I wonder if these compressors will run continuous (ie an
hour at a time)
without issue while pulling a good vacuum?

Thanks for all the replies gents.

Compressors like that need cooling. Either, by refrigerant
flowing through, or a fan to blow on the compressor. Should
work, unless it over heats. It does have electric motor in
it, after all.

Thanks - I might stick a timer on it to let it run for a max of 5 or 10
minutes at a time just to be sure. I shouldnt be a problem as I'll be at the
bench when its running.

Just ran it for 30 minutes, its very cool, hardly any warmth noticable at
all.
