Product description

Peerless are proud to announce a new range of engine-powered Rotary Screw Compressors.

We have long been involved with screw compressors and, after extensive consultation, have now designed our own engine-driven units to meet the demands of the Australian market.

Built and manufactured right here in Australia, this range is designed with reliability and quality in mind, built tough to handle harsh Australian conditions. We utilise world-class engines backed by generous three-year warranties and compliant with strict Australian emission standards. The air end is a Peerless design, specifically engineered for maximum air efficiency, low noise levels, and the highest quality standards — ideal for Australia’s environment.

Key start is standard, along with a 1 x 1/2” outlet and a stainless-steel pressure gauge, all positioned conveniently for easy access when mounted on the back of your ute or truck.

This ultimate workhorse delivers enough air to run 3/4” to 1” impact guns with ease. It offers outstanding performance for machinery blow-downs, filter cleaning, and tyre inflation. The compact skid-mounted design makes it one of Australia’s smallest rotary screw compressors available with a small engine. Protective shields help guard against damage to key components, and serviceability was a major focus — all filters are easily accessible for quick maintenance.

Remote start with emergency stop can also be fitted to meet any onsite requirements.


Optional extras available when ordering:

  • Fuel pump – lift pump

  • MDG15 Mine compliant retro box

  • Wiring loom extension (single or twin)

  • Special builds to meet specific requirements

 

Maintenance tips:

  • Check air compressor positioning: Ensure efficient airflow, especially in dusty environments. Monitor the air intake element regularly.

  • Change the oil: If it appears discoloured, change it immediately. Oil is the lifeblood of your compressor.

  • Replace the air intake filter: Keeping this clean ensures your pump runs efficiently and protects internal components.

  • Inspect V-belts: Maintain correct tension and check for signs of wear.

  • Ensure proper ventilation: All compressors require good airflow to operate efficiently.

  • Monitor inline filters: Blocked or restricted filters reduce air flow and increase workload, particularly during hotter months.
