BelAire 338VLE Air Compressor – 10HP Quiet

BelAire 338VLE: 13-HP Kohler-Powered Vertical Elite Gas Compressor

The BelAire 338VLE is a professional-grade gas-driven air compressor engineered for mobile service technicians and field operators who demand high-output performance in a space-saving design. Featuring the rugged 13-HP Kohler CH395 engine, this unit is mounted on a 30-gallon vertical ASME receiver, making it the perfect fit for service trucks where floor space is at a premium. By choosing this Kohler-powered Elite system through our platform, you ensure your mobile workshop is equipped with reliable pneumatic power capable of handling heavy-duty impact tools and roadside tire service without the need for an external electrical grid.

The technical core of the 338VLE lies in its heavy-duty two-stage solid cast iron pump, which delivers an impressive 25.3 CFM at 100 PSI and 22.3 CFM at 175 PSI. As a premier solution within our professional-grade reciprocating compressor collection, the Elite (VLE) series comes factory-equipped with an electric start, an alternator, and a 12V battery heater. This 13-HP powerhouse is designed for a 100% duty cycle, featuring a centrifugal unloader for loadless starts and a heavy-duty belt guard that ensures the safety of your operators in rugged, high-vibration field environments.

“The BelAire 338VLE has been a lifesaver for our mobile heavy equipment repair business. The vertical 30-gallon tank takes up very little room on the truck bed, allowing us to carry more spare parts. The Kohler engine is incredibly easy to maintain and the 22.3 CFM handles our 1-inch impacts for tractor-trailer service with ease. It’s the most space-efficient power upgrade we’ve ever made.”

Advanced Durability & Lifecycle Engineering

The BelAire 338VLE is engineered to withstand the vibrations and environmental stresses of mobile service by utilizing solid cast-iron cylinders and heads. The two-stage compression process significantly lowers internal discharge temperatures, which drastically reduces moisture-driven corrosion within the tank—a critical factor for tools operating in varying outdoor climates. By integrating the centrifugal unloader, BelAire prevents premature engine fatigue by ensuring the Kohler motor reaches full RPM before the pump engages under load. This strategic focus on structural and mechanical integrity ensures a long-term operational lifecycle for your field service infrastructure.

Strategic Industry Use Cases

• Mobile Heavy Equipment Repair and field service trucks.
• Roadside Tire Service and Assistance vehicles.
• Remote Construction Sites lacking electrical infrastructure.
• Agricultural Farm and Ranch Maintenance for large machinery.
• Oil and Gas Field Support requiring portable high-pressure air.
