Review: Review of 450C 12 volt IG series - This is my second Viair 12 volt pump I have purchased. The first was a smaller capacity pump and it is still running very well. These pumps are very well built. They are quiet when compared to other pumps with the same capacity. I am using this pump to charge a ten gallon compressed air tank for demonstrations of an aerosol device at medical conventions. It is small, quiet, and will operate off an AC to DC 12 volt converter that puts out about 20 amps. This beats paying the $650.00 three day charge the exhibit halls hit you up with for a compressed hose at your booth! My only other wishes are that it had a 12 volt fuse and an off and on switch. Neither of these things were a big deal for me to add. I highly recommend this pump. It is good to see high quality workmanship in this day and age. Review: Awesome! - I'm not for certain if this is Viair's biggest compressor but it is impressive! It fills tires quickly and has a 100% Duty Cycle. I was thinking I'd need a bigger compressor for a project I had due to a previous Viair application I did; this one was overkill! I love it! ## Features - Part number: 45050 - Fit type: Universal - Package Weight: 5.489 kilograms - Oem equivalent part number: 45050 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002OH319O | | Additional Features | Heavy Duty | | Air Flow Capacity | 1.8 cfm | | Best Sellers Rank | #442,136 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #955 in Wheel & Tire Air Compressors & Inflators | | Brand | VIAIR | | Brand Name | VIAIR | | Capacity | 5 gallons | | Color | Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 18 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00818114004551 | | Included Components | 12V I.G Air Compressor with 1/4" NPT check valve, stainless steel braided hose & thermal oveload protector | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 11.25"L x 4"W x 6.75"H | | Item Type Name | Industrial Air Compressor | | Item Weight | 10.4 pounds | | Manufacturer | Viair Corporation | | Manufacturer Part Number | 45050 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 30 Days | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Maximum Current | 23 A | | Maximum Horsepower | 0.37 hp | | Maximum Pressure | 150 psi | | Model Name | 450c Industrial Grade | | Model Number | 45050 | | Noise | 69 db | | Noise Level | 69 db | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Interchange Info | 45050 | | Power Source | 12 volt DC | | Recommended Uses For Product | Air Brushing, Blow Cleaning, Drilling, Nailing, Tire Inflation | | Special Feature | Heavy Duty | | Style | Heavy-Duty, Portable, 12-Volt | | Tank Volume | 5 gallons | | UPC | 818114004551 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 12 volts_of_direct_current | ## Product Details - **Brand:** VIAIR - **Voltage:** 12 Volts (DC) - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Air Brushing, Blow Cleaning, Drilling, Nailing, Tire Inflation - **Power Source:** 12 volt DC - **Noise Level:** 69 Decibels ## Images ![Industrial Grade (ig) 450 Series heavy duty air compressor, 12-volt, 150 psi, 100% duty cycle, 45050 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71+D-Kl7GhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review of 450C 12 volt IG series *by N***T on March 30, 2010* This is my second Viair 12 volt pump I have purchased.
