is a vintage Speedaire industrial-duty air compressor, Model 3Z383B, manufactured by Dayton Electric Mfg. Co. in Chicago. The unit features a 1 HP Dayton induction motor, Model 9K322E, designed for 115V operation at 17.8 amps or 230V at 8.9 amps, 60 Hz. The compressor is characterized by its robust green-painted metal construction, indicative of its industrial application and era. It includes an attached orange power cord and a single wheel for portability, though a second wheel is missing. The overall dimensions are approximately 30 inches long, 12 inches wide, and 20 inches high. This piece represents a classic example of American-made industrial equipment, known for its durability and straightforward design, likely dating from the mid to late 20th century.

Condition is good for its age, showing honest wear consistent with industrial use. There are numerous scratches, scuffs, and areas of paint loss across the green finish, particularly on the tank and compressor head. The attached wheel is present, but the second wheel is missing, impacting its intended portability. The motor and compressor unit appear intact, though functionality has not been tested. There is some surface rust and grime, especially on the compressor head and piping. All labels are legible, providing clear model and serial numbers. This unit would be suitable for restoration or as a functional piece in a workshop after proper inspection and servicing.
