TEST RESULTS
Design features: АНТ-686L relates to the family of air pump compressors and is an all purpose machine. And it's sure not intendend just to sit in the trunk of your car. BERKUT is like a hard-working horse, becoming handy for those of us who spend a lot of time on the roads in different conditions, looking for adventures or participating in extreme sports. АНТ-686L will be there for you to rapidly pump pneumatic catamaran, or boat, and will raise the pressure even in a badly pierced tire. It's a powerful aid for painting or any anti-corrosion jobs as the productivity of this compressor is simply unbelivable - 72 liters per minute.
No, this is not for the old cranky lemons. Compressor AHT-686L is characterized by sufficiently large mass and size. For the carrying bag there is a large convenient strap, with a soft, pleasant foam-filled cushing, which will protect hands from cold metal during cold weather. There are three special nozzles in the complete set for the scavenging and pumpings of boats, mattresses, balls, etc. The waterproof carrying and storage bag for the pump is very handsome; it is characterized by capacity and manufacturing quality; with an additional and sufficiently spacious pocket which is intended for storing the complete equipment set. The length of the hose-extention (7,5 meters) with a manometer will make it possible to work from a sufficiently large distance from the compressor. The drain valve "deflator" adds the convenience of choosing necessary pressure. The special filter, installed on the air duct, significaly prolongs the period of the compressor service.
Convenience of use and safety: Compressor is connected directly to the accumulator with clamps. It is recommended to keep the engine running to prevent discharge of storage battery. BERKUT is equipped with automatic overheating protection at the continuous operation. And there is a 40A safety fuse to protect from a short circuit, located in the capsule on the supply lead.
Productivity: among all compressors BERKUT АНТ-686L is number one for productivity and maximum pressure. Test tire 185/65 R14 was pumped to two atmospheres in one minute. Three and one-half of the atmosphere
on the manometer was achieved in three minutes of work - no question. But it's nothing in comparison with the capability of BERKUT АНТ-686L to ensure maximum pressure of 12 (!) Atm.
It should be noted that BERKUT АНТ-686L has the longest non-stop running cycle of 40 minutes at an ambient temperature of 23 degree Celsius. Gratifying is the fact that while having this wild productivity, it doesn't make alot of noise but has a somewhat of mute sound.
Price: $215.
RESUME
Merits: high productivity, multi-purpose, and maximum pressure; long pumping
hose.
Deficiencies: higher cost.
General estimation: the pump,first of all, is severe-duty, mostly useable
for trucks, microbuses,and finally - seriously heavy jeeps. That's understandable with 12 atmospheres of maximum permissible pressure,
developed by the compressor. Productivity will be sufficient even to the most inveterate Jeep driver. Under the conditions of the rural roads, where
hard-surfaced pavement alternates with the swampy impassable road, in order to maintain the passability continually, it is necessary to change the
pressure in the tires. Under the conditions of heavy impassable roads, the compressor manages its task with no problem; on the impassable road, the only competition for BERKUT might be the centralized air pumping system. BERKUT is highly recommended, also for work that's
paired with spray-paint jobs. Briefly, BERKUT АНТ-686L is a very dependable machine and all of its possibilities are well matched with the price.
