Product detailed description
ABAC Tech ATH · 20 bar · direct startThe last machine in the series with direct start. ATH-2,2/20-BT delivers 174 l/min at 20 bar and starts directly — from four kilowatts up, the manufacturer already uses star-delta. It is a two-stage unit on a steel support frame, without its own air receiver, with an S1 motor for continuous operation.
Where the limit of direct starting lies
Up to 2.2 kW, the motor starts directly: the contactor closes and the machine runs. From 4 kW upwards it is marked with X in the code and starts via star-delta, because the current surge during direct start would be too much for a standard power supply. If your electrical distribution is weaker or the machine starts frequently, this limit matters more than the difference in output.
In terms of output, that's 48 l/min more than the smallest machine in the series, i.e. about a third more. Intake rises from 204 to 252 l/min, and the ratio between intake and delivered air improves from 62 to 69%.
Equipment and details
What the ATH-2,2/20-BT comes equipped with from the factory
- two-stage oil-lubricated unit with two V-shaped cylinders, 1,500 rpm
- 2.2 kW motor in S1 mode, i.e. 100% duty cycle without pauses for cooling
- direct drive without belts — the unit sits directly on the motor
- mounted on a steel support frame without an air receiver — air goes to the distribution network or to your own tank

- intake 252 l/min, delivery rate 174 l/min at an operating pressure of 20 bar
- intercooler between the low-pressure and high-pressure cylinder, stainless steel valves
- crankshaft bearings factory-filled with grease for the entire service life
- weight 73 kg, dimensions 686 × 575 × 671 mm; noise level 99 dB Lwa, at 4 m 79 dB
- 2-year warranty
Machine details


Where to go next if the ATH-2,2/20-BT isn't the right fit
The smaller option is the ATH-1,5/20-BT, a complete set with a ninety-litre tank is the ATH-2,2/20-90FT, and seventy percent more air is delivered by the ATH-4/20-BTX. The full overview is in the category overview.
Delivery is the amount of air the machine delivers at an operating pressure of 20 bar; intake is the volume drawn in by the low-pressure cylinder. Noise level is given as the sound power level Lwa from the nameplate and as sound pressure at 4 m from the machine. Performance data according to ISO 1217, Annex C, noise level according to ISO 2151.
Ventilek’s tip
Choose this machine if you don't want to deal with a star-delta starter. From four kilowatts up, it's already mandatory equipment, along with the corresponding protection.

The company ABAC has been one of the most important manufacturers of piston compressors on the world market since its establishment in 1980 . Currently, the brand ABAC is owned by ATLAS COPCO, the largest compressor manufacturer in the world and is part of the multinational group PAD (Professional Air Division). The goal of the ABAC brand is to become a world leader in the development, production and sale of piston compressors.

Production at company ABAC
ABAC compressors are manufactured in 5 production centers around the world, with an annual production of almost 2 million compressors. The brand's parent plant ABAC in Turin, Italy employs around 250 employees and is primarily focused on the design and production of professional V-belt compressors with a daily production capacity of over 600 machines. The ABAC plant also has extensive warehouse facilities with several thousand compressors available for immediate delivery.

Innovative concept
ABAC does not only mean compressor production. We are directly involved in the development of key innovations and advanced solutions and set trends in the compressor market. The efforts of our designers have resulted in, for example, an aerodynamic pulley housing for temperature reduction of up to 35°C, the revolutionary XPAND hose reel compressor or the PRO LINE ZERO oil-free compressors with V-belts. In the ABAC program you will always find the most modern and unique solution for compressed air production on the market.

A modern solution
We are a modern company that is aware of the current trends around us. We are bringing advanced technologies to the compressor industry, such as the use of QR codes and the AIR TUBE app to make it easier for the user of our compressor to access the information they need. We use social media, chat and multimedia instead of traditional marketing and documentation formats. With compressors ABAC you will always have convenient access to all the necessary information.

Compressor program
In the supplier program of the ABAC brand you will find 100%. The basic range includes 100% from small portable compressors for home applications to larger stationary compressors for permanent deployment.
