Custom Air Compressors

The size of your compressor can impact your operational costs. A compressor that is too large will increase your operation costs, yet if a compressor is too small, production will be impacted and you will likely experience a shorter lifespan of your equipment.

Receiver / tank sizes:

24 litre, 50 litre, 100 litre, 150 litre, 200 litre, 270 litre, 300 litre, 500 litre, 1000 litre Even smaller custom sizes are available

Electric motor sizes:

1.5kW / 2Hp, 2.2kW / 3Hp, 3kW / 4Hp, 4kW / 5.5 Hp, 5.5kW / 7.5Hp, 7.5 kW / 10 Hp, 11kW / 15Hp, 15kW / 20Hp, 22kW / 30 Hp, 30kW / 40Hp, 37 kW / 50 Hp, 45kW / 60Hp, 55kW /75 Hp, 75kW / 100 Hp, 90kW / 125Hp, 110kW / 150 Hp, 150kW / 200Hp, 185kW / 250 Hp, 250 kW / 340 Hp

FAQs

1. Can Airpower build a compressor to match my specific business needs?

Absolutely. Airpower specialises in custom-built compressors tailored to your pressure, air flow, motor type, and application requirements. From compact workshop units to large-scale industrial systems, we design to spec with expert guidance throughout.

2. What information do I need to request a custom air compressor?

To design the right unit, we’ll need to know your required air volume (L/min or CFM), pressure (Bar or psi), duty cycle (light to heavy), available power supply (single-phase, three-phase, petrol or diesel), and any space or mobility limitations. Our team will help refine these during consultation.

3. What are the benefits of a custom air compressor over a standard one?

A custom compressor is designed for your exact needs, which helps maximise efficiency, reduce running costs, and avoid performance issues. You won’t overpay for unnecessary power or struggle with an underperforming unit.

4. What size tanks and motors are available for custom builds?

Airpower offers a wide range of receiver tank sizes—from 24 to 1000 litres—and electric motors from 1.5kW (2Hp) up to 250kW (340Hp). We also offer petrol, diesel, and variable speed drive options depending on your setup.

5. Do you provide support and servicing for custom compressors?

Yes. All custom Airpower compressors come with technical support, spare parts availability, and optional servicing packages. We’re here to help long after delivery to keep your system running at peak performance.
