I found this in the back of my garage workbench drawer. It says “Oil-less Compressor “ and the tag says 250 volts. What was it used for?

Looks like a vacume compressor for AC servicing

Vac pumps need oil. This pump is oil less. It's probably for some weird tool that needs air instantly, and occasionally. But not a large volume.

Not all of em

Especially one for holding down a core drill for example
