Saylor-Beall 3 HP Pressure-Lubricated 730 Series
The Saylor-Beall 730 Series is a heavy-duty 3 HP industrial compressor built for shops that need a significant step up in air volume. It is powered by the Model 705 pump, a large-bore, two-stage cast iron unit that delivers higher CFM at lower speeds than standard consumer models.
Lubrication Configurations
- Splash-Lubricated (Standard 730): The reliable industry standard. It uses a simple dipper-style system to lubricate internal parts and is the most cost-effective choice for standard shop applications.
- Pressure-Lubricated (PL-730): Designed for extreme duty cycles. It features a positive displacement oil pump and a spin-on oil filter that forces clean oil directly to the crankshaft and rod bearings, providing maximum protection for multi-shift operations.
Tank & Setup Options
The 730 series is available in both Horizontal and Vertical tank orientations to suit your floor plan.
- 60-Gallon: A compact option for space-saving vertical installations.
- 80-Gallon: The preferred industrial size for better thermal management and reduced motor cycling.
The Performance Package
For maximum reliability and air quality, the 730 can be equipped with the Performance Package, which includes:
- Air-Cooled Aftercooler: Reduces discharge air temperature to drop moisture out of the lines.
- Automatic Tank Drain: Automatically removes moisture from the receiver tank to prevent rust and water carryover.
- Low Oil Level Switch: Protects your investment by shutting the motor down if the oil level drops below a safe limit.
