Why choose a fixed-speed rotary screw air compressor?
If your business runs on consistent, steady demand for compressed air, a fixed-speed rotary screw air compressor could be the perfect fit. These compressors are built for reliability, delivering a constant air flow without needing adjustments. Their straightforward design makes them easier to maintain. With a lower upfront cost than variable-speed models, they’re a budget-friendly choice for operations where air requirements stay stable.
The beauty of a fixed-speed compressor is in its simplicity and dependability. Businesses in industries like manufacturing, where workflows are consistent, often find fixed-speed models the most efficient option. With Pilot Air, you also get the added assurance of locally built quality, onshore technical support, and ongoing servicing, so your compressor stays reliable for the long haul. It’s a solid, no-fuss solution to keep your operations running smoothly.
The advantages of the electronic controller
The advanced electronic controller makes all the difference when managing your air compressor efficiently and effortlessly. It has features like four maintenance timers for key components such as the air cartridge, oil, oil filter, and oil separator, which ensures you stay on top of servicing to keep your system running smoothly. Add in the automatic restart after power failures, and you’ve got a system that’s not just smart but reliable, minimising downtime in critical operations.
The controller’s multi-function backlit display gives you real-time insights at a glance, including working pressure, oil temperature, total and on-load working hours, and even maintenance countdowns. Customisable settings like cooling fan temperature and remote start add another layer of convenience, while the integrated sequence phase display keeps everything in sync. With this level of control, your compressor operates at peak performance, saving you time, energy, and potential maintenance headaches.
Industries that benefit from fixed-speed rotary screw air compressors
Think manufacturing lines, food processing facilities, woodworking shops, and metal fabrication plants—these environments thrive on the reliable, consistent airflow that fixed-speed compressors provide. Since these compressors operate at a constant speed, they’re perfect for businesses with predictable air needs and minimal fluctuations.
Their straightforward design and dependable performance make them a smart choice for industries that value durability and simplicity.

Pilot Air Reviews
We have a growing manufacturing business and our air supply needed to be upgraded to deliver to a clean volume of air to specific machines and mainly our spray booth. 3 Months ago the team at Pilot Air evaluated our requirement and delivered an excellent solution, we have had time to run the system for a considerable time and found it to be excellent. Also Australian Manufactured to boot. Very Happy.

My husband recently bought a second hand Trademaster 12 air compressor in need of some maintenance. He took it to the Silverwater servicing centre with no prior arrangement. The staff were polite, obliging, and eager to help, and he was impressed with the service provided. Well done Pilot Air!
