The FS-Curtis CA10 Simplex is engineered for professionals who demand reliability, durability, and performance in demanding environments. Delivering 34.2 CFM at 175 PSI from its 10HP three-cylinder E71 pump, this horizontal air compressor is built for automotive, light industrial, and heavy-duty applications where failure is not an option. With a 120-gallon ASME-certified horizontal tank, precision-machined cast-iron components, and industrial-grade construction throughout, the CA10 stands apart as the most robust reciprocating air compressor in its class. Available in three three-phase voltage configurations (200-208V, 230V, and 460V), this compressor ships factory oil-filled with a magnetic motor starter, ready to deliver years of continuous, dependable performance.
Built for Harsh Environments – Unmatched Durability and Performance
CA Series compressors aren't just built to handle harsh environments — they're 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, making the CA Series ready to handle the most rugged, heavy-duty applications.
The Most Durable Pump Construction Available
Meticulous material selection ensures long-term reliability. The E71 pump features components engineered for decades of service:
- 100% cast-iron cylinders and cylinder heads – superior strength and heat dissipation compared to aluminum alternatives
- Long-lasting, corrosion-resistant crankshaft – precision-balanced for smooth, reliable operation
- Deep-finned cast-iron cylinders and cylinder head for cool operation – reduces thermal stress for increased reliability
