High Output Air Supply – Overview of Design Features
Description:
The ARB CKMP series portable air compressor is a world class recreational product
designed and built to commercial / industrial / military standards for the user who
values dependability as much as performance.
Features:
• Ultra compact design makes this the highest flowing portable compressor in its class.
• Constructed entirely of light weight, high strength engineering grade materials, including
military and aerospace standard components.
• Fully sealed components for moisture and dust resistance.
• Motor is 100% ball bearing equipped, and features a unique linear brush pre-load system
for extra long life, low heat and quiet operation throughout the life of the unit.
• Motor is thermal cut-out protected against damage caused by extreme temperature use.
• Pressure switch and 40 amp automotive relay equipped electrical system prevents run-on
when not filling, or any damage to compressor or hoses as a result of the pressure
generated from a kinked air line.
• Illuminated isolating switch is easy to see at night, and protects the user from hazardous
sparking when connecting the alligator clips to the battery terminals.
• Heavy duty Maxi-Fuse equipped power leads for professional in-line circuit protection.
• Hard-anodized cylinder bore and PTFE (Teflon) impregnated carbon fiber piston seal for
reduced friction and maximum trouble free life.
• Compressor piston is equipped with a German made high shock rated roller bearing.
• High density and high flow washable sintered bronze air filter element.
• Over-pressure safety valve equipped as a back-up protection from either pressure switch
failure, thermal over pressure generated in a hot vehicle (i.e., no need to drain pressure
when finished use.), or accidental connection to an external high pressure source.
Kit Includes:
• Fully assembled and performance tested air compressor mounted into a quality tradesman
grade hard case.
• OEM quality illuminated compressor isolating switch.
• High quality wiring loom with automotive grade alligator clamp type battery contacts, and a
pressure switch driven automotive relay control circuit.
• Splash resistant air filter with washable high-flow sintered bronze filter cartridge.
• 6 meter [20 ft] long high quality abrasion and heat resistant air hose with male to female
couplings.
• Hose couplings are specially designed corrosion resistant, one-handed (push-lock) quick
connect type to suit US industrial standard air fittings (Ref: compatible types Section 1.3).
• Inflation accessories kit including high-flow tyre filler attachment (US industrial standard)
with integral stop-valve, a Schrader valve to US industrial standard adaptor, and extra
nozzle attachments for inflating items such as sports balls, air mattresses, etc.
Optional Accessories:
• Pump-up hose extension (part #171301) – a male to female coupling equipped air hose to
reach 6m [20 ft] further. (same as the hose included with CKMP12)
