FS-Curtis CA15-HUP — 15 HP Air Compressor
The highest single-pump horsepower in the CA line shouldn't mean giving up the factory-installed air-quality accessories that keep a demanding shop running without someone manually draining tanks.
The FS-Curtis CA15-HUP is a two-stage reciprocating, ultra pack compressor rated for 15 HP with a 120 gallon horizontal ASME tank, built for multi-bay shops and commercial operations that need compressed air on tap all day. The included Ultra Pack — factory-installed automatic tank drain and refrigerated air dryer — cuts down on the maintenance routine so your team spends less time babysitting the compressor and more time on paying work.
Who the CA15-HUP Is Built For
- ✅ A high-demand shop that's maxed out a 10 HP compressor and wants the top single-pump horsepower with factory air-quality accessories included
- ✅ A paint or finishing shop stepping up to 15 HP that needs the refrigerated dryer scaled up with the rest of the system to avoid moisture-related job quality issues
- ✅ An owner who's calculated that the CA15-H's simplicity plus Ultra Pack accessories beats a duplex setup for their specific demand profile
- ✅ A shop standardizing on FS-Curtis's Ultra Pack tier and choosing the highest single-pump HP available in that lineup
- ✅ A multi-bay operation running heavy simultaneous tool use where both output and air quality directly affect job outcomes
What the CA15-HUP Is NOT Built For
- ❌ Budget-conscious buyers who don't need the extra accessories yet — the base CA15-H saves real money
- ❌ Shops needing built-in redundancy — consider the CA10-DUP duplex instead
- ❌ Three-phase-only electrical — no single-phase option at this HP tier
What Makes the CA15-HUP Different
Commercial 2-Stage Pump
The CA15-HUP uses an E15, Cast-Iron, Two-Stage, 3-Cylinder 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 42.6 CFM @ 175 PSI and holds pressure up to 175 PSI, enough headroom to run impact wrenches, tire equipment, and paint tools without the tank running dry.
Ultra Pack Upgrades
Includes factory-installed automatic tank drain and refrigerated air dryer — upgrades that reduce maintenance and extend the life of the tank and pump versus a base-model compressor.
Power Requirements
Three-Phase, 230V/460V options available. Confirm your panel and breaker sizing with an electrician before delivery.
- Highest single-pump HP + accessories
- Paint/finishing shops
- No manual tank-drain hassle
- Budget-first buyers
- Shops needing redundancy
