FS-Curtis FML10C79BXA-D9N1S1

The FS-Curtis FML10C79BXA-D9N1S1 is a 10 HP two-stage pressure-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 34.2 SCFM @ 175 PSI on a 120-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230 V single-phase. The FML-Series pressure lubrication system force-feeds oil to bearings and cylinder walls, offering longer service intervals than splash-lubricated alternatives under industrial duty. This 10 HP unit suits body shops, fabrication shops, and production cells with moderate continuous air requirements at 175 PSI. Key specs: 10 HP, 34.2 SCFM @ 175 PSI, 120-gal horizontal tank, 230/1-phase, two-stage pressure lubrication. Gaps: weight, full-load amps, noise level (dB), duty cycle, and OEM datasheet URL not confirmed from a primary FS-Curtis source.
