Supersedes ATAF8PLUS
The Atlas® MPAF8P is a commercial-grade air compressor built for serious professionals who demand reliability, performance, and longevity. This two-stage, 80-gallon vertical tank compressor is powered by a robust 5HP single-phase motor and delivers 19 CFM at 175 PSI, making it the ideal workhorse for a 3-4 man auto shop or a single-operator facility preparing for future expansion. Engineered with premium components including a cast iron V-cylinder pump, automotive-style ball bearings, and a built-in aftercooler, this unit is designed to deliver flawless performance day after day. The Plus Package elevates this compressor with automatic features that protect your investment and improve air quality: automatic low oil monitor, automatic tank drain, and low oil shut-off—critical features that extend the life of your compressor while delivering cleaner, drier compressed air.
This is the perfect compressor for a small business that depends on their air compressor to deliver flawlessly every business day. The Atlas® Air Force MPAF8P is a powerful, belt-driven reciprocating air compressor designed and built in the USA to offer years of trouble-free service. Whether you're running pneumatic tools, spray guns, lifts, or other demanding equipment, this unit provides consistent, reliable compressed air that professionals can count on.
The Plus Package is what truly sets this compressor apart. By incorporating advanced monitoring and protection systems, it helps ensure your compressor stays running optimally with minimal maintenance. The automatic low oil monitor and shut-off prevent costly damage from low oil conditions, the automatic tank drain removes moisture buildup without manual intervention, and the built-in aftercooler reduces moisture in your compressed air lines—delivering "better air" to your tools and equipment.
At the heart of the MPAF8P is a heavy-duty two-stage V-cylinder pump constructed from cast iron for maximum thermal stability and longevity. The oil-lubricated pump features a one-piece cast iron crankcase and a thermally stable cast iron cylinder body, ensuring durability even under continuous use. An aluminum head with machined cast iron valve plate and durable stainless steel reed valves provide exceptional sealing and efficiency, while automotive-style ball bearings deliver smooth, quiet operation with minimal vibration.
The pump design includes convenient service features like an oil level sight glass for easy monitoring and easily accessible oil fill for quick maintenance. The compressor is shipped with 100% full synthetic air compressor oil for optimum performance and extended service life right out of the box. Ball valves are included for precise control and safety.
