Looks like mine, 2 or 3 hp? I have 220v 2 hp with 2 stage11 gpm pump, 3,1/2" cyclinder. Not real fast but gets it done, I do have a new 13 gal 2 stage I am going to see if the cycle time is better. Any thoughts? Jay

My guess, it would be a tad faster by ~10-15% ¿ What is your RPM 1800 0r 3600 ¿

Pump - haldex 1002408 11gpm 2 stage
Cyl - Prince A300160ABAAA03B 3" Bore, 16" stroke
Valve - Prince
Motor - 1 1/2hp, 2hp peak (compressor rated) 3600 RPM ( Kinda... LOUD...LOL)
