The FS-Curtis NxB22 delivers the reliability and performance of industrial rotary screw technology in a compact, base-mounted package designed for automotive shops, light manufacturing, and demanding continuous-duty applications. Powered by a robust 30 HP motor (22 kW), this American-made compressor provides steady, pulsation-free air with outputs ranging from 95 to 134 CFM depending on pressure configuration. With 100% continuous-duty operation, exceptional energy efficiency, and whisper-quiet performance at just 72 dBA, the NxB22 is engineered to work as hard as you do—without the noise, vibration, or oil carryover common in reciprocating units.
Available in multiple voltage and pressure configurations—230V or 460V, and 100, 125, 150, or 175 PSI—the NxB22 can be tailored to your facility's exact compressed air requirements. Choose the standard base unit with iCommand Basic controller, or upgrade to a model with an integrated dryer for superior air quality right out of the box. Every unit ships factory-filled with FSC-8000 synthetic lubricant, includes a Premium Efficiency TEFC motor, and features FS-Curtis' exclusive eCool® Technology to extend component life and reduce thermal stress.
Why Choose the FS-Curtis NxB22?
Stable air pressure, steady airflow, and quieter continuous-duty operation are just a few of the advantages you get with FS-Curtis rotary screw compressors. These smart, compact units also offer better air quality with less oil carryover than reciprocating models—just 1–3 PPM thanks to the spin-on air/oil separator. Intuitive controls and diagnostics make them easy to use and service, too. It all adds up to an extremely reliable machine that can run 100% continuous duty, delivering more airflow and better efficiency in a space-saving design—making the Nx Series ideal for automotive, light industrial, and other applications that require reliable performance in demanding conditions.
Compact in design, robust in power, the Nx's smooth, quiet operation is ideal for a wide variety of applications ranging from auto body shops to light industrial facilities.
Designed for Quiet Operation
When noise matters, the NxB22 delivers. At just 72 dBA during operation, this compressor can be installed in noise-sensitive environments without disrupting your workspace.
- Integration of centrifugal blower and drive motors make for extremely smooth and quiet operation
- Extra-thick laminated sound insulation reduces operational noise
- Washable cabinet pre-filtration panels keep cooling airflow clean and efficient
- Can be installed in applications where a quiet setting is critical to the work environment
eCool® Technology – A Cool Innovation
Compressors generate heat. FS-Curtis' exclusive eCool® technology provides protection from heat and reduces thermal stress on critical components.
By combining smart compressor layout with intelligent component selection, eCool® technology maximizes cooling airflow for greater energy efficiency, improved reliability, and increases service life up to 50% longer for motors and electrical components and up to 30–50% longer for bearings, hoses, and seals.
The ultimate in system protection and reliability:
- Protects critical components from compressor-generated heat
- Extends component life and reduces downtime
- Compartmentalized airflow design and standard air-cooled oil cooler & aftercooler
Quality Components – Built for Dependability
The NxB22 is built to the highest levels of reliability using premium-grade components designed for extended service life and minimal maintenance.
- Premium Efficiency TEFC (IP55) motor protects the compressor from surrounding dirty air, increasing efficiency and prolonging motor life
- Spin-on air/oil separator allows for quick maintenance and results in 1–3 PPM oil carryover, translating into lower make-up oil costs and higher quality compressed air
- Spin-on oil filter for fast, hassle-free servicing
- Multi-function oil valve for reliable lubrication control
- Built-in heavy-duty air intake filter protects the airend from contaminants
- Leak-free design with heavy-duty piping and O-ring seals
