The FS-Curtis FE23AB is a 3 HP two-stage splash-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 11.3 SCFM @ 175 PSI on an 80-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230 V single-phase. The FE-Series AB variant is engineered for intermittent-duty shop applications including auto service bays, fabrication shops, and body-work stations where higher pressure (up to 175 PSI) is needed for spray finishing and air tools. Two-stage cast-iron piston construction extends service life under repeated load cycles. Weight: 67 lbs. Key specs: 3 HP, 11.3 SCFM @ 175 PSI, 80-gal horizontal tank, 230/1-phase, splash lubrication, two-stage. Gaps: full-load amps, noise level (dB), and OEM datasheet URL not yet confirmed from a FS-Curtis primary source; duty cycle percentage unverified.
