Description
one of the largest and most powerful air compressors operating on a standard 15AMP plug, delivering an impressive 320 litres per minute of free air delivery (FAD).
Built for durability and performance, the P17 features a cast iron crankcase, stainless steel valves, and a slow-revving pump, making it one of the quietest compressors in its class. Unlike many competitors, Peerless proudly discloses its pump RPM, highlighting superior engineering focused on longevity and smooth operation.
Equipped with a Smart Start intake filter, the P17 reduces start-up AMP draw by allowing the motor to reach full speed before air intake begins — protecting the motor and improving efficiency.
The compressor comes with two outlets — one through the water trap regulator and another directly from the tank for full tank pressure. Built to last with solid puncture-proof wheels, the P17 is designed for both mobility and heavy-duty use.
Also available in Fatboy (P17FB) and Vertical (P17V) models, both featuring 110L tanks, ideal for applications where greater air storage is required and portability is less critical.
