ARO 1/2" diaphragm pump

hey guys...

ive ordered this aro 1/2" diaphragm pump and it looks like a little beauty...

just a question...

for those who have used similar pumps...perhaps the little yamada 5....

what air compressor would you recommend????

what size tank??
how many HP???
there are heaps on ebay just having trouble in my selection...

i dont want to go a big mamma and have it be overkill...

something to keep in mind...im ordering a yamada 5 as back up as well...

a compressor that works for both of these would be great...

thanks guys

When I was running a 1/2" air pump,...I used a 5.5 hp. Ingersoll Rand wheelbarrow compressor. Put out 12 cfm. I worked pretty well, but it couldv'e been more cfm. Cfm is what you're after,..pressure and volume are second place to cfm.

I went back to roller pumps.
