Frequently asked questions
What is a Delta (Star-Delta) Starter and when is it used?
A Star-Delta Starter is a 3-phase starter that reduces the initial inrush current when starting larger motors (e.g. 11 kW or 15 kW), making it ideal for Pilot Air compressors like the K60 and K100 where smooth, reliable motor starts are needed.
Are Pilot Air Delta Starters made in Australia and able to handle local conditions?
Yes — these starters are Australian made, designed to cope with heat, humidity, and regular heavy-duty duty typical of operations in Sydney and other parts of Australia.
Which compressor models are compatible with Pilot Air Delta Starters?
The Delta Starters are typically used on 11 kW and 15 kW compressors, such as the Pilot Air K60 and K100. If in doubt, you can check compatibility via the Air Compressors product page.
How do I get a quote or purchase a Delta Starter if I’m located in NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, NT or TAS?
You can request a quote directly on the Delta Starter page — Pilot Air services all major Australian states, ensuring local support and delivery.
What support is available for spare parts or servicing of these starters in Sydney?
Pilot Air offers spare Starter spares and technical support from its Service & Spares Division in Auburn and its manufacturing facility in Silverwater, NSW. If you need replacements or help, the Spare Parts section is a good starting point.
Our 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!
