Compact, lightweight and durable, the new XAS67Kd compressor from Atlas Copco offers mobility and versatility as it can be towed behind a small car
161 Atlas Copco is boosting its compressor range with the addition of a lightweight model that can be towed behind a car. Weighing just 750kg the HAS67Kd model is powered by a four cylinder 1265 Kubota diesel rated at 26.5kW and which drives a C80 compressor element through a direct transmission. Said to be highly efficient and almost maintenance-free, the XAS67Kd can deliver 3.7m3/min of air at 7bars and can power two tools simultaneously. Like other compressors in the range the unit features a durable and lightweight polyethylene canopy, 40litre fuel tank and can work in temperatures from -20°C to 50°C.
