GDR‑500E High‑Pressure Breathing Air Compressor is a heavy‑duty 4‑stage piston breathing compressor specially built for filling scuba diving tanks and firefighting self‑contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). It delivers 500 L/min (18 cfm) flow rate with dual working pressure: 225 bar for scuba diving and up to 350 bar for firefighting air bottles.

Producing clean breathable compressed air compliant with ISO 12021 and CGA Grade‑D breathing‑air requirements, this unit fits fire stations, dive centres, offshore platforms, chemical plants and emergency rescue teams. Multiple drive options (electric explosion‑proof motor, diesel or gasoline engine) support site‑specific deployment. Robust construction guarantees over 10‑year service life under regular maintenance.

GDR-500E high pressure air compressor


Product Advantages

  • Dual‑pressure working mode

Switchable max working pressure: 225 bar (scuba diving) / 350 bar (fire‑fighting SCBA). Adjustable high‑pressure safety valve provides reliable over‑pressure protection for operators and cylinders.

  • High‑purity breathing‑air output

Multi‑stage purification with activated carbon & molecular‑sieve filter cartridges. Final‑stage oil‑moisture separator removes contaminants, delivering breathable air meeting international breathing‑air standards for life‑critical applications.

  • Flexible power & motor options

220‑440 V, 50/60 Hz 3‑phase IP55 electric motor as standard; explosion‑proof motor, diesel engine or gasoline engine are optional for hazardous‑area installation.

  • Durable long‑life components

Wear‑resistant CMC‑alloy cylinder and piston assemblies. Air‑cooled structure with stainless‑steel & aluminium condenser tubes, built for continuous heavy‑load operation.

  • Smart operational safety functions

Auto condensate drain, automatic shutdown protection, shock‑proof pressure gauge. Support single‑port or dual‑port inflation to fill one or two cylinders simultaneously; inflation‑time recording system for traceable filling logs.

  • Full customization capability

Support OEM & ODM: custom voltage, inflation ports, cabinet colour, logo marking and wooden export packaging.

  • Complete after‑sales support

12‑month whole‑machine warranty (consumable parts excluded). Online technical guidance, global agent support and overseas engineer service on request.


Typical Applications

  • Fire‑fighting: Municipal & miniature fire stations, SCBA cylinder refilling.

  • Diving: Dive shops, sports diving clubs, offshore marine operations.

  • Industry: Chemical plant rescue, high‑pressure gas testing, air‑tightness inspection.

  • Other: Shooting sports, racing breathing‑air charging, medical‑related gas preparation.
