Line Shaft Compressor
LSC Series
The Line Shaft Compressor series, also known as the LSC air compressor series, engineers the compressors to operate through a line shaft powered by a diesel engine. The compressors have pillow blocks that allow for convenient belt installation. They cater to a wide range of applications ranging from 15 to 60 HP with three different models available.
Furthermore, they have uncomplicated pneumatic controls and a temperature safety shut down feature to ensure their protection.
