FS-Curtis FML15D97BXS-A9L1XX is a 15 HP two-stage reciprocating industrial air compressor delivering 42.6 SCFM @ 175 PSI on a 120-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230V/1-phase, pressure-lubricated. Part of the FS-Curtis FML series, the D97 pump designation distinguishes this model from the C89 variant while sharing the same 15 HP belt-drive (BXS) configuration and A9L1XX option code for frame/tank/voltage. Pressure lubrication supports extended service intervals in demanding shop environments. Key specifications: 15 HP motor, 42.6 SCFM at 175 PSI maximum, 120-gallon horizontal receiver, 230V single-phase, two-stage, pressure-lubricated. Pricing at approximately $9,454. This model suits fabrication shops and production cells requiring sustained high-pressure flow on single-phase power. Gaps: duty cycle, weight, RPM, distinction between D97 vs C89 pump specs, and OEM datasheet URL not confirmed from primary source.
