Optimising power generation solutions isn’t just about delivering performance outcomes; it’s also about providing the right support to avoid downtime.

Compressed air, filtration and power generation are vital elements in the successful operation of essential utility services, manufacturing facilities, industrial complexes and commercial environments.

As a leading provider of compressed air and power generation solutions across Australia, CAPS has an extensive range of products and brands to provide complete air and power solutions that are suitable for local operating requirements.

Specialised water solutions

Air blowers are vital in aeration processes, air scouring and filter backwashing activities, however providing compressed air to activated sludge basins in wastewater treatment is generally an energy hungry arrangement, requiring both blowers and generators to be optimally sized and selected for the application.

CAPS’ experience and range of positive displacement blowers, multi-stage centrifugal and single-stage centrifugal turbo blowers are ideal for wastewater treatment applications and there is a solution to suit nearly every customer.

As part of its commitment to providing specialised water solutions, CAPS has partnered with industry leading filter manufacturer Bollfilter to deliver its range of automatic, manual, duplex and simplex filters, along with fine filter units and membranes.

Power generation

Industrial, utility and commercial operations are reliant on uninterrupted power supplies. CAPS has proven itself in the delivery of reliable and cost-effective backup power solutions, with the equipment sizes and power outputs that can be customised to meet specific needs and operating environments.

At the heart of every diesel-powered generator, it’s the engine that dictates the reliability and efficiency. This is why CAPS only sources from manufacturers who use the best engines, such as Kubota, Perkins, Isuzu, Volvo, Mitsubishi and Yanmar, each paired with leading alternators and controllers to help ensure operational continuity.

Designed to suit the application

CAPS delivers complete solution designs, developed by its in-house engineering team and supported through its Australian ISO9001 accredited manufacturing facility.

The custom-built systems are perfectly matched to clients’ requirements. This expertise also enables CAPS to integrate new technology into existing installations, enhancing the operational performance and life of equipment and infrastructure.

Local knowledge and support

CAPS joined the Ingersoll Rand family in 2024, expanding its access to the Ingersoll Rand’s global offering of innovative and mission-critical air, fluid, energy and medical technologies that enhance industrial productivity and efficiency.

CAPS has ten branches nationwide and its dedicated team ensures that customers’ operations run smoothly with its 24/7 maintenance and breakdown service.

The national footprint means CAPS is working in the same time zones as its clients and are on hand to support customers through the entire process, from understanding their requirements, offering suggestions and providing advice, to ultimately delivering the solutions they need.

The support continues throughout the equipment’s operational life, with CAPS providing Ingersoll Rand PackageCARE™ plans, giving clients the greatest value for managing their assets by transferring operational risk to Ingersoll Rand.

CAPS can also get clients operational without big capital costs by delivering its competitively priced, turnkey rental solutions. Keeping your operations running smoothly all year round.
