Frequently Asked Questions
What defines a “silent” air compressor in the Pilot Air range?
The Silent series combines Pilot Air’s durability with noise-reducing design, such as sound-insulated cabinets and low dB(A) ratings — you can compare performance specs on the Silent Air Compressors page.
Are Silent compressors built for Australian conditions?
Yes — they’re manufactured in Silverwater, Sydney, with components and design optimised to handle heat, dust, and heavy usage across suburbs and industrial zones. Service and spares are also stocked locally via our Service & Spares Division
Which Silent models are available and what air delivery do they offer?
Models include the K17SI (1.65 kW / 2.2 kW), K30SI and K50SI, each with different free air delivery rates (e.g. 205 L/min up to ~888 L/min) — all designed for quieter performance. Full range and specs are in Silent Air Compressors.
How much quieter are Silent compressors compared to standard models?
The Silent Series units run at approximately 60-70 dB(A), making them significantly quieter than many industrial reciprocating or rotary units. This helps reduce noise complaints and meet workshop or neighbour-friendly noise requirements. See sound ratings under the Silent Air Compressors listings.
What service support and spare parts are available in Sydney for Silent compressors?
Pilot Air provides full service & maintenance for Silent compressors, plus local spare parts via our Auburn and Silverwater facilities. If you need parts or repair, check our Spare Parts page and Air Compressor Service & Quality for support
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!

Thanks Pilot Air! We have just purchased our third pilot compressor (K50). Our oldest one (K25) is 14 years old and still going strong, used all day every day only replaced pressure switch.
