Jenny Single Stage Wheeled Portable Compressors

Jenny Single Stage Wheeled Portable Compressors

The Jenny Single Stage Wheeled Portable Series represents the pinnacle of American-made air compressors. Built for those who view a compressor as a lifetime investment rather than a disposable tool, these units feature the legendary “K,” “G,” and “J” series pumps. These heavy-duty, cast-iron, splash-lubricated pumps are designed to run cooler, last longer, and handle the most demanding jobsites.

The “K” Series (1 HP to 2 HP Electric)

The “K” pump is the gold standard for precision and durability. These models are ideal for finish work, small framing crews, and workshop environments where 120V power is the primary source.

• K1A Models (1 HP): Optimized for low-amp draw and steady performance.
• K15A Models (1.5 HP): The mid-range workhorse for general contracting.
• K2A Models (2 HP): High-output electric power for faster recovery times.

The “G” Series (3 HP to 5 HP Electric)

When you move into the “G” series, you are moving into high-production air. These 230V electric units are designed for shops and sites that require a higher volume of air for tools like impact wrenches, sanders, or multiple nail guns.

• G3A Models (3 HP): Heavy-duty performance with a significant jump in CFM.
• G5A Models (5 HP): The peak of single-stage electric power, delivering maximum air volume on a portable frame.

The “J” Series (5 HP Electric – Large Frame)

Model: J5A-30P

The J5A-30P is in a class of its own. Utilizing the large-bore “J” pump on a 30-gallon tank, this unit is essentially a stationary shop compressor on wheels. It is designed for the most grueling industrial applications where a massive air reserve and high CFM are mandatory.

Engineering Excellence: The Jenny Advantage

• Cast Iron Construction: Every pump features a cast-iron cylinder and crankcase. This “over-built” design ensures the unit can withstand 100% duty cycles and harsh environments.
• Advanced Cooling: Finned intercoolers and a directional air shroud force air over the pump and motor, significantly reducing operating temperatures and moisture buildup.
• Precision Components: Equipped with Swedish steel valves for high volumetric efficiency and a balanced flywheel for vibration-free operation.
• Jobsite Mobility: Each unit is mounted on a rugged frame with heavy-duty tires, designed to navigate through jobsite debris and over thresholds with ease.
• Professional Grade: Every model includes a pressure relief safety valve, high-quality pressure gauges, and a specialty manual unloader for easier starts in cold weather.

Tank Configuration Guide

• 8-Gallon (8P): The most compact wheeled option, perfect for tight spaces and frequent loading.
• 15 & 17-Gallon (15P/17P): The professional’s choice for a balanced mix of air reserve and portability.
• 30-Gallon (30P): Maximum air storage for high-demand tools and larger crews; perfect for a mobile shop setup.
