Piston compressor 7.5kw 300l

Product Overview: Hurricane 7.5kW 300L Piston Air Compressor

For South African workshops demanding uncompromised performance, the Hurricane 7.5kW 300L Piston Compressor is your robust and reliable solution. This heavy-duty, belt-driven reciprocating air compressor (FHT100300) is engineered to meet the intensive air supply needs of professional automotive repair centres, panel beating workshops, and industrial applications. Designed for continuous, high-volume operation, this powerful 10HP equivalent unit ensures your pneumatic tools run efficiently, from spray guns to impact wrenches, making it an essential piece of automotive workshop equipment. With its substantial 300-litre receiver, you'll have ample stored air for critical tasks without constant motor cycling.

Key Features for Demanding Workshops

• High-Efficiency Multi-Cylinder Pump: At its core, the Hurricane 7.5kW 300L features a multi-cylinder (twin or triple cast-iron cylinder) oil-lubricated reciprocating pump. This design is paramount for achieving high thermal efficiency and ensuring an extended working lifespan, even under the most strenuous operating conditions in a busy South African workshop.
• Advanced Cooling System: Longevity in a compressor depends heavily on effective cooling. Our large-bladed aerodynamic flywheel is specifically engineered to direct a high-volume airflow over the finned cylinder heads and blocks, drastically minimising the risk of overheating during prolonged, demanding shifts. This ensures consistent performance for your panel beating and automotive repair tasks.
• Robust & Safe Air Receiver: The large-capacity horizontal air receiver is constructed to stringent European CE/PED standards, guaranteeing safety and durability. It comes complete with an easily accessible bottom condensate drain valve, simplifying maintenance and protecting your air tools from moisture.
• Automated & Protected Control: Enjoy hands-off operation thanks to the automatic pressure switch, which includes built-in motor overload protection. This vital safety feature safeguards the compressor's motor from damage due to excessive load or voltage fluctuations, ensuring reliable, safe cycling throughout its operational life.
• Optimal Air Delivery: With an impressive piston displacement of 1043 litres per minute (L/MIN) and a maximum exhaust pressure of 12 BAR, this compressor delivers the consistent and powerful airflow required for a wide array of pneumatic tools and machinery in any professional setting.
