This line expansion adds to ARB’s existing compressor collection, tailored for those who demand unmatched performance. Plus, it seamlessly integrates with all existing ARB Air accessories, including fittings, hose kits, and inflators!
Brushless Motor:
Brushless motors have less wearing parts, rev faster and cancompress air quicker. Meaning less time inflating and more timeadventuring.
50% Increase In Output:
Both the new brushless single and twin compressors boast animpressive 50% increase in output compared to our already marketleading compressors, making tire inflation faster than ever.
Active Cooling:
Electronically controlled fans will continue to operate even when thecompressor is no longer in use, ensuring the compressor is kept atoptimum operating temperature.
Electronic Speed Control:
Programmed to adjust speed to maintain optimum performance andoperation across all pressures and ambient temperature conditions.
Quick-Release Mounts:
Quick-release mounts for on-board models making installation simplerand faster.
Voltage & Overload Protection:
Built-in protection against voltage spikes, drops or fluctuations, as wellas safeguards against over-current and motor stall.
Function Continuity:
Programmed to constantly monitor performance and make necessaryadjustments to account for external factors, such as temperature andvariations in vehicle charging systems. Brushless on-boardcompressors offer 100% duty cycle, with no need to shutdown tocool off.
Relays Eliminated:
Relays have been removed from on-board models to simplify andspeed up installation.
Status Reporting:
Live diagnostics with both audio and visual alerts.
FAQ
Can I mount Brushless on my current ARB compressor bracket?
Brushless compressors have a smaller overall footprint, because of this, they have a different mounting bolt pattern to ARB’s existing compressors. ARB has vehicle specific mounting brackets in development for popular applications.
Can I re-use my current compressor wiring loom?
Due to the brushless technology inside, there is no longer a need for relays in the wiring loom, becauseof this, a new loom has been developed and comes with each brushless compressor. With the highperformance nature of the Brushless compressor, the gauge of wiring has been increased to providepower to the brushless in the most efficient manner. Because of these changes you cannot use anexisting wiring loom with the Brushless compressors.
BRUSHED compressor VS BRUSHLESS compressor
Brushed motors use brushes and a commutator to transfer electrical current to the rotor, making themsimpler and less expensive but requiring more maintenance due to wear. In contrast, brushless motorseliminate brushes and use electronic controllers to manage current flow, resulting in higher efficiencyand lower maintenance requirements.
Single compressor v twin compressor
Simply, A single compressor is constructed of one compressor providing an air supply, which can besimpler and less costly, Ideal for fitment in vehicle’s that do not have much space. In contrast, a twincompressor system employs two compressors, working in tandem, to provide a greater volume of airand efficiency. This setup is ideal for those that have big tires, a trailer and other high volume airneeds.
Where can I mount my compressor?
There are several locations 4WDers fit on-board air compressors depending on space allocation and vehicle setup. Common locations include engine bays, and under seats. Anywhere with a flat surface and suitable support for the weight of the compressor with do!
Does the Compressor support an Air Locker?
Yes, ARB offer a variety of fittings to connect and operate an Air Locker system with a Brushlesscompressor.
Is my compressor waterproof?
The ARB Brushless is IP67 water resistant, meaning it can be briefly fully submerged, keep in mindthat being an air compressor, it does suck in air therefore it needs a remote intake fitted.
Why Does my compressor get hot?
Compressors get hot when they operate over a long period of time due to the internal friction. The ARBBrushless, being the most efficient and powerful compressor on the market takes a long time to heatup. However, the inbuilt fan will help to maintain stable operating temperatures.
Why is my compressor noisy?
Brushless compressors include an innovative speed controller allowing much greater air output byrevving faster, and higher the revs, = higher noise, AND higher performance.
What fittings do I need to mount the compressor?
Included with the brushless is a quick release bracket and mounting hardware. Enabling you to mountthe brushless to any flush surface. Note: The mounting footprint is different from ARB’s brushed range.
Why does my twin start one motor at a time?
Brushless twin compressors include smart-start technology. A staggered “Power-On” reduces the power spike at start up allowing brushless twins to start up on vehicles with smaller electrical charging systems.
What happens if I have low voltage in my battery?
As an inbuilt part of the brushless twin compressor’s programming, it will shut down just one of its twomotors to keep pumping on a vehicle charging system that has become too drained to still support twincompressor levels of output. That keeps you pumping in adverse conditions.
