Compressor for 400 AVANCE...

Dear spinlanders,

I know that this question has been made to the group in the past, but 
here it goes again...

We will be installing an AVANCE 400 in a couple of weeks. Since our 
facility has no house air, we need to get a 'rugged' air compressor 
that can go up to, according to Bruker, 120 psi (although we have 
none of the solids stuff, so 80 would be OK from my conversations 
with Bruker people). What I'm thinking of is a Gast (or equivalent) 
oil-less piston compressor and a ballast tank, plus a refrigerated 
air dryer (or equivalent).

Anyone has any suggestions as of models, powers, accessories, etc., 
etc? The contractor renovating the NMR lab will be installing it, and 
apparently they already have something planned, but I would like get 
something that won't die after the second week of operation...

Thanks in advance,

Guillermo
