Portable Air Compressors for Job Sites & Industrial Applications

Brabazon Pump, Compressor and Vacuum supplies portable air compressors built for flexibility and dependable power wherever your work takes you. From jobsite support to facility backup, our portable compressor lineup covers a wide range of CFM and PSI requirements to keep your operations running with no permanent installation required.

Types of Portable Air Compressors

Portable air compressors come in several configurations depending on your application, power source, and output requirements:

• Diesel-powered portable compressors: Fully self-contained units ideal for construction sites, pipeline work, and remote locations with no electrical service. Available in outputs from 185 to 1,600+ CFM.
• Electric portable rotary screw compressors: Quiet, clean operation for indoor or semi-indoor environments where electricity is available. Suitable for facilities needing temporary additional capacity.
• Towable air compressors: Trailer-mounted units that can be moved between sites with a standard hitch. Ideal for contractors, utility crews, and mobile service operations.
• Portable piston compressors: Compact, lightweight units for smaller CFM requirements — ideal for service vehicles, maintenance crews, and light construction.

Common Applications

• Construction and civil engineering projects requiring jackhammers, compactors, and pneumatic tools
• Pipeline maintenance and hydrostatic testing
• Sandblasting, surface preparation, and industrial painting
• Backup air supply during facility maintenance or primary compressor downtime
• Rental fleet support for short-term peak demand
• Mining and quarry operations

What to Consider When Selecting a Portable Compressor

Choosing the right portable compressor depends on four key factors: the required airflow in CFM, the working pressure in PSI, the available power source (diesel vs. electric), and whether the unit needs to be towable or skid-mounted. Brabazon's applications engineers can help you match the right unit to your specific jobsite conditions and tool requirements. We also offer portable compressor rentals if you only need temporary capacity.
