Custom Engineered Air Compressor for New European Style Vans

With the current trend in the North American commercial van market, accessory manufacturers have been quickly adjusting to the increasing demand. Recognizing that a reliable and safe air compressor was not available for the European style vans, VMAC (Vehicle Mounted Air Compressors) developed an entirely new rotary screw air compressor and components ideally suited these applications.

“The van market is vastly different than the traditional service truck one,” says Dan Hutchinson, VMAC vice president of sales and marketing. “Customers are looking for easy to install accessories that allow them to do many of the same jobs of larger, more custom built service trucks, while taking advantage of the vans’ capabilities.”

The new UNDERHOOD LITE air compressor system provides the same reliable, compact power the UNDERHOOD70 is known for. Weighing in at 28 kg, the system minimally impacts the vans’ payload and has a very small footprint in the van itself. Providing 850 l/min (30 CFM) and up to 10.3 bar (150 psi), the LITE easily handles most air powered needs the service van market requires.

All of VMAC’s UNDERHOOD Air Compressor solutions are custom engineered for each engine/chassis combination. VMAC is launching the UNDERHOOD LITE with installation kits for the 3.6 l Ram^® ProMaster^®, the 3.7 l Ford^® Transit^® and the 3.0 l Mercedes-Benz^® Sprinter^®.
