Porter Cable Compressor C3101

Porter-Cable C3101 15 Amp 1-1/2 Horsepower 4.3 Gallon Oil-Free Side Stack Compressor

This side stack Porter Cable compressor is designed to prevent sudden drops in pressure. It provides a generous air flow via a pressure switch that starts the pump at 120 psi and stops it at 150 psi.

There’s also an ultra-efficient, high-performance 1.6 running horsepower induction motor that gets its power from a 15 Amp circuit to supply 7.7 SCFM at 40 PSI and 5.3 SCFM at 90 PSI. A solid, sturdy frame protects both the motor and compressor, and a convenient carrying handle helps ensure easy portability. It’s also a snap to work on slopes, thanks to both the oil-free design and the protective roller bar that guards against any tipping of the motor. And a clear, readable gauge helps keep you on-track.

It has two push connect hose outlets for running multiple tools simultaneously or at least without having to disconnect & reconnect if switching between two tools. Recovery time is very good and has no problem at all keeping up with a professional framing nailer.

Porter-Cable C3101 15 Amp 1-1/2 Horsepower 4.3 Gallon Oil-Free Side Stack Compressor, October 1, 2008
By Powell D. McClellan “tiger” (murfreesboro, TN)

I needed an air compressor for laying hardwood flooring. Approximately 100 psi minimum pressure. Lower pressures would not sink nails completely. This compressor does an excellent job in maintaining the minimum pressure above 100 psi. I have layed approximately 6,000 ft without any problems. One small problem is the weight and no wheels.
