MPC-60C

This is the 1/4 HP compressor and air filter (MPC-60C) combined with a 2 way heavy duty manifold.

The manifold includes an oil filled pressure gauge to reduce indicator vibration. This gives a more accurate reading of the actual psi of your system. Also attached is a pressure relief valve which opens at approximately 17 psi to prevent damage to the compressor. The gang valves are high quality brass with 3/8" barbs connectors. A short section of heat resistant hose is included so as to reduce heat to your air hose connection. All high quality components and very nice design.

This is a stand alone unit without any cabinet which is ready to install in your new or existing aeration system. The Matala Piston Compressor with air manifold is ideal as a replacement compressor for a variety of different manufacturer systems.

Features include:

      • 1/4hp; 115v; 60 Hz
      • Max amps 2.27 @115V; 226 watts
      • Max pressure 50 feet deep, 17.34 psi
      • 2 way 3/8" manifold valve.
      • Oil filled pressure gauge
      • Pressure relief valve
      • Heat protection hose.
      • OIl-less non lube piston and cylinder.
      • Cylinder hard coated for wear resistance.
      • Head design allows for easy replacement of piston seal.
      • Permanently lubricated bearings.
      • Balanced for smooth low vibration operation.
      • Safety protected.

To help prevent overheating, please follow these recommendations:

    • only use in water less than 50 feet deep
    • Use 3/8" air hose length up to 300 ft long; 5/8" hose up to 600 ft long; 1" hose up to 1000 ft long.
    • use 2 way manifold and 2 hoses
    • compressors require a cooling fan and must have sufficient room for proper heat dissipation.  

MPC-120C

This is the 1/2 HP compressor and air filter (MPC-120C) combined with a 3 way heavy duty manifold.

The manifold includes an oil filled pressure gauge to reduce indicator vibration. This gives a more accurate reading of the actual psi of your system. Also attached is a pressure relief valve which opens at approximately 17 psi to prevent damage to the compressor. The gang valves are high quality brass with 3/8" barbs connectors. A short section of heat resistant hose is included so as to reduce heat to your air hose connection. All high quality components and very nice design.
