The FS-Curtis FCA05E50H8S-A2L1XX is a 5 HP two-stage splash-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 18.5 SCFM @ 175 PSI on an 80-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230 V single-phase. The FCA-Series H8S-suffix configuration is a simplex single-pump unit on a horizontal tank, contrasting with the duplex D1S variant on a 120-gallon tank. Suited for intermittent shop-duty applications in auto service bays, tire centers, and light fabrication environments requiring 175 PSI capability. Key specs: 5 HP, 18.5 SCFM @ 175 PSI, 80-gal horizontal tank, 230/1-phase, two-stage splash lubrication, simplex. Gaps: weight, full-load amps, noise level (dB), duty cycle, and OEM datasheet URL not confirmed from a primary FS-Curtis source.
