Frequently Asked Questions

Is the K17SD built to handle typical Australian job-site stresses (heat, heavy duty, intermittent use)?

Yes. The K17SD Classic Industrial Portable 240V Reciprocating Compressor is Australian built, featuring heavy-duty componentry like a twin cast-iron cylinder and an Italian-made pump, designed for reliability and longevity under harsh conditions and continuous or intermittent use.

What are the key performance specifications so I know if it suits my workshop or site setup?

According to the K17SD specifications, it delivers ~205 L/min free air delivery, has a 1.65 kW motor, a 100 L receiver, twin cylinders, and a maximum working pressure of 1000 kPa (≈145 psi), making it useful for many trade-level tools and workshop tasks.

What warranty and service support does Pilot Air offer for this model—especially for Sydney customers?

Pilot Air provides a 5-year warranty on the compressor pump, 5 years on the build, and 1 year on all other components for the K17SD model. Local support is strong, with service & spares available via their Sydney branches in Silverwater and Auburn.

What safety and compliance standards are met, and what features protect the unit and operator?

The K17SD compressor includes an air receiver built to AS1210 standards and an electric motor overload protection to guard against motor damage. Its low speed and low vibration “K-series” pump configuration also reduce wear and help safety in continuous operation.

How portable is the unit, and what are its size, weight, and installation considerations?

The K17SD Classic Portable weighs about 90 kg, measures approximately 1100 × 490 × 920 mm, and uses a 100 L receiver. Although portable, it’s designed with durable components and moderate weight—so while it can be moved, it’s best suited to semi-fixed workshop setups rather than frequent transport between remote sites.

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!
