20-Gallon Horizontal Portable Compressor
This oil-lubricated air compressor delivers 2 hp output and a 5.5 cfm free air flow rate at a maximum operating pressure of 135 psi. The horizontal 20 gal tank provides a stable footprint for workshop or garage use. It runs on 120V AC or 240V AC input voltage with current ratings of 15.7 A and 7.8 A respectively. The unit weighs 148 lb and operates at 82 dBA.
Capacity and Headroom
The 20 gal tank supplies enough reserve air for intermittent tasks such as nailing, stapling and inflation. At 5.5 cfm the pump can keep pace with light-duty spray guns and impact wrenches for short cycles. Continuous high-demand tools like sanders or large spray systems will exceed the compressor's recovery capability. The 135 psi ceiling limits use with equipment requiring higher regulated pressures.
120V and 240V Dual-Voltage Operation
Dual-voltage input lets the compressor run on standard household circuits at 120V AC or on 240V AC where available. At 120V the 15.7 A draw requires a dedicated 20 A branch circuit to avoid nuisance tripping. The 240V option halves the current to 7.8 A, easing circuit loading. No other voltage or phase configurations are supported by this model.

Questions about this item
Will the 120V 15.7 A draw trip a standard 15 A garage circuit alongside my lights?
At 120 V the compressor draws 15.7 A, which exceeds a typical 15 A breaker; run it on a dedicated 20 A circuit or use the 240 V setting at 7.8 A to share the circuit safely.
How do I verify the pump is delivering the rated 5.5 cfm at 135 psi after installation?
Attach a calibrated flow gauge at the outlet, run the compressor to cut-out pressure, and confirm the gauge reads 5.5 cfm while the tank holds 135 psi.
Does the 7DW87 ship with the oil, air hose, and fittings needed to start running it?
The combo includes oil for the lubricated pump, a starter hose, and basic couplers; only a 120 V or 240 V power cord suited to your outlet must be supplied separately.
