AC500 is an undersized compressor that provides a stable source of air for airbrushing along with a wide range of working pressure adjustment. The compressor is quiet, so it can be used in an apartment. The filter and dehydrator integrated into the pressure regulator ensures effective dehumidification of the air that will go to the airbrush. The device has a 2.5-liter air tank, which reduces the operating time of the device extending its life. Two cylinders significantly speed up the filling and refilling of air in the tank. In addition, it is possible to work if the tank is filled and the compressor is turned off - until all the stored air is used up. The compressor is equipped with an automatic pressure switch, which turns off the device when the pressure in the air tank reaches about 4 bar and turns it on when this pressure drops to 2.7 bar. There is a second pressure gauge on the tank, showing the pressure status according to which you can estimate the current filling of the cylinder. In addition, the compressor has protection against overheating. The device has two air outlets - each on a standard 1/8" thread, which makes it possible to connect two airbrushes at once using two hoses. In order to hook up a second airbrush, you must first unscrew the cap from the second outlet. The rigid metal housing has a comfortable handle for carrying the unit, and makes it easy to fit and set it up in the workshop or apartment ensuring that all components are protected. It also has two airbrush hangers on the top plate of the housing. The compressor comes with two 3m hoses, as well as 3 adapters for airbrushes from Paasche, Badger and Aztek threads to 1/8" threads.

Sparmax, founded in 1978 in Taiwan, is a company that was one of the first to develop oil-free compressors for hobbyist airbrush use

Since then, its business has been continuously developed, resulting in a wide range of high-quality modeling compressors, as well as rugged and very high quality airbrushes along with their accessories. Since 2018, it has been part of the Anest Iwata group.
