The FS-Curtis CA10 Duplex Ultra Pack is engineered for demanding automotive, light industrial, and heavy-duty applications where consistent air delivery, minimal downtime, and maximum reliability are essential. This dual-pump duplex system features two 10 HP compressors with a 120-gallon horizontal tank, delivering 68.4 CFM at 175 PSI. The duplex design alternates between pumps during normal operation and runs both when demand spikes, ensuring you always have air while extending pump life through balanced workload distribution. Factory-packaged as an Ultra Pack, this system arrives complete with an air-cooled aftercooler, automatic tank drain, low oil level shutdown, and alternator control panel with magnetic motor starters—delivering exceptional value, enhanced air quality, and reduced maintenance right out of the box.
Built for Real-World Durability
CA Series compressors aren't just built to handle harsh environments—they're designed from the ground up for long-term reliability in the most challenging conditions. Every component is selected based on durability and performance, ensuring your compressor delivers consistent results day after day. Precision-machined components and a commitment to materials meant for real-world working conditions guarantee that this is the most robust reciprocating air compressor in its class, providing higher pressures, better efficiency, and longer life than entry-level models.
The Ultra Pack configuration takes an already outstanding CA Series compressor and equips it with the most commonly needed options and accessories in one complete package. You save money and time by getting everything you need pre-installed, and you gain peace of mind knowing you'll avoid unnecessary downtime from excess water in the tank or damage from low oil levels. Easily pair this unit with a standard refrigerated dryer to stop moisture damage in your air system.
The Most Durable Pump Construction Available
Meticulous material selection ensures long-term reliability you can count on. The E71 three-cylinder pump features 100% cast-iron cylinders and cylinder heads, delivering exceptional strength and heat dissipation. A long-lasting, corrosion-resistant crankshaft and deep-finned cast-iron construction reduce thermal stress for cool, reliable operation. The slow-turning pump design significantly increases pump life by reducing wear, while industrial-grade main roller bearings are precision-fit to support all rotating parts with minimal vibration.

Duplex Design: Redundancy, Efficiency, and Zero Downtime
Duplex compressors are ideal when there are varying demand levels during operation. By alternating demand across two pumps, this duplex system delivers longer pump life through balanced workload distribution. The redundant pumps ensure you'll always have air, completely eliminating maintenance downtime. The included alternator control panel comes mounted with magnetic motor starters and thermal overload protection, automatically managing pump operation.
- Compressors alternate during normal operation for balanced wear
- Both compressors run when system demands for maximum output
- Duplex design reduces electrical cost and eliminates downtime
- 3-position alternator switch for flexible control
- NEMA-1 alternator control panel with magnetic starters and overload protection
- Standard two power source configuration
- Automatic start-stop control for hands-free operation
