Continuous-duty compressor 3 HP - 330 L/min at 10 bar for texture spray
This unit is designed for the opposite of a standard compressor: instead of filling a tank and stopping, it can withstand 2 hours of continuous operation. That is why it has a minimal 3-litre tank, which here only dampens pulsations, and a motor running slowly at 1,400 rpm.
It delivers 330 L/min at 10 bar on a sustained basis, which is exactly what spraying machines require: textured coatings, sprayed mortars and painting large surfaces. In these jobs air is not consumed in bursts, it is consumed constantly, and a compressor with a large tank but low air delivery runs dry within two minutes.
✅ Key benefits
2 hours of continuous work: designed not to stop, not to run in cycles.
330 L/min at 10 bar of sustained air delivery, not peak delivery.
Motor at 1,400 rpm: turns slowly and can take the strain.
Only 3-litre tank: minimal weight and volume for what it delivers.
Chassis with wheels and high handle: moved around the site like a wheelbarrow.
🏗️ What it is for
Textured coating machines and emulsion paint spraying.
Spraying mortars and renders.
Painting large surfaces with a gravity-feed spray gun.
Site work requiring uninterrupted air for hours.

💡 Pro tip: do not compare this compressor with a 50-litre one on price: they are not in the same league. A standard compressor has a 50% duty cycle (half an hour running, half an hour at rest) and if you set it to spray textured coatings all morning you will burn it out within a couple of jobs. The figure that matters here is the continuous duty cycle, not the litres.
Frequently asked questions
What does continuous work mean?
It means it is designed to run for up to 2 hours non-stop, instead of filling a tank and resting. That is why it has a motor running at 1,400 rpm that turns slowly and can take the strain.
Why does it have only a 3-litre tank?
Because here the tank only dampens pulsations: what matters is producing 330 L/min at 10 bar on a sustained basis, not storing air.
What air delivery does a textured coating machine need?
It depends on the machine, but they consume air constantly. Compare the consumption in L/min of your spray gun or spraying machine with this unit's 330 L/min; it is designed for textured coatings and spraying mortars.
Is it also suitable for painting?
Yes, for painting large surfaces with a gravity-feed spray gun and spraying emulsion paint, where air consumption is constant.
Why not compare it with a 50-litre compressor?
A standard compressor works with a duty cycle of around 50%, half an hour running and half an hour at rest. This one is built for continuous duty, so the figure that matters is not the litres.
