Kaeser Compressors’ King Move

Kaeser Compressors’ Mobilair M120 compressor is easy to use and hard to beat

Built tough for extreme conditions, Kaeser Compressors’ Mobilair M120 portable compressor is now available to order in Australia.

Kaeser says the machine can be used in quarrying, mining or blasting applications, able to deliver up to 11.3 cubic metres of compressed air per minute, or 400 cubic feet per minute.

It can run seamlessly on high-sulphur diesel, and continues operating in the green zone even when ambient temperatures reach above 50 degrees Celsius.

Equipped with a Tier 3 emissions Cummins engine, a certified spark arrester and an automatic engine shut-off valve, the compressor also features a new oil separator design with two spin-on cartridges, ensuring a low residual oil content for the compressed air.

Start-up is at the push of a button; the machine then runs unloaded, thereby ensuring safe cold starts in all conditions. The display indicates the end of the warm-up phase, after which the machine can be switched to load to begin generating compressed air.

The Mobilair M120 gives the operator two choices of pressure stages, one to a max. of 10.3 bar (125 psi) and the other up to 14 bar (200 psi), adjusting the maximum possible flow rate to match the pressure set at the controller thanks to its innovative pV control.

Depending on the desired application, the system can also be equipped with an aftercooler or a microfilter combination for technically oil-free compressed air.

Rather than being discharged from the machine, accumulating condensate is evaporated by the hot exhaust gases from the engine, ensuring eco-friendly operation.

The M120 is available as a construction site chassis equipped with parking brake, a road-going chassis fitted with a run-on brake and lights for towing on the public highway, or as a stationary version mounted on skids.

Integrated forklift guides and lifting eyes, which can be reached via climbing aids, are fitted as standard.
