PhaZair 230 VSD Receiver-Mounted Compressors
Compare 5.5 kW single-phase variable speed screw compressors supplied on a 270-litre receiver, delivering 27.5 CFM at 8 bar or 24 CFM at 10 bar.
Choose Between 8 Bar and 10 Bar
Both models use a 5.5 kW motor, a 230 V single-phase supply and a 270-litre receiver. The correct choice depends on required pressure and airflow.
8 Bar Model
Provides 27.5 CFM for applications that can operate correctly at 8 bar after system losses.
10 Bar Model
Provides 24 CFM where tools or machinery genuinely require the higher working pressure.
270-Litre Receiver
Provides local air storage and helps manage short demand peaks without increasing continuous compressor output.

| Model | Airflow | Pressure | Receiver |
|---|---|---|---|
| PhaZair-230-5.5-08-270-VSD | 27.5 CFM | 8 Bar | 270 Litre |
| PhaZair-230-5.5-10-270-VSD | 24 CFM | 10 Bar | 270 Litre |
When should I choose the 8 bar model?
Choose 8 bar where it meets the application requirement after pressure losses. It provides the higher airflow of the two models.
When should I choose the 10 bar model?
Choose 10 bar only where connected equipment genuinely requires it. Higher pressure normally reduces airflow and increases energy use.
What does the receiver do?
The 270-litre receiver stores compressed air, helps stabilise the system and supports short peaks in demand. It does not increase continuous CFM.
Is a refrigerated dryer included?
No. These receiver-mounted models do not include an integrated refrigerated dryer. Drying and filtration should be selected separately where required.
What electrical checks are required?
Confirm the 230 V supply, protective device, cable size and local isolator with a qualified electrician before installation.
What else should be checked before installation?
Confirm ventilation, service clearance, pipework size, condensate disposal and the air-quality requirements of the connected equipment.
