A Clear Class Leader |  |
The "Mobilair 50" portable compressor from Kaeser Kompressoren is a machine of many strengths: Delivering enough compressed air power for three breakers, or one ‘heavy duty’ tool, this 5 m³ class compressor is exceptionally lightweight and combines outstanding flexibility with environmentally-friendly operation. Moreover, it uses trusted technology to ensure unrivalled dependability and features a highly durable, double-skinned polyethylene sound enclosure to provide maximum protection from even the toughest of conditions. One of the first things that strikes you when looking at the "Mobilair 50" is its sleek design: Ensuring long-term value retention, the new corrosion- and scratch-resistant polyethylene enclosure, which features integrated wheelhouses, creates the unit’s dynamic look and discretely hides what lies beneath: impressive performance, energy efficiency and user- / environmentally-friendly operation. With a free air delivery of 5 m³/min at 7 bar, the “Mobilair 50” is powered by a proven, water-cooled, four-cylinder Kubota-turbo-diesel engine, which directly drives the airend. Direct drive eliminates the transmission losses associated with other systems, consequently providing more air for less fuel. Service life and efficiency are enhanced through low motor and airend speed, which also helps keep noise emissions to an absolute minimum. In fact the "Mobilair 50" is one of the quietest models in its class, as it has a sound pressure level of 69 dB (A) as per ISO 3744 and a sound power level of ≤98 dB (A) as per 2000/14/EG. With a flow-optimised Sigma Profile airend designed to run under extrem conditions, the unit has a FAD of 5 m³/min at 7 bar and is the perfect choice for simultaneously powering up to 3 breakers and is equally suited to impact borer applications. Almost in contradiction to its exceptional performance, the "Mobilair 50" is surprisingly lightweight and has an operational weight of less than 750 kg, which makes this unit one of the most manoeuvrable compressors in its class. This aspect also has two further advantages for the European market: Firstly, new drivers do not require an additional towing licence to transport the "Mobilair 50" and, secondly, the unit can be towed without having to be equipped with an overrun brake. Fitted as standard and improving reliability still further, Kaeser’s patented "Anti-Frost Control" is particularly useful at times of the year when ambient temperatures are lower, as it protects air tools against freezing, corrosion and potential damage. All metallic body components are zinc-primed and powder coated to ensure long-term protection from the elements. Operation is made simple via a single control switch and user-friendly icons, whilst excellent component access greatly simplifies servicing and maintenance tasks. Built to Kaeser’s renowned high quality standards, this versatile compressor is designed to provide many years of dependable service. |
