Diesel Basemount Air Compressors
Heavy-duty Tanair diesel piston compressors for site, agricultural, mobile-service and remote applications where a mains electrical supply is unavailable and the compressor needs to be integrated into a separate receiver or bespoke installation.
Flexible Diesel Compressor Packages for Off-Grid Air
A basemount compressor is supplied without an integral air receiver, giving more flexibility when the compressor is being incorporated into a service vehicle, skid, plant package or an installation with a separate correctly sized receiver.
The current Tanair diesel basemount range comprises three Yanmar-powered models with stated compressor outputs from 15 to 41 CFM. Model selection should consider usable airflow, required pressure, duty cycle and the downstream receiver and air system.

Why Choose a Basemount Diesel Compressor?
Basemount or Receiver Mounted?
Choose basemount when you need flexibility over where and how the compressor is installed, or when a suitable receiver already exists. Choose a receiver-mounted package when you want the compressor and stored-air receiver combined as one assembly.
Selection & Installation Guidance
Important Diesel Engine Safety
Allow suitable clearance around hot engine and exhaust components, keep the unit stable and secure, and make sure any receiver and downstream pressure equipment is correctly rated and installed.
Diesel Basemount Air Compressor FAQs
What is a basemount diesel air compressor?
It is an engine-driven compressor supplied without an integral air receiver. This allows the compressor to be integrated into a separate receiver, service vehicle, skid or bespoke compressed-air installation.
How many Tanair diesel basemount models are currently available?
The current range contains three models: B38B-6-BM.DSSES, B60-10-BM.DSSES and B70-10-BM.DSSES.
What is the airflow range?
The current models carry stated outputs from 15 to 41 CFM. The B60 is additionally verified at 19.6 CFM FAD.
Do these compressors include an air receiver?
No. These are basemount compressors, so the air receiver is selected separately where required.
Can you help size the receiver and compressor?
Yes. Send us your required airflow, working pressure, tools or equipment, expected runtime and installation arrangement and we can help check the compressor and receiver route.
