FS-Curtis CA7.5 80G 7.5HP Vertical Simplex Air Compressor #CA7.5-V

FS-Curtis CA7.5-V — 7.5 HP Air Compressor

A shop that's outgrown its 5 HP compressor — running the tank down faster than it recovers when two or three techs pull air at once — needs the extra headroom of a 7.5 HP pump before the undersized unit becomes the bottleneck holding back billable work.

The FS-Curtis CA7.5-V is a two-stage reciprocating compressor rated for 7.5 HP with an 80 gallon vertical ASME 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 CA7.5-V Is Built For

• ✅ A shop that's watched its 5 HP compressor's tank empty faster than it recovers when two techs run impact wrenches at once, and needs the extra headroom before that becomes the daily bottleneck
• ✅ A multi-tech operation running 2-3 air tools simultaneously during a busy shift where waiting on air means a tech standing around instead of billing hours
• ✅ An owner who's outgrown the CA5/CA5+ line's output but doesn't yet need the cost and footprint of a full duplex setup
• ✅ A shop with a narrow bay or tight wall space where the vertical tank's smaller footprint still matters even at the higher 7.5 HP tier
• ✅ A general repair or commercial shop standardizing on FS-Curtis's CA Series and stepping up a tier as its air demand has grown past what a 5 HP unit can reliably support

What the CA7.5-V Is NOT Built For

• ❌ Single-bay or home garage use — a 5 HP or smaller portable unit is more cost-effective for lighter demand
• ❌ Shops needing more than roughly 23-24 CFM continuous or wanting redundancy — look at a duplex configuration instead
• ❌ Budget-first buyers who don't yet need the extra HP over a 5 HP CA5/CA5+ unit

What Makes the CA7.5-V Different

Commercial 2-Stage Pump

The CA7.5-V uses an E57, Cast-Iron, Two-Stage, 2-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 23.2 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.

Power Requirements

Single or Three-Phase, 230V/460V options available. Confirm your panel and breaker sizing with an electrician before delivery.
