Every unit is 100% factory tested at full pressure, ensuring it arrives ready to deliver reliable performance from day one.

An oil level sight glass makes routine maintenance checks quick and easy, helping you prevent costly downtime. The start-stop pressure switch control automatically manages compressor operation, while ASME code safety valves provide essential overpressure protection.
The 1/2" outlet provides ample flow capacity for your air distribution system, and the vertical design saves valuable floor space in your shop. With shipping dimensions of 36" L x 24" D x 73" H and a weight of 382 lbs, the 4918VN delivers industrial capability in a manageable footprint.
