Seattle, July 25/ ARB 4x4 Accessories/ -- Australian based four-wheel parts manufacturer ARB, has developed an all new low amp drawing, high flowing, on-board compressor kit to operate ARB Air Locking Differentials and air-up your tires faster than ever.

Designed to be versatile enough to both operate ARB Air Lockers, air-up oversized tires and be compact enough to fit into tight areas where other high flowing compressors cannot, the new CKMA12 compressor is the highest flowing compressor in its class. With a 50% duty cycle supporting a flow of 2.65CFM, this compressor will have no problem airing up four 35” in a single duty cycle.

Featuring a pressure switch controlled air manifold system specifically designed to work with ARB Air Locker equipped vehicles, this unit is ideal for operating ARB Air Lockers, however, the unit works equally well as a stand alone on-board air system for tire inflation. Fully sealed for dust and moisture resistance with a relocatable splash resistant air filter assembly for waterproof air intake positioning, this compressor is well suited to the harsh conditions known to serious off-roaders.

The hard-anodized cylinder bore and Teflon impregnated carbon fiber piston seal for reduced friction combined with the German made high shock rated cylinder bearing ensure maximum product longevity.

A new anodized mounting bracket dissipates motor heat and allows the unit to be repositioned 180º for maximum installation versatility. Anti-vibration and sound deadening materials have been integrated into the mount and the 100% ball bearing equipped motor with unique linear brush pre-load system ensures low heat and quiet operation for the life of this unit.

Electronically the new CKMA12 compressor by ARB features a heavy duty Maxi-Fuse for in-line circuit protection and the motor has been internally thermal protected from extreme temperature damage.

Packaged fully assembled and complete with wiring loom, ARB Air Locker solenoid plug contacts, switches, air-filter with washable high-flow sintered bronze filter cartridge and mounting hardware. The ARB Pump-up Kit (PUKT), which includes the tire inflation hose, chuck piece and recreational inflation fitting accessories is sold separately.

Recommended retail pricing for the High Output On-Board Compressor (CKMA12) is $264.50 and $48.88 for the optional Pump-up Tire Inflation Kit (PUKT).
