Doosan Infracore Portable Power
The 185-cfm, 100-psi compressor, better known as the P185, is the most common portable construction compressor on the market. Choice is the keyword: Owners have a choice of an Ingersoll Rand or John Deere engine and the option of either full running gear or skid-mounted for truck installation. These choices allow contractors to select the unit that works best for their service and application needs. The John Deere-powered model has been available the longest and is supported internationally by service departments with technicians trained to service the John Deere engine.

VMAC
When deck space is limited and payload is in demand, the VMAC UNDERHOOD 150 air compressor is the answer. The patented rotary-screw technology and compact size have allowed the air compressor to move from above-deck to under the hood. Mounting the air compressor under the hood of the truck lets contractors save valuable deck space, while the compact design means payload is being reserved for the tools and equipment needed on-site. Providing 150 cfm at 100% duty cycle, the UNDERHOOD 150 takes up less workspace than the 90LB jackhammers it powers, which makes the UNDERHOOD system a light and powerful system, especially in its class.
