EMAX Industrial Plus Gas-Powered Piston Compressors

EMAX Industrial Plus gas-powered piston compressors deliver overwhelming performance to meet the needs of the most demanding environments. Their pumps require less maintenance, service, and downtime—and all EMAX gas-powered compressors furnish the power needed at the jobsite, garage, or shop. These units have ASME-approved air receivers and custom-built engine stands that brace the platform of the tank, allow easy belt tightening, and significantly reduce vibration.

Many competitors' pumps run at double the rpm of EMAX pumps because they are much smaller and must run fast to produce enough air. EMAX Industrial Plus pumps have solid cast iron cylinders, cylinder heads, crankcases, flywheels, crankshafts, and rebuildable, forged steel connecting rods. They have large roller bearings on the crankshaft ends for stability and long bearing life. Disc intake and exhaust valves are sealed by O-rings and can be removed without disturbing the head gaskets.

When it came to engines, the obvious choice for EMAX was the Honda GX Series with electric starters. Their OHV design provides excellent torque and fuel efficiency, quiet operation, and they're easy-to-use. Built for efficient airflow, effective cooling, and durability, with a slant cylinder design for smooth running—they feature mufflers with spark arresters, hydraulic valve lifters, low oil shutdown, automatic compression releases for easy starting, key switches, and battery chargers. EMAX's Honda GX engines also have engine idle-down (when the compressor is in free-wheel mode) and, with electronic ignition, excellent cold weather starting ability.

Additional features of EMAX Industrial Plus gas-powered piston compressors include:

* 1/4 in. ball valve drain at the front of the tank for easy access
* Quality tank gauge; all safety valves and pop-offs are ASME-approved
* 3/4 in. ball valve air outlet
* Custom-built, heavy-duty 13-gauge expanded metal belt guard
* 35 percent lower operating temperatures—reduces moisture buildup and extends pump life
* Air-Stream technology provides up to 50 percent longer pump life
* Intercooler and aftercooler lines to cool the air between stages and after the 2nd stage (where applicable)
* Raised platforms pull air under the pumps
* "V" or "W" pump shapes help eliminate hotspots and provide consistent cooling
* Site glass to view oil level
* Twin belts offer better belt grip and longer belt life
* Head unloaders allow for load-less starting and help cool the pump in high-duty cycle applications
* Pre-tested before they leave the factory
* Just add a 12 V battery and battery cables and they're ready to go
