FS-Curtis FML20C89BXA-D9N1S1

The FS-Curtis FML20C89BXA-D9N1S1 is a 20 HP two-stage pressure-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 67 SCFM @ 175 PSI on a 240-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230 V single-phase. The FML-Series uses pressure (force-fed) lubrication for extended bearing life under sustained industrial loads, differentiating it from splash-lubricated alternatives. This 20 HP configuration suits medium-scale production facilities, tire service operations, and auto body shops with high continuous air demand. Key specs: 20 HP, 67 SCFM @ 175 PSI, 240-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.
