Built for Professional Performance
The BelAire 318V is engineered from the ground up for professional users who demand consistent performance day after day. The two-stage compression system provides superior efficiency compared to single-stage units, delivering more air per horsepower while reducing operating temperatures and extending component life. The solid cast iron cylinder construction ensures exceptional heat dissipation and wear resistance, making this compressor ideal for continuous-duty applications.
Safety and ease of maintenance are built into every aspect of the design. The fully enclosed high-flow belt guard protects operators while maintaining optimal airflow for cooling. The oil level sight glass allows for quick visual inspection of lubrication levels, and the start-stop pressure switch control provides automatic operation for convenience and energy efficiency. With ASME code tank and safety valves, this compressor meets stringent safety standards for commercial applications.
The 208-230 volt single-phase motor configuration with included magnetic starter ensures safe, reliable operation in most commercial facilities without requiring three-phase power. At 457 lbs shipping weight, the 318V is substantial enough for stable operation yet can still be positioned where needed in your facility.
