Atlas® Air Force 15HP 3-Phase 120 Gal Air Compressor #ATEATAF15PLUS

Atlas Air Force AF-15 Plus — 15HP 3-Phase 120 Gallon Compressor

A shop that runs a body department, three bays, and a paint booth all at once doesn't have an air problem — it has a CFM problem, and 10HP compressors lose that math. The Atlas Air Force AF-15 Plus is the industrial answer: 15 horsepower on three-phase power, delivering 52 CFM at 100 PSI (49 at 175) into a 120-gallon ASME tank, with the Plus Package bolted on from the factory.

The Plus Package is the part that keeps a big compressor alive: automatic low-oil shut-off, an aftercooler, an automatic tank drain, and a magnetic starter — plus a heavy-duty belt guard and vibro-isolator pads. It's the compressor for shops whose air demand has outgrown the 10HP class.

Who the Atlas Air Force AF-15 Plus Is Built For

• Industrial and body shops running multiple air tools continuously — 52 CFM at 100 PSI feeds a busy body-and-paint operation where a 10HP unit cycles itself to death.
• Shops with three-phase service — 230VAC 3PH is the AF-15's electrical home; the shop that already has 3-phase panels has the infrastructure this compressor wants.
• Operations adding a paint booth or media blasting — high continuous-CFM consumers that turn a small compressor's duty cycle into a maintenance schedule.
• Shops consolidating from two small compressors into one industrial unit — one 120-gallon tank, one maintenance schedule, one noise source.
• Buyers who want the Plus Package protections — low-oil shut-off, aftercooler, auto tank drain, and magnetic starter are standard here, not add-ons.

What the Atlas Air Force AF-15 Plus Is NOT Built For

This is not for shops without three-phase power — the AF-15 Plus runs on 230VAC 3-phase, and single-phase panels don't feed it. It's also not for light-duty shops whose demand fits a 7.5–10HP unit, and not for noise-sensitive shared spaces without a compressor room (15HP is a real machine).

Important sizing note: confirm three-phase service (230VAC 3PH), measure the floor area (horizontal configuration), and tally your shop's continuous CFM demand before purchase. Questions on fit? Call (817) 865-3707 before ordering — we confirm compatibility, not guesses.

What Makes the Atlas Air Force AF-15 Plus Different

15 horsepower of three-phase capacity

The biggest motor in the Air Force line — 52 CFM delivered at 100 PSI, 49 at 175, across a 145–175 PSI operating range.

• 15 HP, 230VAC 3PH 60Hz
• 52 CFM @ 100 PSI / 49 CFM @ 175 PSI
• 145–175 PSI range

Plus Package standard

Automatic low-oil shut-off, aftercooler, automatic tank drain, and magnetic starter — the longevity kit, factory-fitted.

Built like it's meant to run all day

Heavy-duty extra-large three-cylinder two-stage pump, ASME-certified 120-gallon tank, metal belt guard, and vibro-isolator pads — the construction a full-duty-cycle shop depends on.

Best For

• Industrial / body shops
• High continuous CFM demand
• 3-phase equipped shops
• Multi-bay consolidation

Not Ideal For

• Shops without 3-phase power
• Light-duty shops (7.5–10HP class)
• Unvented shared spaces

Air Force line — where the AF-15 Plus sits

The AF-15 Plus is the ceiling of the line — step down to the 10HP or 7.5HP class when the CFM math says you can.
