Product description

The Peerless Black 17000 is a great entry level belt drive air compressor, this runs super quiet and this is due to the pump only revving at a 1100RPM! 

Producing an impressive 280 litres per minute of free air delivery on a 3HP electric motor (15A plug) makes this quite the performer for a light industrial air compressor.

Like its model below, the PB14000, its unique design also comes with caster wheels on the front and pneumatic wheels on the back which makes it very easy to move from job to job. 

For a light industrial air compressor it packs a lot of punch but it also has its limitations, keep in mind for high air demands you will have to step it up to a bigger air compressor like a belt drive, be sure to check your air tools for the air flow requirements but most importantly use our "Find the right air compressor" tool located on our home page to assist in making the right decision for your air needs. 

Able to run;

  • Low pressure spray gun
  • Car tyre inflation gun
  • Stapling / fitting gun
  • Framing / grease gun
  • Chalking / riveter gun
  • Screw driver
  • 1/2" Ratchet / impact gun
  • Air duster

Important

Please note: air compressors i.e piston type, are not designed to run continuously they must cut in and out. Direct drive models should only have up to a 40-50% duty cycle. Belt Drive hobby models are up to 60-70% and full industrial belt drive models are up to 75-85%. If the compressor runs over these duty cycles it could cause failure. Important - first check voltage on each building site as low voltage will cause the motor to fail on all compressors. It must have be better than 230 volt at peak times. Extension leads will cause voltage drop, it's better to use extra air hose.

Performance of all our belt driven air compressors are to AS4637.
