Applications
What it is used for
JamaliTech in Industrial Area, Kampala handles industrial air compressors, and the BT-AC500Y is listed as a 500-litre belt-driven piston unit with a 10 hp / 7.5 kW motor on a 380 V three-phase supply — an industrial connection, not a wall socket. The manufacturer publishes no working pressure and no air delivery figure, so ask the supplier for a rated delivery at a stated pressure before you size your tools against it. The listed 166 kg carton weight is low for a machine this size, so arrange transport and lifting on a weighed figure and ask for the crate dimensions before delivery day.
- Running impact wrenches and tyre-changing bays for truck and bus fleets along Jinja Road and Nakawa.
- Feeding spray guns in vehicle body shops and furniture-finishing workshops around Industrial Area and Kisenyi.
- Driving pneumatic chisels, grinders and riveters in metal fabrication shops in Katwe and Ntinda.
- Supplying shop air to grain mills, feed mills and food plants using pneumatic actuators.
- Workshop ring mains in engineering yards where several benches draw air at once.
Questions buyers ask
Will it run on my workshop power in Kampala?
Only with a three-phase supply. The published 380 V is a three-phase line voltage, so a single-phase 240 V socket will not run this machine. Uganda's three-phase distribution is nominally 415 V, which a 380 V motor normally tolerates, but the motor nameplate is the authority — check it, and check that it reads 50 Hz.
How much air will it actually deliver?
The manufacturer publishes no free air delivery figure for this model, and we will not quote one we cannot verify. Ask the supplier for a rated delivery at a stated pressure, in writing. Then add up the continuous air consumption of every tool you intend to run at the same time and compare the two before you commit.
How heavy is it and how do I get it into my workshop?
This is the number to be careful with: the manufacturer publishes a 166 kg carton weight, which is low for a complete 500-litre belt-drive unit with a three-cylinder pump and a 7.5 kW motor. Have it weighed before you book a lorry, hire a forklift or commit to a first-floor or mezzanine location. The published 1.5 m³ carton volume tells you nothing about width or height, so ask the supplier for the crate dimensions.
