FS-Curtis FML30C98H2S

FS-Curtis FML30C98H2S is a 30 HP two-stage reciprocating industrial air compressor delivering 97 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 200-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230V single-phase, pressure-lubricated, weighing 2,350 lbs. The H2S suffix denotes horizontal tank orientation with a specific starter package distinct from the H2U control variant. The FML series cast-iron two-stage pump and pressure lubrication system supports extended service life in high-duty intermittent industrial applications: fabrication shops, fleet maintenance, and production air stations. The 200-gallon horizontal receiver provides substantial air reserve for multi-tool operation and demand surge management. 230V single-phase wiring suits shops without three-phase service. Key gaps: exact duty cycle percentage and OEM datasheet URL not confirmed in current record.
