Used Breathing Air Compressors

Used breathing air compressors, used HP compressors, used air compressors and used SCUBA compressors are available from American Airworks. We receive used air compressors, mostly from fire departments, that have upgraded to newer larger units. Historically fire departments use their compressors very little but maintain them better than most HP compressor users. Our used compressor inventory consists of Bauer compressors, Mako compressors, Eagle compressors and occassionally Airworks compressors. Most of these high pressure compressors were in fire departments prior to being replaced with new units.

We buy used compressors from fire departments. Email us pictures, hours on unit, electrical specifications and other unit specifications. Usually, found on a metal plate on the chassis.

We run our used compressors for 4-16 hours prior to shipping and make any repairs needed for proper operation. Cylinder valves are inspected and repaired or replaced, purifications towers are internally inspected for pitting and cracks, oil is changed with fresh synthetic oil and new replacement filters are installed.
