Silent air compressor

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This page looks spammy, and does not say what features in an air compressor make it silent and how. At 06:43, 29 May 2013‎ User:201.141.109.99 wrote in its talk page: "this is an entirely fabricated page by a company who produces silent air compressors which is why it reads like an advert. it needs to be removed or to have the bias removed; citations added for all the ridiculous claims and specific information on how the compressor type is made or functions as otherwise it serves no real purpose here.".

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete For one thing no machine with moving parts can ever really be totally silent, even if we can not hear it it still disturbs the air. The fact that very low noise air compressors are useful for many applications could be mentioned in Air compressor. As this article explains there are several ways that this can be done. There is no one type of "silent air compressor." Borock (talk) 17:28, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Air Compressor. The article does not claim these are actually silent, but it's a term routinely used for all sorts of relatively quiet devices. DGG ( talk ) 22:36, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
