Atlas – other models: a collector page for the portable compressors from construction-equipment maker Atlas Copco, 42 versions in the XAS and MS series, unladen weight 230 to 5,700 kg
This page gathers Atlas models the register could not assign to a named series. Model names such as XAS 45, XAS 65, XAS 85 D and MS 130 belong to Atlas Copco's portable site compressors; XAS denotes the diesel-driven series, with the number giving an approximate delivery rate in cubic feet per minute. The units are mounted on single-axle trailer chassis and towed to site behind a car or van.

The register lists 42 versions with unladen weights from 230 to 5,700 kg and gross weights from 850 to 5,700 kg. Widths range from 1,300 to 2,480 mm.
Portable compressors of this kind supply construction sites with compressed air for breakers, sandblasting equipment and drilling tools; in the largest versions the unladen weight already matches the gross weight, since almost no extra payload is allowed for. Atlas Copco competes in this segment with Kaeser, Doosan Portable Power and Sullair. Mid-range compressors are also common with municipal works departments for sewer flushing and groundwork.
When buying used, check the diesel engine's running hours, the condition of the compressor block and oil cooling, the tightness of the compressed-air hoses, and the chassis drawbar and brakes; parts and service run through the Atlas Copco dealer network. Corroded air outlet couplings are a common wear point on yard-stored units.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
