Air Compressor Models KA500 through KA4000 are oil-less marine duty air compressor systems including exceptionally quiet, continuous duty pumps, automatic pressure switches, safety valves, gages, and air receivers certified by ASME and the U.S. Coast Guard. ABS Certified air receivers are also available. These compressor systems are designed to be nearly maintenance free. To reduce installation costs, all compressor units are pre-wired and already plumbed to pressure switches. Instant connect plumbing fittings and flexible air tubing are also supplied with each assembly.

Air Strainers such as Model M-99 through M-101 should be installed upstream of operating valves in air supply lines to protect the horn and valve from line debris.

Kahlenberg manufactures several signal controllers such as model M-511C, WT-25700-C and M-485A shown at right.  These controllers automate signaling in restricted visibility for improved safety at sea.  In the case of the M-511C, both light and sound signals can be automated for restricted visibility (USCG Rule 35).  Maneuvering codes (USCG Rule 34), and SOLAS General Alarm Code are also included.  The Model WT-25700-C adds functionality for SOLAS General Alarm integration, control of multiple horn systems, and integration with sound surveillance systems on larger vessels.

The Model M-485A automates the restricted visibility code for motor and sailing vessels underway and stopped.
