Gardner Denver announced the availability of a new Hydraulic Trunk accessory for its widely adopted GD70 oil-lubricated, piston air compressor. This new offering allows customers to purchase the GD70 preassembled with a hydraulic trunk, enabling hydraulic drive capability for liquid bulk off-loading applications.
The one-piece, cast-iron trunk is engineered for durability and ease of use, featuring a removable guard with air ventilation openings, an SAE “A” 2-bolt flange and optional coupler configurations. Developed in close collaboration with Gardner Denver’s distributor partners, the hydraulic trunk is designed to simplify installation, improve maintenance access, and support more efficient operations.
“The GD70 Hydraulic Trunk is a game-changer for operators in the liquid bulk transport industry,” said Carl Kruthoff, Product Manager, Gardner Denver Transport. “It combines rugged construction with thoughtful design to simplify maintenance and improve operational efficiency.”
The GD70 air compressor, originally launched in 2021, is a two-cylinder, single-stage, oil-lubricated, piston compressor designed for pressure off-loading of bulk liquids such as solvents and resins. Its in-line design offers a compact footprint, allowing room for additional equipment on mobile units. The GD70 continues to be available as a standalone unit or with the new hydraulic trunk preassembled.
