AirSource air compressors
Category Winner
The AirSource line is actually three models of portable, tow-behind, diesel-powered air compressors. The AirSource model is 160 CFM at 100 psi powered by a 49-hp Ingersoll-Rand engine, the AirSource Plus IR model is 185 CFM at 100 psi powered by a 62-hp Ingersoll-Rand engine, and the AirSource Plus JD is 185 CFM at 100 psi powered by a 65-hp John Deere engine. All engines are Tier II compliant.
Product highlights include a virtually indestructible, corrosion resistant canopy made from an engineered composite material. The canopy opens to 45 degrees for routine maintenance and opens to an industry leading 90 degrees for unprecedented component access. The AirSource line also features a remote, spin-on separator element eliminating the need to enter the separator tank to service this vital component.
175E MonoBlock compressor
GrimmerSchmidt introduces the 175E MonoBlock compressor powered by the popular 5.7-liter Daimler Chrysler engine. Design features include electronic throttle control, timing, and fuel injection. O2 and NOX sensors determine the optimum air/fuel ratio. A catalytic converter provides clean emissions and a quiet package.
The GrimmerSchmidt 175E MonoBlock is an integral engine/compressor with inherent advantages of small package size, reduced component count, and low-cost service parts. The patented PaceAir system matches the engine rpm to the air demand providing extended engine life and greater fuel economy. The 175E provides the lowest ownership cost in an environmentally friendly two-tool air compressor.
M57 Compressor
Kaeser now offers a new diesel driven compressor package specifically designed to meet the extreme harsh conditions found in off-shore applications. The enclosure and fasteners are made from stainless steel for superior corrosion protection. Plus, it has the largest fuel tank with more cfm per brake horsepower in its class. The 45-hp M57 delivers 210 cfm at 100 psig providing 10 hours of uninterrupted operation. Safety features such as emergency shutdown valve, spark arrestor, and a sturdy, galvanized crash frame with the four point lifting system are standard too. All this adds up to a package built to last.
