ARB Brushless Single Motor Onboard 12V Air Compressor CKBLA12

ARB Brushless Single Motor Onboard 12V Air Compressor CKBLA12

The ARB Brushless Single Motor Onboard 12V Air Compressor CKBLA12 gives a weekend 4x4 its own built-in air supply without the size or current draw of a twin. It mounts under the bonnet, in a drawer system or on a tray. Once it is wired, there is no case to dig out and no clamps to fit when you leave the trail.

Features and Benefits

At its core is a single brushless motor with a 100% duty cycle. ARB rates it to run for the full 60 minutes in every hour. Free flow is 130 L/min (4.6 CFM). At 29 psi (200 kPa) it delivers 88 L/min (3.1 CFM). ARB states its brushless compressors give 50% more output than its brushed range. The brushed single motor is rated at 87 L/min of free flow.

Additionally, ARB says the brushless motor removes the need for relays, which cuts fitting time. Cam-lock quick-release mounts let you take the compressor off when you need to. The complete kit weighs 4.5 kg (9.9 lb). It measures 140 x 210 x 90 mm (5.5 x 8.3 x 3.5 in).

Moreover, a cooling fan and electronic speed control come built in. So do live audio and visual status alerts, plus voltage and overload protection. The compressor monitors itself and adjusts for temperature and for variations in your charging system.

Product-Specific Use Cases

On the Fujairah mountain tracks, dropping a few psi gives the tyres more grip on loose rock. With air under the bonnet, you top up at the trailhead before the tarmac and keep moving. ARB states its brushless compressors work with ARB Air Lockers and its existing hose kits, so the system can grow with the build.
