Chicago Pneumatic QRS 5.5 HPD TM Rotary Screw Air Compressor with Dryer | 5.5 HP | 18.1 CFM @ 145 PSI | 60 Gallon Tank | 208/230/460V 3 Phase

Industrial 5.5 HP Rotary Screw Air Compressor with Integrated Dryer and Tank

The Chicago Pneumatic QRS 5.5 HPD TM is a complete compressed air solution designed for automotive repair shops, woodworking businesses, fabrication operations, maintenance departments, sign shops, and light industrial applications requiring dependable compressed air and continuous-duty performance.

Delivering 18.1 CFM at 145 PSI, this 5.5 HP rotary screw air compressor combines a high-efficiency rotary screw airend, integrated refrigerated air dryer, and 60-gallon ASME air receiver tank into a compact, space-saving package. Designed for reliability and efficiency, the QRS 5.5 HPD TM provides clean, dry compressed air while minimizing installation costs and floor space requirements.

Unlike traditional reciprocating compressors, the QRS rotary screw platform is engineered for continuous-duty operation, delivering smooth, pulse-free airflow throughout the workday. The integrated refrigerated dryer removes moisture before it enters your compressed air system, helping protect pneumatic tools, paint equipment, CNC routers, plasma tables, automation systems, and production machinery from corrosion and water contamination.

The QRS 5.5 HPD TM features a tri-voltage motor that can be configured for 208V, 230V, or 460V three-phase electrical service, providing installation flexibility for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications.
