At FARMSUP we believe in equipment that works as hard as you do, especially in the vibrant and evolving construction markets of the region. That’s why we’re excited to highlight the PA450, a heavy-duty portable air compressor designed to deliver serious performance, and tailor-made for demanding job sites like those in Guyana, Suriname or across the Caribbean.

Why the PA450 matters for your business

Here are some of the standout features of the Bobcat PA450 series:

  • Free air delivery: approximately 13.3 m³/min (which equates to roughly 470 CFM) under standard conditions.

  • Rated operating pressure around 10.3 bar (≈150 psi) for the basic model.

  • The “VP” version (PA450VP) offers dual-performance capability: approximately 400-450 CFM at either 150 psi or 200 psi, allowing flexibility for different tools and jobs.

  • Engine: Powered by a robust Cummins 6-cylinder diesel engine (model 6BTA5.9C) rated at about 123 kW in several markets.

  • Compact, durable design for mobile deployment on construction, blasting, utility or drilling sites.

What that means in the field

For a contractor working in Guyana’s booming construction sector, or for clearing and utility-work projects, the PA450 brings real value:

  • One machine, multiple tasks: With dual-pressure capability you can switch between high flow/low pressure and lower flow/higher pressure without needing two separate compressors. That becomes a cost-saver.

  • Versatility across tools: Whether you’re running pneumatic breakers, rock drills, sandblasting equipment, or air-powered wrenches, the PA450 gives you the air volume and pressure to support heavy tools reliably.

  • Reliability in tough environments: Sites here often involve remote access, high humidity, tropical heat, shipping or import delays. Hiring a machine that’s built for rugged usage helps reduce downtime and unexpected costs.

  • Mobility & support: Because the PA450 is trailer-mountable or easily moved, you can deploy it where you need it rather than relying on fixed air infrastructure. This is especially valuable when working in rural, port or remote areas.

  • Investment with outlook: With the pace of infrastructure investment in Guyana — roads, utilities, housing expansions — owning a capable compressor means you’re ready for future work, not just the tasks of today.
