GPS tracking for fleets and assets, nationwide and worldwide

GPS Tracking for Air Compressors on Job Sites

Korvatrack trackers help contractors and rental yards find towable air compressors, monitor where they work, and deter unauthorized moves.

Why track air compressors with GPS

Towable air compressors spend their days at demolition, paving, utility, and industrial maintenance sites, and many end up scattered across a company's active projects with little visibility. GPS tracking for air compressors lets managers see each unit on a map, which shortens the search when a crew requests one and reduces the cost of a machine that goes missing. Owners gain a clear view.

Korvatrack offers battery-powered trackers that attach to the compressor or its trailer without wiring, plus hard-wired options where an engine electrical system is available. Geofences, movement alerts, and engine-hour maintenance reminders help owners keep machines productive. Fleet managers, dispatchers, and yard staff all work from the same platform. Rental firms, utility contractors, and demolition crews can all manage compressors from a single account, with roles controlling who sees what.

The right tracker for air compressors

A battery-powered tracker bolts or straps onto the compressor frame or trailer, hidden from view, and works independently of the engine's electrical system.

What owners use it for

  • Matching machines to crews

    A live map of compressors across active jobs helps dispatchers reassign nearby units quickly, rather than hauling a machine from the yard when one sits idle close by.

  • Theft deterrence at sites

    Geofence and after-hours movement alerts tell owners when a compressor is being towed from its site, giving a chance to respond while the unit is still nearby.

  • Hours-based service reminders

    Engine-hour and date reminders keep filters, oil changes, and inspections on schedule, protecting a machine that crews often run hard at remote locations. Crews avoid surprise stoppages.

  • Rental return checks

    Trip history and geofence records show when a compressor arrived at and departed from a customer site, which supports accurate rental billing and return confirmation.

Alerts that matter for air compressors

Choose the events you want to hear about and who should be told. Alerts arrive as push notifications in the mobile apps and by email, and each one is logged in the platform.

How alerts work
  • Movement detected outside geofence
  • After-hours movement alert
  • Unplug or tamper notification
  • Maintenance due by engine hours
  • Low battery warning on tracker

Frequently asked questions

Can Korvatrack track a trailer-mounted air compressor?

Yes. Attach a battery-powered tracker to the compressor frame or trailer, or use a hard-wired unit if the engine system offers a suitable power source. Either type reports location, movement, and alerts to the same web and mobile platform. Both reach one platform.

Does the tracker need to connect to the compressor's engine?

No. A battery-powered tracker operates on its own power, so installation is a matter of mounting it securely. Hard-wired trackers do connect to a power source and can add ignition-based alerts and engine-hour reminders. Hard-wired units add engine-hour tracking and ignition alerts.

Can contractors share a compressor's location with a customer?

Shareable location links let owners give a customer or partner a view of a specific asset without granting account access. Links can support deliveries and return coordination, while user roles keep internal data restricted to the right people. Access stays controlled.
