BelAire 318VE Elite Series 5 HP Two-Stage Air Compressor 80 Gallon Vertical 230V 1-Phase

5 HP Two-Stage Reciprocating Air Compressor on an 80 Gal Vertical Tank, Single Phase

When two techs run impact guns at once, a small compressor falls behind. Pressure drops, tools stall, and the job takes longer.

The BelAire 318VE is a 5 HP two-stage air compressor on an 80 gal vertical tank. It delivers 18.5 cfm at 100 psi, builds up to 175 psi and runs on 208-230V single phase.

Elite Series Equipment as Standard

The Elite Series adds the parts most shops buy later. A magnetic starter protects the motor, and a low oil switch shuts the unit down before the pump runs dry.

The automatic tank drain clears condensate on its own, and the triple-pass pump-mounted aftercooler cools the air on its way to the tank. Less water in the tank means less water in your air lines.

Sized to Fit the Shop

The 80 gal vertical tank stands in a corner on a 39 × 24 in footprint. Overall size is 39 × 24 × 77 in, and the shipping weight is 467 lb.

It runs on 208-230V single phase power. Most small shops already have single-phase service, so no three-phase upgrade is needed.
