The Best Generators and Compressors for Vans

Construction worker’s cars are often full of useful tools. Like in the picture, the vehicle’s loadspace is often quite full. And the space that is left over is used for the transportation of construction materials, parts, and components that are needed on the worksite. Hence, the picture actually summarizes quite well how these kinds of vehicles are used.

A construction worker’s car is often full of all sorts of useful stuff. You can see an HWG Hydraulic Welding Generator on the right side and HKR Hydraulic Screw Compressor on the left.


You can spot two pieces of hydraulic equipment from the van’s loadspace. On the right side, there is a hydraulic welding generator and on the left side, there is a hydraulic screw compressor. As a result, the picture presents one of the advantages of hydraulic equipment: compactness. And if your van doesn’t have a hydraulic system (i.e. PTO) such can be installed on it! Basically all commercial vans and car can carry a hydraulic system so don’t worry!

Why they fit so well into vehicles?

These small and useful pieces of equipment use the carrier vehicles engine as a power source so the pieces of the equipment itself, like generators or compressors, are small. Because of this, they require a minimum amount of maintenance. The components of the hydraulic system, like an oil cooler and oil tank, can be fitted to places where space is not that important. Considering all this, hydraulic equipment is perfect for vans and cars.

How about the heat?

But how about cooling? Like you probably know, this kind of equipment produces heat as a byproduct so cooling is important. With hydraulic equipment, hydraulic oil can do at least some of the cooling. The hydraulic oil as a cooling liquid is a powerful way to cool down the motor of the piece of equipment. For example in the picture, you can see the DYNASET Hydraulic Welding Generator that requires only 50 millimeters airspace in front of it and 25 millimeters of airspace on sides and top. That’s because the Hydraulic Welding Generator’s motor’s surplus heat is mostly transferred to oil cooler via hydraulic oil.

The DYNASET Hydraulic Screw Compressor is even easier and more flexible to install to the vehicle or machine because the cooling of this piece of equipment is carried out entirely by hydraulic oil. In other words, the compressor can be installed in tight places without overheating problems.

This HKR Hydraulic Screw Compressor is installed to the van but it can be installed even tighter places too because the hydraulic oil flow provides cooling for the compressor.
