50 L and 2.5 HP compressor - 205 L/min with two air outlets
50-litre, 2.5 HP compressor
The most balanced configuration in the direct-drive range: 2.5 HP, 205 L/min and a 50-litre air tank. Enough flow to run real tools and enough reserve not to hear the motor every couple of minutes.
It includes two independent air outlets and thermal protection. It runs from a 230 V socket, sits on wheels and is the compressor that handles the daily work of a small workshop or a well-equipped garage.
✅ Main advantages
205 L/min at 8 bar with 50 litres of reserve behind it.
Fewer start-up cycles: the motor rests and lasts longer.
Two air outlets for two connected tools.
Thermal protection against overheating.
Single-phase 230 V: no special electrical installation.
🏗️ What it is used for
Mechanical workshop: impact wrench, ratchet, inflating and blowing.
Carpentry and assembly with high-rate nailers.
Spray painting of parts and furniture.
Building sites, renovations and general maintenance.

💡 Professional tip: a 1/2" impact wrench consumes in the order of 200-300 L/min in intermittent use. With 205 L/min you are on the limit but it works for tightening and loosening wheels; what you will not be able to do is sand or blast, because those are continuous consumptions above 300 L/min. Choose according to your tool's consumption, not the litres of the tank.
Frequently asked questions
Is it suitable for an impact wrench?
An impact wrench in intermittent use consumes in the order of 200-300 L/min. With 205 L/min it is on the limit, but it is fine for tightening and loosening wheels; it is not suitable for sanding or blasting.
What is the difference from the 2 HP, 50-litre model?
It steps up from 2 HP to 2.5 HP and from 195 to 205 L/min, keeping the 50-litre air tank and the two air outlets.
Can I use two tools at the same time?
Yes, it has two independent outlets, but the 205 L/min flow rate is a single figure shared between the two.
What matters more, the litres of the tank or the flow rate?
Choose according to your tool's consumption in L/min. The 50-litre tank reduces the number of starts, but it does not replace the flow rate the tool needs.
Does it need a special electrical installation?
No. It is single-phase 230 V, has thermal protection and runs on wheels.
