Atlas® AF9G — 9 HP (Honda GX270, Electric Start) Air Compressor
Mobile techs and outdoor/job-site work need commercial CFM without depending on shore power — a gas engine means the compressor runs the same whether it's parked in the shop or three states away on a service call.
The Atlas® AF9G is a gas-powered 2-stage reciprocating compressor rated for 9 HP (Honda GX270, Electric Start) with a 30 gallon horizontal tank, built for shops and commercial operations that need compressed air on tap all day without paying for accessories they don’t need.
Who the AF9G Is Built For
- ✅ Field service and roadside repair operations that need a lighter, more compact gas compressor than the 13–14HP AF13G/AF14G models
- ✅ Service trucks with limited bed space where the AF9G's smaller footprint and lighter 267 lb weight matter for mounting
- ✅ Techs running tire equipment and standard pneumatic tools in the field who don't need the higher CFM of the larger gas units
- ✅ Buyers who want the professional-grade features (pneumatic throttle control, head unloaders, charging system) at a lower entry price than the 13HP+ gas models
- ✅ Construction sites and remote job locations without electrical service where moderate, reliable air output is enough for the job
- ✅ Fleet operations standardizing on Honda small-engine equipment for parts and service commonality
What the AF9G Is NOT Built For
- ❌ Heavy-duty field applications needing more than 18 CFM — the 13HP AF13G or 14HP AF14G deliver more airflow for larger tool draw
- ❌ Shop-based operations with standard electrical service already available — an electric AF-series unit delivers more CFM per dollar
- ❌ Indoor, enclosed-space use — like any gas engine, the AF9G needs ventilation and should not run in an unventilated shop bay
What Makes the AF9G Different
Commercial 2-Stage Pump
The AF9G uses a 3-Cylinder, 2-Stage pump built for daily, all-day duty cycles — not a hobby-grade single-stage unit that struggles under continuous shop use.
CFM & Pressure Output
Delivers 18 CFM @ 90 PSI and holds pressure across a 145–175 PSI range, enough headroom to run impact wrenches, tire equipment, and paint tools without the tank running dry.
Plus Package Upgrades
gas-powered unit; includes pneumatic throttle control, head unloaders, and charging system as standard.
Power Requirements
gas-powered, no electrical hookup required.
- Lighter field/mobile service use
- Smaller footprint, 267 lb weight
- Honda GX270 reliability
- Heavy-duty field use needing more CFM — see AF13G/AF14G
- Shop-based use with power available
AF9G vs. FS-Curtis CA13-H (13 HP Honda Gas, 30 Gal Horizontal) — Which Compressor Is Right for Your Shop?
| Decision Point | AF9G | FS-Curtis CA13-H (13 HP Honda Gas, 30 Gal Horizontal) |
|---|---|---|
| Horsepower / Engine | 9 HP, Honda GX270 Electric Start | 13 HP, Honda Gas Drive |
| Tank | 30 Gallon Horizontal | 30 Gallon Horizontal |
| CFM @ 175 PSI | 14.5 CFM | 22 CFM (E57 pump) |
| Best fit | Lighter-duty field use, smaller footprint | Higher HP field use needing more CFM |
Choose the AF9G for a lighter, more compact gas unit at a lower entry price when 18 CFM covers your field needs. Choose the FS-Curtis CA13-H (or Atlas's own AF13G) if your field work needs more horsepower and CFM headroom. Both stay inside Alamo’s catalog — call (844) 480-6059.
