High Quality Components

With years of experience machining quality components, Kulmec designs and builds with high quality pistons, cylinders, valves and other components to exacting specifications. Completed boosters are factory – tested to our rigorous quality standards.

Advance Cylinder Technology

Kulmec Industrial Booster cylinders are bored with precision and finished by a special process that ensures minimum oil consumption and negligible water for great durability.

Effective Cooling

The rugged aftercooler in our two cylinder machines is efficient and maintenance free, achieving low compressed air outlet temperatures.

Manual belt tensioning

A simple slide based V-belt tensioner makes it easy to adjust belt tension and avoid misalignment.

Electric Motor

Our premium TEFC motors have class F insulation and are EISA compliant. 3-phase, 460 or 575 v are standard.

Low Vibration

Our boosters are built on durable steel base frames with anti-vibration mounts for quiet, smooth operation.

Durable High Pressure Pumps

Our high pressure pumps feature lower rotational speeds to promote extended operational life and consistent efficiency.

Low discharge temperatures

A generously proportioned aftercooler keeps the compressed air outlet temperatures comfortably low on air-cooled models

Water-cooled aftercooler

A water-cooled aftercooler is offered on the KB-50 to achieve discharge approach temperatures as low as 11oF.

Forced Lubrication

A forced lubrication system provides increased reliability and service life of the pump. Full-flow filtration extends the oil change interval.

Instrument panel

Our Standard instrument panel contains gauges for air temperature, oil pressure, intel air pressure, inlet are pressure and discharge air pressure.
