The Jenny K1C-30C is a 1-horsepower single-stage piston compressor configured for HVAC climate-control duty on a 30-gallon horizontal tank. It delivers 5.9 CFM at 100 PSI from a cast-iron K-series pump driven by an industrial-grade UL-listed motor with a large flywheel for extra cooling and reliable restart. The K family is single-stage, so its 125 PSI maximum is well below Jenny’s two-stage models, and the climate-control configuration ships with a 75-100 PSI pressure-switch range that matches typical pneumatic-controls duty cycles. Splash lubrication uses Jenny Ultimate Blue oil, factory-filled. The unit is available in single-phase 115V or 230V and three-phase 208V/230V/460V/575V, and a stacked-tank duplex variant exists for redundancy in critical-air applications. Optional equipment includes ASME National Board tank stamp, low oil-level switch, automatic tank drain, magnetic starter, control-circuit transformer, vertical tank orientation, air-line filter, lubricator, aftercooler, and refrigerated dryer. The K1C-30C is built at Jenny’s Somerset, Pennsylvania, plant. Typical applications are commercial-building HVAC zone control, pneumatic damper actuators, and similar low-flow continuous-availability uses.
