Jacques,
I can save you considerable time and money if you want an electric driven compressor. I assembled 3 different systems from good components that have been around my shop for 2-4 years One example is a 4.2 cfm kidde compressor that not capable of pumping to 5000PSI because the 4th stage is looser than the normal .005 -.007 fit. It will pump easily to 3500PSI. I have used a 3 hp motor that is 1800RPM instead of the 3600RPM motor mounted on my standard units. The result of a slower speed is 2.5 CFM vs 4 CFM. This is a continuous duty compressor that you can run for 3-5 hours at a time. Same compressor as used on my standard units
The moisture trap came from a small Bauer compressor with a 3200PSI pressure relief valve and the filter is one of my re-packable converted hydraulic accumulators. All mounted on a very small compact frame with a normal fill whip for Scuba. All manual controls for $1300 plus shipping. If this size is something you are interested in - call me
