Heli-Portable Booster Air Compressors by NCA
National Compressed Air (NCA) is a world leader in the design and manufacturing of Helicopter Portable Air Booster Compressors for drilling applications.
Heli-Portable Booster Air Compressors are a category of Lightweight Air Compressors designed and manufactured in a way to be lifted and safely moved in single or multiple pieces by light, single-engine helicopters and assembled on-site.
Heli-Portable Booster Air Compressors are used mostly for drilling applications in remote and low access areas when the existing low-pressure air compressor cannot deliver the required air pressure.
Typical applications include, but are not limited to Seismic Drilling, Mineral Explorations (Reverse Circulation or Rotary Air Blast), or Geotechnical operations.
Design Features of Heli-Portable Booster Air Compressors
Helicopter Portable Booster Compressors made by NCA Canada, use high-performance single-stage oil-flooded screw airends and depending on capacity and number of pieces may require a helicopter with a lifting capacity of approximately 1000 to 2500 lbs.
A Helicopter Portable Booster Compressor uses a lightweight steel frame suitable for helicopter lifting and compact auxiliary equipment like stacked radiators or oil coolers.
Our Heli-portable Boosters cover a range of volumes up to 700 SCFM and 350 PSIG discharge pressures for standard models. NCA offers several options and customizations to suit our customers’ specific needs.
Safety features such as high discharge and receiver temperatures, minimum pressure valves, and safety relief valves are provisioned for air compressors. Diesel engines are equipped with low oil pressure and high coolant temperature features.
NCA also offers atmospheric Heli-Portable Air Compressors if you need a low-pressure feed compressor in remote, limited access jobsites.
