The NGS 45 VS offers 45 kW (60 HP) of power, serving as a heavy-duty compressor for large-scale industrial needs. This model is designed to operate continuously, 24/7. The 45 VS carries forward all of the Next Generation Series’ cutting-edge features, including variable speed drive for efficiency, direct-drive transmission, advanced electronic controls, and comprehensive protections, all in a larger package optimised for even greater output. Despite its size and output, the design emphasises efficiency and sustainability: users can expect significant energy savings with quieter operation and smarter control.

Built for Australian business and tested in the harshest conditions the NGS rotary screw range is backed by our platinum 3-year warranty and supported by onshore servicing, maintenance and an extensive inventory of spare parts. A workhorse that powers your business without the downtime.
Producing approximately 117 L/s at 8 bar, the NGS 45 VS delivers the high-volume compressed air required to support multiple production lines or large pneumatic systems simultaneously. This level of output makes it well-suited as a primary compressor in demanding industrial environments.
The advanced variable-speed inverter adjusts motor speed to match real-time air demand, significantly reducing power consumption during partial-load operation. Compared to fixed-speed compressors of similar capacity, this can translate into substantial long-term electricity cost savings.
Engineered for 24/7 operation, the NGS 45 VS features a reinforced frame, heavy-gauge steel enclosure, and oversized internal components. This elevated construction ensures reliable performance under constant heavy loads and harsh industrial conditions.
The direct-drive coupling eliminates transmission losses and ensures alignment between the motor and air-end. This design improves efficiency, reduces mechanical wear, and contributes to longer service intervals.
Equipped with a premium IE3/IE4 efficiency motor and optimised internal airflow, the 45 VS delivers high output with reduced energy waste. Improved cooling and ventilation keep operating temperatures low while minimising fan power consumption.
The NGS 45 VS is backed by Pilot Air’s 3 year warranty, the highest in its class and supported by a nationwide network of qualified technicians and service specialists.
The intelligent controller provides detailed operational data, alarm history, and configurable pressure settings for accurate system management. Optional communication modules allow integration with plant automation, energy management, and multi-compressor sequencing systems.
Pilot Air’s reputation for performance, reliability and service is unmatched in the Australian industrial market. The next generation (NGS) range is no exception. Engineered for users who need enhanced performance from a variable speed compressor but don’t require the advanced features of our premium models. It’s the sweet spot between affordability and performance.
Pilot Air’s next-generation rotary screw air compressors deliver on performance, reliability, and price. Constructed using premium components, the NGS variable speed compressors bridge the gap between our PAC fixed speed options and the premium ALTA TEC offering. The perfect balance of capability and value for money. Explore NGS Range.

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!
I would just like to thank Debbie and the team at Pilot Air Compressors Service Department for a great job done this morning.
Excellent job done, Great Staff & Great Service
Thank you Debbie & the team at Pilot Air Compressors…
