A triple-pass, pump-mounted aftercooler further reduces discharge temperature before air reaches the tank. The factory-installed magnetic starter provides motor protection.

The Elite Series pressurized automatic tank drain removes that condensate without relying on an electronic timer, while the oil sight glass makes routine lubrication checks easy. The three-phase motor also requires less current than an equivalent single-phase setup, and BelAire lists a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40-amp breaker\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e for this model.
