ABAC ABC16-30GV

ABAC ABC16-30GV is a 16 HP gas-engine two-stage splash-lubricated reciprocating air compressor delivering 17.3 SCFM at 175 PSI on an 80-gallon horizontal tank. As a gas-powered unit, it operates independently of electrical infrastructure, targeting remote job sites, agricultural settings, and emergency-service operations. This simplex compressor weighs 605 lbs and is priced at approximately $4,957. The two-stage cast-iron piston pump delivers intermittent-duty performance in outdoor environments. Note: the SCFM-to-HP ratio is lower than typical for this power class; buyers should confirm actual flow output with an ABAC authorized distributor before tool-sizing. Key gaps: confirmed SCFM, RPM, duty-cycle, and OEM primary-source datasheet not yet located.
