Mark Allen says

FIAC air compressors are supplied as belt-driven piston machines (commonly 2–10hp) and as rotary screw units for higher duty applications. Each machine is individually tested and conforms to current EC regulations. I specify and install these in workshops and bodyshops to feed pneumatic tools, spray booths, tyre service and general reticulation systems where steady, dry air is required. A correct installation needs attention to siting, ventilation, receiver sizing and condensate drainage, and compatibility with existing control panels and pipework. For screw machines I pay particular attention to oil management and cooling; for belt-driven units I check belt alignment and tension during commissioning.

In practice the most common issues are undersized machines for peak demand, air leaks in the pipework and moisture reaching tools when aftercoolers or drains are neglected. When sized correctly and maintained on a schedule these compressors give reliable, economical service; poor installation and neglected maintenance are the usual causes of failure.

Technical Details

Fiac compressors are available as belt‑driven piston machines (2–10hp) and as rotary‑screw Silver units for higher continuous duty in confined plantrooms. In a bodyshop they supply air for spray booths, pneumatic tools and blow‑off; select by required free air delivery, duty cycle and available footprint rather than headline horsepower. Check power supply, noise and service access. We can install, service and repair these machines and they are individually tested to conform with current EC regulations.

  • Belt‑driven piston models 2–10hp for general workshop use
  • Rotary‑screw Silver range for higher continuous delivery in limited space
  • Individually tested; conforms with current EC regulations
  • Installation, service and repair available from our engineers
