Background

The Hitachi EC2510E is a gas-powered air compressor that was first launched in September 2004. This 8-gallon, wheeled device is equipped with a cast iron pump that delivers consistent performance. It provides 9 CFM at 100 PSI of air flow, with a startup PSI of 116 and a maximum PSI of 145.

The control panel of the Hitachi EC2510E is integrated with the base plate, which safeguards the gauge, regulator, and plumbing while making the controls easily accessible. The device features an oversized oil level sight glass for convenient oil level monitoring. The EC2510E uses a pneumatic throttle instead of a cable, which eliminates failures arising from crimping or breaking. The air compressor also includes ball valve tank drains for easy draining and a flexible braided stainless steel exhaust tube to reduce vibration and impact damage.
