Peerless Black PB17000 Single Phase Air Compressor – Power, Performance, and Reliability in One
View our range of Peerless Single Phase Air Compressors
Producing an impressive 280 litres per minute of free air delivery, the Peerless Black 17000 Single Phase Air Compressor runs on a 3HP electric motor (15A plug) makes this quite the performer for a light industrial air compressor.
Like its model below, the PB14000, its unique design also comes with caster wheels on the front and pneumatic wheels on the back which makes it very easy to move from job to job.
For a light industrial air compressor it packs a lot of punch but it also has its limitations, keep in mind for high air demands you will have to step it up to a bigger air compressor like a belt drive, be sure to check your air tools for the air flow requirements but most importantly use our “Find the right air compressor” tool located on our home page to assist in making the right decision for your air needs.
The Peerless Black PB17000 is able to run;
- Low pressure spray gun
- Car tyre inflation gun
- Stapling / fitting gun
- Framing / grease gun
- Chalking / riveter gun
- Screw driver
- 1/2″ Ratchet / impact gun
- Air duster
Peerless Black PB17000 Features:
- Powerful 3 HP Motor
The 17000 compressor is equipped with a 3-horsepower motor that delivers high performance and efficiency, providing up to 14 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) at 145 PSI. Whether you’re running air tools, spray painting, or inflating large tires, this compressor is built to handle it all with ease. - Quiet and Smooth Operation
Designed with user comfort in mind, the Peerless Black PB17000 operates quietly, allowing you to work without the disruptive noise typical of other air compressors. Its smooth operation reduces vibrations and ensures consistent airflow for continuous use. - 50 Litre Steel Air Tank
The 50 litre tank provides ample storage for compressed air, allowing you to work longer without needing frequent cycles. This makes the Peerless Black 17000 perfect for sustained tasks like sanding, power washing, and air-tool use. - Single-Phase Motor for Easy Setup
Unlike some industrial-grade compressors that require special wiring, the single-phase motor ensures simple installation and compatibility with standard home or workshop electrical systems. No need for complicated setups—just plug it in and get to work! - Durable Construction for Long-Lasting Performance
Built with a heavy-duty steel frame and tank, the Peerless Black PB17000 is designed for durability and resilience. Its rugged construction ensures it can handle the toughest environments, making it an excellent choice for both indoor and outdoor applications. - Automatic Pressure Control
Featuring an auto-shutoff function, the compressor stops running when the desired pressure is reached and automatically restarts when air pressure drops. This feature helps to prevent overheating and ensures the compressor works efficiently, saving energy and extending its lifespan. - User-Friendly Design
The intuitive control panel includes easy-to-read gauges for monitoring pressure levels, and the ergonomic handle and rubber feet make it easy to move and keep stable during use. The integrated drain valve allows for easy maintenance, ensuring the longevity of the compressor.

Please note: air compressors i.e piston type, are not designed to run continuously they must cut in and out. Direct drive models should only have up to a 40-50% duty cycle. Belt Drive hobby models are up to 60-70% and full industrial belt drive models are up to 75-85%. If the compressor runs over these duty cycles it could cause failure. Important – first check voltage on each building site as low voltage will cause the motor to fail on all compressors. It must have be better than 230 volt at peak times. Extension leads will cause voltage drop, it’s better to use extra air hose.
Performance of all our belt driven air compressors are to AS4637.
