The Peerless P17 Diesel uses a distinctive floating top plate that is not hard welded to the tank, which helps absorb vibration from the engine and pump, reduces metal stress on the air receiver and lessens the load transferred to the mount. It also lets the operator separate the tank from the top plate on a vehicle build at no additional cost, so the pump can be positioned lower for a better centre of gravity. It is driven by a Yanmar L48 diesel engine, chosen for its wide use across Australia and its quieter running, and delivers 350 litres per minute of free air delivery. A skid foot version is also available.
Key start is the only option in the diesel range, and the Conrader idle control valve throttles the engine up and down with air demand, venting excess air when it is not needed. Every Peerless diesel build comes with a suitable water trap filter regulator fitted for 0 to 145PSI or 0 to 175PSI operation, and each machine is run and tested before delivery. Custom builds are available, including a lift pump fuel feed, an MDG15 mine compliant retro box and wiring loom extensions. Electric start engines do not come with a battery, leads or battery provisions. Performance of the belt driven range is rated to AS4637.
