Utilizing the truck’s own engine for power, Vanair® PTO Driven Underdeck Rotary Screw Compressor Systems provide the power your crew needs to get the job done where and when they need it. Using a single PTO opening and the truck’s own engine for power, these systems provide impressive air power, AC power or hydraulics, or any combination of all three, and more. These assemblies mount out of sight under your vehicle. This leaves the towing hitch free for other equipment and opens up the truck bed for additional storage space. Vanair® PTO Underdeck Systems support a wide variety of field applications, including pneumatic tools for post pounding, pipe fusion, sewer relining, gas line charging, and more.
