BelAire 338VE Air Compressor – 10HP Vertical

BelAire 338VE Air Compressor: 13-HP Honda-Powered Space-Saving Vertical Elite

The BelAire 338VE Air Compressor is a high-output, gasoline-driven pneumatic solution specifically designed for service trucks and workshops where floor space is at a premium. By mounting the legendary 13-HP Honda GX390 engine onto a 30-gallon vertical ASME receiver, this elite vertical system delivers the same massive air volume as horizontal units but with a significantly smaller footprint. It is the premier choice for field service professionals who need a reliable independent air source capable of running heavy-duty tools like 1-inch impacts and pneumatic jacks in remote locations.

The engineering heart of the 338VE is its heavy-duty two-stage solid cast iron pump, which provides a formidable 25.3 CFM at 100 PSI. As a flagship model in our professional mobile air compressor collection, this Honda-powered vertical powerhouse comes equipped with the Elite series package. This includes a factory-installed electric start and an integrated alternator, ensuring uninterrupted pneumatic productivity. The system utilizes a centrifugal unloader for loadless starts, which protects the drivetrain and engine from mechanical stress during frequent startup cycles in the field.

Technical Engineering Specifications

• Engine Power: 13-HP Honda GX390 with Electric Start.
• Starting System: 12V Electric Start with integrated charging alternator.
• Pump Design: Two-stage solid cast iron for 100% industrial duty cycle.

“The BelAire 338VE saved us nearly 4 square feet of space on our service rig compared to our old horizontal unit. The Honda engine starts instantly with the electric start, and the 22.3 CFM output handles our 1-inch impacts and pneumatic jacks without dropping pressure. It’s the perfect combination of power and compact design for any mobile mechanic.”

Advanced Durability & Lifecycle Architecture

The BelAire 338VE is meticulously engineered to provide maximum industrial longevity by utilizing high-grade cast iron for all major pump components. Unlike consumer-grade units, this gas-powered vertical system is designed to handle the vibration and environmental rigors of mobile use through the following features:

• Solid Cast Iron Cylinders: Prevents thermal expansion fatigue and maintains compression efficiency during long operational shifts.
• Integrated Alternator: Automatically recharges the starting battery while the unit is running, ensuring the electric start is always ready.
• High-Flow Stainless Steel Valves: Designed for maximum volumetric efficiency and resistance to carbon buildup.
• Copper Discharge Tubing: Provides superior heat transfer to lower discharge air temperatures before reaching the tank.
• Vertical ASME Tank: Constructed with heavy-gauge steel and certified for safety in commercial and industrial job sites.

This strategic focus on structural integrity and thermal management ensures that your investment provides a superior operational lifecycle and a high ROI.
