Compressor for agriculture

For intermittent use (tyre inflation, blowing, greasing, air tools), a tank-mounted piston compressor is suitable: the E 75 covers most farms, and the E 110 provides more reserve. If air is used for much of the day, for example in a machinery repair workshop, the S 55 screw compressor is better suited.

Large agricultural tyres need a large volume of air: a good reserve in the air receiver avoids waiting during inflation. Follow the pressure recommended by the tyre manufacturer for the use and load, and use a tyre inflator with a pressure gauge. The E 110 piston compressor is the choice for large tyre inflation.

Yes, provided you protect it from frost and drain the air receiver every day. Condensation water that freezes can block the drain and the pipework. Keep the machine sheltered from the weather, in a ventilated place that is as dust-free as possible.

A larger air receiver provides a reserve for large tyre inflation and tools used in bursts, and lets the motor rest between cycles. The right volume depends on your tools and the number of people using them at the same time. The air receiver size calculator on our website gives you an estimate based on these factors.

It is one of the most common uses on a farm: a blow gun uses around 150 l/min, intermittently. Any tank-mounted compressor in the E series is suitable for this use. Wear safety glasses and blow filters from the inside out, following the machine manufacturer's recommendations.

Simple maintenance you can do yourself: drain the air receiver daily, check the oil level, and clean or replace the intake filter, more often in a dusty building. Follow the intervals given in the manual (in French). Carry out a full service before the season so you are not caught out at the wrong moment.
