It would be a pretty good deal on an ultra silent compressor.
Zem mostly made/makes (you guessed it) refrigerator compressors.
 
Typical cost for a similar unit new would be 500-1000 USD
Most being 500-700

If all you need though is quiet and not ultra silent, id say its a toss up. Tons of brand new quiet compressors with more output can be had for the same price.
 
i think it take a while to load the tank with that type of compressor ? is that a diy one ?
thanks a lot
 
Its probably roughly 1.3 cfm or 40lpm or so output at 40 psi. or 50-60 no load lpm.
Plenty for airbrushing.

Like i said, if you need volume more than complete silence id probably go with a new silent compressor. It is a good deal though most likely.
 
I think youll find that the actual compressor brand is either sil-air or werther. Both use ZEM compressor units
It's a real close match for a sil-air 30/6

The refrigerator type compressors fill a tank faster than you might think and they are definitely very quiet. I would say it’s plenty for airbrushing.
