(2)The VMAC’s line of hydraulic driven air compressors (H40 & H60) is ready to produce air with your supply of hydraulic power. VMAC’s hydraulic driven air compressors are the best choice for customers looking for compact, powerful, and lightweight hydraulic deck-mount air compressors that can operate in any climate. Simply connect your pressure and return lines to the hydraulic manifold on the VMAC Hydraulic Air Compressor and you're ready to go. Of course you'll need between 9 and 12 GPM to for the H40 and between 14-21 GPM for the H60, depending on your air CFM requirements.
Once you have the hydraulic fluid running through the system, turn the compressor on with the on button or remote start/stop and the integral digital control takes care of the rest. A 12-volt solenoid will open and allow the hydraulic oil to travel into the hydraulic motor, thus starting the compressor. The motor is directly coupled to the compressor via a SAE B spline drive. Unlike other above deck compressors, there isn’t a belt or pulley system. Once the oil travels through the motor it is cooled within the integral cooler. A 12-volt fan cycles with the temperature of the compressor to keep things cool. /Asset/vmac_predatair.jpg
