§  Where is the silencer? The exhaust is tucked away in a smart, sleek design to ensure ease of movement during transportation from one drilling site to another.


Forward thinking portable air compressor with PACE technology:

The XAWS 550 PACE enables the customers to PICK THE PRESSURE with the PACE technology. What is PACE? Pressure Adjusted through Cognitive Electronics, the first of its kind technology in the portable air compressor segment where pressure can be set with the XC2003 digital controller in 3 simple steps.


Key features:

§  One compressor with wider pressure range from 6 to 15 bar.

§  Highly efficient screw element and PACE technology gives 8% better fuel efficiency.

§  Easy to maintain with new separator design and single side service.


Reengineered technology for higher efficiency:

The XAV216 PLUS portable air compressor with four variants in it’s class is the new technology driver in the 450 – 600 cfm range of compressors to cover a wide range of applications.


Key features:

·         Higher productivity is achieved with 5% better fuel efficiency. With an advanced screw element design engineered to the highest standards in the industry.

·         A more efficient cooling system, makes this compressor best in class for higher output in mining applications.

·         Further, it’s new sleek canopy and separator design, single side service and common drainage points ensures ease of service and higher machine running hours.


One compressor, many applications:

The XA187 PLUS portable air compressor is an upgraded version of the current XA187 model.


Key features:

·         A new highly efficient screw element which results in improved fuel consumption by 4%.

·         Efficient filtration is managed with a separate air filter for both engine & compressor and a new simple canopy design makes servicing easy.
