Hitachi Global Air Power will bring its next generation of electric portable air compressors to CONEXPO 2026 in Las Vegas. The showcase will deliver machines with evolved performance while helping rental and construction contractors reduce operating costs and meet sustainability expectations.
As part of the company’s new era of innovation, the Sullair E1035H was unveiled at CONEXPO 2023. This all-new compressor featured many patent-pending elements, including swing-out coolers for easy cleaning and maintenance and condensate management technology, which helps eliminate the need for additional disposal equipment. The compressor was also designed for better user safety and with the Sullair-exclusive Electronic Spiral Valve (ESV), providing superior efficiency.
Features of the electric E425H portable air compressor
The E425H offers 425 CFM at 150 psi of compressed air power for contractors in the rental and construction markets for a wider range of applications.
Also in 2025, Hitachi Global Air Power launched the Sullair OFE1550 oil free electric portable air compressor expanding its electric and proven oil free air power expertise. The OFE1550 delivers 1550 CFM at 125 PSI of Class 0 oil free air — ideal for applications such as oil and gas and as back up plant air in any application where air purity is critical. Like its predecessors, the OFE1550 features easy maintenance, a simple start-up with the Wye-Delta starter, and enhanced safety by keeping electric connections and discharge components away from the operator. It also features a smart auto-lubrication system that automatically delivers the ideal amount of lubrication to the motor, maximizing performance, and protecting against premature wear.
“Innovation for us starts with listening to our customers,” said Hideki Fujimoto, president and CEO of Hitachi Global Air Power. “We’re expanding our portfolio of reliable, durable, and high performing electric portable air compressors to meet a wide range of customer needs. At the same time, we continue to invest in and advance our diesel offerings to ensure we have the right solution for today’s applications and tomorrow’s demands.”
“Our customers are facing rising energy and operating costs and tighter emission and sustainability requirements,” said Jerel Cole, global portable product manager at Hitachi Global Air Power. “Our next-generation electric air compressors were developed to meet real operational demands — delivering the performance and air power our customers expect while helping them to operate more efficiently and responsibly.”
