Product detailed description
ABAC Tech ATH · 20 bar · 270 lReady-made high-pressure assembly. The ATH-5,5/20-270FTX is a two-stage unit mounted on a 270 l horizontal air receiver, with a delivery of 402 l/min at 20 bar. The tank is certified for the operating pressure and also serves as the base — the unit, motor and pressure switch are mounted on it from the factory. The S1 motor can run continuously.
What's simpler about the assembly with a tank
Not just any tank can be connected to twenty bar: it must be designed for that pressure and have the corresponding inspection and documentation. In the FT version, the manufacturer handles this — the tank is part of the machine and is certified together with it. The assembly only needs to be set up, wired and connected to the distribution line.
Two hundred seventy litres at twenty bar holds a large reserve of air, so the motor starts less often and the pressure in the distribution line is more stable. However, the weight of 211 kg and length of 1,915 mm are the price to pay — the machine needs to be transported to the installation site using equipment.

Machine details


Where to go next if the ATH-5,5/20-270FTX isn't the right fit
Without the tank, the same machine is the ATH-5,5/20-BTX, a stronger assembly is the ATH-7,5/20-270FTX. The smallest assemblies with a ninety-litre tank are the ATH-1,5/20-90FT and ATH-2,2/20-90FT. The full overview is in the overview of the entire category.
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
Two hundred seventy litres at twenty bar represents a large reserve of energy. Don't put off draining the tank — condensate is a bigger issue with high-pressure machines than with ten-bar ones.

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.
