Quincy 253DS80VCB23 is the QT Pro 5 HP two-stage splash-lubricated piston compressor in the 80-gallon vertical configuration on 230V three-phase service. It produces 17.2 CFM at 175 PSI from the QT-5 cast-iron pump running at roughly 945 RPM. The Pro package adds a magnetic starter and an upgraded receiver, and pump warranty extends to two years when registered with the EWK kit. The QT Pro family is the workshop-grade tier just below the QP pressure-lubricated industrial line. Construction is a one-piece aluminum head over two cast-iron cylinders, finned tube intercooler, balanced counter-weighted crankshaft, and Quincy’s stainless reed valves. Pump is rated for 50,000 hours of life. Best fit is a small commercial body shop, framing crew, or fab shop with three-phase service that runs intermittent impact tools, sanders, and small spray work. Made in the USA at Quincy’s Bay Minette, Alabama plant. Sound is approximately 78 dBA at 1 m.
