FS-Curtis FML25C98BXA-D9N1S1

The FS-Curtis FML25C98BXA-D9N1S1 is a 25 HP two-stage pressure-lubricated reciprocating piston air compressor delivering 84 SCFM @ 175 PSI on a 240-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230 V single-phase. The FML-Series uses pressure lubrication (force-fed oil) rather than splash lubrication, extending bearing life under sustained high-load industrial duty cycles. Suited for body shops, larger fabrication facilities, and production lines requiring high-volume 175 PSI air continuously. Key specs: 25 HP, 84 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.
