I am trying to compare Ingersol Rand w/the porter cable. IE...will one support a D.A. and a spray gun at the same time better than the other. Price comparison, Noise level, etc...
Answer
The most important factor in determining if a compressor will work for a particular piece of equipment is CFM. Do you know what the CFM requirements are for the D.A. and spray gun? Once you know that, you can look at the CFM that the compressor puts out and match that to your needs. As far as noise level goes, unfortunatly the compressor manufacturers don't publish the decibel levels for their compressors, so there is no way to compare the noise levels of compressors.
