Design Features
Mounting
The compact shape and size of the XK compressor make it ideal for mounting inside the chassis on most vehicles to enable low cost direct PTO driving, meaning a simpler installation process. A through shaft allows clockwise or anticlockwise input drive rotation with mounting points on either side of the truck mounted compressor to provide further flexibility.
Torque Coupling
Unique Torque limiting coupling that fits directly onto the XK drive shaft is specially designed to protect the gearbox PTO from overloading and causing any potential damage.
Drive Options
The XK series can be driven hydraulically, via prop shaft, or coupled to electric motor. A wide range of installation options gives you the flexibility to run your vehicle exactly as you need it.
Filters
Every machine is supplied with a commissioning filter, which is removed after a vigorous test procedure on the vehicle.
Ancillary Options
The XK12/18 are supplied with a 2.5 & 2.2 bar relief valve, respectively, to protect the machines from over pressurization. Other ancillaries include air inlet filter, check valve and flange pack, as well as multiple silencer options.
Customer Benefits
Proven Low Outlet Temperature Throughout Speed Range of Machine
The XK has class leading low discharge outlet temperatures making it the perfect machine for discharging products that are sensitive to high temperatures.
Low Maintenance
A simple service, carried out every 12 months allows for your vehicle downtime to be kept to a minimum, ensuring that your machines can be operating at 100% efficiency, year round.
Compact Size & Lightweight
Our small size and light build results in greater operational efficiency through weight saving and a simplified drive method, meaning the XK is suitable for various chassis configurations.
