The LC-5/8 Rotary Screw Diesel Air Compressor brings engine power and compressed air generation together in a compact, self-contained unit. Rated at 5 m³/min and 8 bar, it supplies approximately 177 CFM at 116 PSI for compatible construction tools, blasting equipment, and maintenance machinery.

A Chinese-made diesel engine drives the rotary screw compressor, allowing equipment to operate at outdoor locations without an electrical connection. The assembly rests on support feet and is designed to work from a designated position, with hoses distributing air to the connected equipment.

Its open-frame construction gives technicians a clear view of the engine, pipework, filters, and cooling assembly. This arrangement makes routine checks and service access straightforward. Measuring 1700 × 1120 × 1600 mm with a net weight of 505 kg, the LC-5/8 offers a defined package for buyers planning transport, installation space, and equipment integration.

The compressor can be matched to individual pneumatic machines or several smaller tools, provided their combined air demand and required operating pressure remain within its capacity.

1. Concrete Surface Preparation
Supplies compatible pneumatic chipping and scabbling tools for removing loose material, preparing repair surfaces, and carrying out localized concrete work.
2. Component Blasting and Repainting
Provides compressed air for suitably sized abrasive blasting equipment used on metal parts, fabricated assemblies, and machinery surfaces before repainting. Nozzle selection and air treatment should match the process requirements.
3. Pneumatic Rock Drilling
Serves compatible air-powered rock drills for excavation and civil engineering tasks where the specified air consumption falls within the compressor’s available output.
4. Refractory Patching
Supports selected refractory gunning machines for localized lining repairs in furnaces and kilns, with the compressor positioned in a suitable outdoor operating area.
5. Small Shotcrete Projects
Can supply selected dry-mix shotcrete machines for concrete repair and localized support work. The machine’s air demand, delivery hose length, and conveying conditions determine suitability.
6. Outdoor Mechanical Maintenance
Operates compatible pneumatic impact wrenches, grinders, and other air tools used to maintain construction equipment away from workshop utilities.
When supplying several tools, calculate simultaneous air demand and allow for pressure losses through hoses, fittings, and air treatment equipment.

1. Engine-Driven Air Generation: The onboard diesel engine supplies compressor power independently of the electrical grid, making the unit useful for outdoor construction and field maintenance.
2. Rotary Screw Compressor Configuration: Provides a compressed air source for compatible pneumatic equipment, with a specified output of 5 m³/min at 8 bar.
3. Compact Equipment Package: Groups the engine, compressor, and cooling components into one assembly, helping buyers allocate space within a site equipment area.
4. Open Access for Daily Checks: Visible hoses, connections, and engine components help operators inspect the equipment before starting work.
5. Serviceable Filter Arrangement: Accessible filter components simplify routine replacement and maintenance preparation.
6. Support-Foot Installation: The wheel-free configuration supports operation from a fixed working position on a firm, level surface.
7. Accessible Cooling Surfaces: The cooling assembly can be reached for inspection and cleaning, helping maintain clear airflow paths.
8. Flexible Tool Matching: Can supply different compatible tools as work tasks change, subject to their airflow, pressure, and air-quality requirements.
