What are your requirements regarding CFM and what is your use? if it is the noise you are trying to overcome then i think its more economical to do sound proofing than to fork out for a hydrovane. you could build a pretty effective box to reduce the noise using a couple of extractor fans, MDF and some studwork,be quieter than a hydrovane. Need to remember the "silent" compressors are still noisey!

Hello.
Keen to know how this problem ended, please?
I've been looking at various types of these 'silent' compressors and there seems to be a lot of vague statistics linked to products.
I'm looking to get the biggest and quietest compressor, but am limited to single phase, though can go above 13 Amps. https://www.stahlwerk-schweissgeraete.de/air-compressor-whisper-motor-st1010pro is therefore out (as 400V) but it's one of the few compressors I've seen that shows L/min output as pressure builds, which I think is key; it's the theoretical / FAD it seems.
While nothing other than speculation, from the above link I can't see any 240V 'silent' compressor having an output at pressure more than ~50 to 75% at their upper levels of these values; most 240V seemingly stop at 8 Bar, too. I've repeatedly asked several sellers in this country and abroad to send me thier table of air delivery at 1 bar, 2 bar, 3 bar, etc all the way to the max output at max presuure, but so far I've no feedback on this, which is making me very suspicious.
Without these values I won't be buying one of these 'silent' compressors as I want to use the compressor for spraying, running air tools as well as for samller air consumption purposes.
Keen to know from others, too.
btw first post!
