Portable Air Compressor?

When you think of a portable compressor you probably think of a tool that’s small and easy to move for powering your air nailer. Sure, that’s one definition of portable — but how about a compressor the size of a mobile home that can deliver 1,200 cfm at over 350 PSI!
You’re probably not going to see this trailer parked at your normal job site — it’s used primarily in the drilling field, where higher flow removes the cuttings more efficiently and higher pressure makes drilling go faster.
The XRVS 1200 Series compressors measure 18′ long by 7-1/2′ wide by 8-1/4′ tall. Combined, the compressor and trailer weigh over 16,000lbs. A six-cylinder, 575 HP, liquid-cooled Caterpillar engine drives the oil-injected rotary screw compressor to generate the impressive free air delivery specified.
There’s no price listed for these compressors — we’re guessing that if you have to ask, you really don’t need one.

Very impressive – but our needs are met with our smaller diesel-engine-driven I-R’s for outdoor use and even smaller electric Emglos for indoor use – so I probably will not be asking Atlas Copco for a quote.
Awesome! Finally a compressor to power my pneumatic Truckzilla design! The real hitch was having enough air to power the propeller beanie!
Looks like a Zamboni!
Cool, 1200 CFM should be able to get 6 or so 90 lb. hammers going. That would be a fun sound.
If you want to talk compressors on the drill sites, why don’t you skip these namby-pamby little guys and go right for the big dogs — the 18-wheeler compressor trucks they use to do hydraulic fracs?
They chain them up and routinely around 15,000 PSI and pushing fluid downhole at 450 gallons/min or more … I can’t even imagine calculating an SCFM rating.
Perhaps its a little unfair to call them air compressors, but maybe since they are pumping liquefied CO2 with them it counts?
If guys really want a ton of cheap air flow, look into the VW air compressor kits. Something like 60CFM @ 100psi out of that tiny little flat four. You’ll need the VW flat four, and the conversion kit runs about $400. But as far as cost per CFM goes, it is pretty much the cheapest setup you’ll find.
