ABAC ABC5-4380V is a 5 HP two-stage splash-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 17.3 SCFM at 175 PSI on an 80-gallon vertical tank, wired for 230V single-phase. The simplex cast-iron piston design weighs 580 lbs and operates at a maximum of 175 PSI — suited for fabrication shops, automotive service bays, and contractor air where two-stage compression improves efficiency at elevated pressures. The 80-gallon vertical tank provides generous storage capacity in a reduced floor-space footprint. At $3,012 list price, the ABC5-4380V occupies the mid-tier industrial reciprocating segment. Key limitation: no duty cycle rating in catalog data, indicating intermittent rather than continuous use. Known gaps: duty cycle percentage, noise level, motor NEMA frame, and service interval specifications not present in current catalog record.
