XATS 1200 Diesel Portable Air Compressor

 XATS 1200 High-Volume Diesel Portable Screw Air Compressor

The Atlas Copco XATS 1200 is a heavy-duty, single-stage oil-injected rotary screw air compressor engineered specifically to replace multiple smaller units on heavy industrial job sites. Driven by a highly reliable 264 kW Cummins diesel engine, this mobile powerhouse provides a massive volume of air (up to 34.6 m³/min) optimized for medium-pressure tasks. Featuring electronic PACE pressure adjustment, a single unit effortlessly adapts from large-scale shipyard sandblasting to foundation construction and pipeline cleaning.

With two selectable working-pressure ratings and a high-capacity air delivery system, it is suitable for projects where consistent compressed-air supply is essential to keeping equipment productive.

Target Applications

• High-Volume Abrasive Sandblasting: Concurrently powering multiple blast pots and air-fed hoods in massive marine shipyards.
• Foundation & Civil Construction: Supplying high air volumes required for pile driving, soil stabilization, and foundation drilling rigs.
• Pipeline Blowing & Pigging: Flushing large-diameter water or gas pipelines smoothly across industrial construction clearings.

Designed Around Real Job-Site Requirements

Two Working-Pressure Options

The XATS 1200 is specified for operation at 8.6 bar or 10.3 bar, with the corresponding airflow changing according to the selected operating condition. This gives equipment buyers a clear basis for matching the compressor to the pressure requirements of their tools and processes.

High Airflow Capacity

With published free air delivery figures of approximately 34.64 and 31.24 m³/min, the XATS 1200 is intended for applications that need a large volume of compressed air. Confirm the required airflow at the operating pressure rather than selecting equipment by engine power alone.

Cummins Diesel Power

The 264 kW DCEC QSL8.9-C360-30 engine provides the power required by the compressor package. Its liquid-cooled design supports operation as part of a self-contained mobile air supply system.

Service-Oriented Package Design

Access to service points, correct lubricant selection, and scheduled inspection are important considerations for high-output compressors. Operators should follow the model-specific maintenance instructions to support reliability and reduce avoidable downtime.
