GENERATORS, COMPRESSORS, PUMPS
A world first for Kaeser, these
compressors meet the requirements of
the Australian Trailer design rules that
state any trailer with a mass over 2000kg
must have a braking system activated
independently to the trailer.
This requirement is unique to Australia.
In Europe, for example, an overrun
braking system is the accepted standard.
As a result portable compressors
currently imported into the Australian
market place will need to be fitted with
overrun brakes.
According to Kaeser, users wishing to
transport these mobile compressors will
have to remove the wheels and mount
them onto a plant trailer.
The electric drum brakes come with a
safety break-away system. This ensures
if the tow vehicle became detached
from the compressor, the brakes on the
compressor would lock.
Portable compressors with built-in electric brakes launched
The Mobilair M 123 and M 135 series portable compressors from Kaeser are now available
with built-in electric brakes.
Activation of the electric
brakes is via a controller
mounted inside the towing
vehicle. There are a number
of compatible controller
options available which can
be purchased from all good
motor vehicle parts retailers.
Every Mobilair portable
compressor features a Kaeser
rotary screw compressor
block equipped with flow
optimised Sigma Profile
rotors designed to ensure
maximum energy efficiency.
The electric brakes are an
option on the Mobilair
M 123 and M 135 portable
compressor models. The M 123 series is
available in four pressure stages between
8.6 bar and 14 bar, free air delivery 8.1
to 11.4m
3
/min, and the M 135 series is
available in four pressure stages between
10 and 14 bar, free air delivery 10.5 to
13m3/min.

The Honda GX series engines fitted on
approved Aussie Pump products are now
being covered with a four year warranty.
“This is a victory for customers and an
indication of Honda’s confidence in both
Aussie Pumps and their own Honda
engines,”Aussie Pumps’ Operations
Manager, John Hales said.
“We’ve worked hard to develop industrial
high pressure cleaners and drain cleaning
jetters that lead their field for design,
quality and reliability,” he added.
The company standardised on Honda
petrol engines for its locally manufactured
pressure cleaners many years ago. It has
not wavered in its policy of using only
genuine Honda engines, John said.
“Honda Australia really understands what
OEM’s like us want in an engine supplier.
They work overtime to produce the
right products for our applications and
match us for innovation, initiative and
imagination,” he said.
Honda works with Aussie Pumps
to ensure products are matched for
maximum performance and longevity.
Honda upgrades Aussie’s engine warranty to four years
Australian Pump, a ‘Honda Global Partner’, has announced an extra year’s engine
warranty on Honda approved Aussie products.
Customers benefit
from the huge national
and international
aftermarket service
support programs,
John said.
“We know we can
send Honda engine
powered products to
almost any corner of
the globe and they’ll
be taken care of in
a professional and
reasonable way.”
Australian Pump is
one of the biggest
Honda engine users in
the country.
“Each model has been carefully engine
match tested to ensure the engine is not
overloaded, meets vibration criteria and
achieves the target performance,” John
said.
“The new four year warranty is clear
differentiation of Honda product over
‘third world knockoffs’ and grey imports.
I congratulate them on taking this step
and urge consumers to recognise not all
engines are created equal,” he said.
Australian Pump products will appear on
the market tagged with the new Honda
green and gold badge and four year
warranty logo.
