A breath of fresh air

Workers in paint booths and other areas where hazardous gas may be present need a portable source of air and the Gast range of rotary vane air compressor and vacuum pumps can provide the volume of air needed at the low pressure required for as many as eight people.

The range is available with oil-less, oil-lubricated, motor-mounted or separate drive styles and is said to provide a long, very low maintenance life. Simple and economical to install and operate, the range features a low vibration design for ultra-quiet operation.

Units offer a wide range of pulsefree airflow rates from 0.31 to 112cfm (0.53 to 190m3/h) without the need for a separate receiver tank.

Vacuum ratings range from 65 to 335mbar with pressure ratings from 5 to 25psig (0.4 to 1.7bar) and motor outputs from 1/45 to 15HP (0.02 to 11.1 kW).

Options include dual-function compressor and vacuum pumps.

Dualfrequency, multivoltage AC electric motors are available together with 12 and 24V DCrated models.

A range of recommended accessories is also available, and bespoke versions can be manufactured to order for OEM quantities.
