Quiet compressors from RP-TOOLS: easy on the ears and the environment

Reciprocating compressors are necessary for daily work in many industries. Unfortunately, they can become a nuisance especially here. In some areas of application, their operating noise level is simply not acceptable. It does not matter whether they are running in airbrush areas, in workshops, test centres, your own private garage or at the dentist: the noise of a piston compressor is often a major disturbance factor, which can also have an influence on the quality of the work. The solution to the problem here is called whisper compressors! These are, as the name suggests, compressors with particularly quiet operation.

Although a quiet compressor (or silent compressor, as it is also called in new German) is somewhat more expensive to buy than a "normal" piston compressor, it can convince with its particularly quiet and smooth running. Depending on the model and the corresponding decibel number, the volume is then comparable to a normal conversation or even a whisper.

Up to what noise level does a quiet compressor operate?

Quiet is not always the same as quiet. Noise can be classified differently depending on the familiar working environment. A scale is therefore needed to make the particularly quiet compressors comparable. Anyone who blindly relies on specifications such as "whisper compressor" or "quiet compressor" can quickly be disappointed. Although certain sound pressure levels are defined for these terms, they are not legally prescribed. In the online shop of RP-TOOLS, however, you will only find quiet compressors that are below the maximum volume of 78 dB.

To support your decision, the following guide values show you when a workshop compressor is quiet, loud or whisper quiet. Please note that the figures refer to large workshop compressors. Small compressors for home use are quieter from the outset due to their significantly smaller size and performance, and are therefore subject to a different assessment scale. The values given here are for guidance only and tell you whether a piston compressor really deserves the designation "quiet":

  • 30 - 55 dB: very quiet or whisper quiet compressor
  • 56 - 78 dB: quiet compressor
  • 79 - 108 dB: loud industrial or workshop compressor

As mentioned above, your powerful compressor should therefore not exceed a maximum limit of 78 dB in order to save you from excessive noise. In the following overview, we will also show you the different noise levels again using concrete practical examples:

  • 0 - 20 dB: Snowfall
  • 15 - 40 dB: light wind
  • 35 - 45 dB: Fridge
  • 39 - 53 dB: Whispering tone
  • 50 - 74 dB: Room volume
  • 71 - 82 dB: Mountain river
  • 82 - 89 dB: Lawnmower
  • 88 - 99 dB: Delivery van
  • 98 - 120 dB: Discotheque
  • up to 122 dB: MP3 player
  • 140 dBs: Pain threshold - danger of hearing loss

When is a silent compressor worthwhile?

The purchase of a silent compressor is always worthwhile when noise and excessive noise at the workplace are to be avoided. Whisper compressors are often found in paint shops, airbrushes or dental laboratories. But applications in many other industries are also quite common. Among the many advantages of a quiet compressor are

  • the smooth and quiet running,
  • the pleasant working environment,
  • and the possibility of night operation.

The only negative aspect of a silent compressor is its relatively expensive initial cost. But these are quickly outweighed by the many advantages. Nevertheless, the online assortment of RP-TOOLS offers you silent compressors at relatively low prices!
