The FS-Curtis CA10 Duplex Air Compressor is engineered for automotive shops, light industrial facilities, and demanding environments where uptime is critical. This 10 HP duplex system features two 3-cylinder E71 pumps mounted on a robust 120-gallon ASME air receiver, delivering 68.4 CFM at 175 PSI. Available in multiple three-phase voltages (200-208V, 230V, or 460V), this compressor combines industrial-grade construction with intelligent alternating control for maximum reliability and efficiency.
Why Choose the CA10 Duplex?
Duplex compressors are ideal when there are varying demand levels during operation. By alternating demand across two pumps, a duplex compressor also delivers longer pump life. The redundant pumps ensure you'll always have air, eliminating maintenance downtime.
The CA Series isn't just built to handle harsh environments — it's also available in a wide range of configurations to meet your exact application. You'll get the rugged construction you desire in the configuration you need.
For automotive, light industrial and other challenging applications, CA Series compressors are built to last. Components are selected based on durability and performance, ensuring that your CA Series compressor delivers reliable performance in demanding applications. Precision-machined components and a dedication to materials of construction that are meant for real world working conditions further assure long-term durability. Industrial Design delivers the most robust air compressor in its class, providing higher pressures, better efficiency, and longer life than entry level models, and making the CA Series ready to handle the most rugged, heavy-duty applications.
Intelligent Duplex Control System
The alternator control panel comes mounted with magnetic motor starters and thermal overload protection, ensuring safe and efficient operation:
- Compressors alternate during normal operation to balance wear and extend service life
- Both compressors run when system demands for maximum air delivery during peak usage
- Duplex design reduces electrical cost and eliminates downtime
- 3-position alternator switch gives you manual control when needed
- NEMA-1 alternator control panel with standard two power source configuration
- Automatic Start-Stop control for hands-free operation
- Premium Efficiency Motors (three-phase) reduce operating costs
Most Durable Pump Construction Available
Meticulous material selection ensures long-term reliability in the harshest environments:
- 100% cast-iron cylinders and cylinder heads for maximum durability
- Long-lasting, corrosion-resistant crankshaft engineered for continuous operation
- Deep-finned cast-iron cylinders and cylinder head for cool operation and reduced thermal stress
- Slow-turning pump increases pump life and reduces maintenance intervals
- Splash lubricated design ensures consistent internal lubrication
- Slow V-belt drive minimizes vibration and wear
Industrial Design – The Most Robust Reciprocating Air Compressor In Its Class
The CA10 Duplex provides higher pressures, better efficiency and longer life than entry-level models, making it ready to handle rugged, heavy-duty applications day after day.
