FS-Curtis ML30-D — 30 HP (x2, Duplex) Air Compressor

The largest industrial plants running heavy pneumatic tooling across an entire facility can't afford a single-pump failure to shut down every station at once — a second independent 30 HP pump is the difference between a maintenance call and a full production stoppage.

The FS-Curtis ML30-D is a duplex two-stage reciprocating compressor rated for 30 HP (x2, Duplex) with a 240 gallon horizontal ASME tank, built to keep shops and commercial operations running on compressed air all day, in a lean base configuration that skips the extras.

Who the ML30-D Is Built For

  • ✅ The largest industrial or manufacturing facilities running heavy pneumatic tooling across the entire plant, where a single-pump failure would stop every station at once
  • ✅ An operation with the highest continuous-draw demand in the ML line (204.4 CFM combined) that a single 30 HP pump can't sustain alone
  • ✅ A facility that can service one pump during a shift without shutting down air to the rest of the plant
  • ✅ A facility engineer who's priced out the Ultra Pack duplex and decided the base configuration's lower cost is the better fit for now
  • ✅ The flagship or highest-demand location in a multi-plant operation standardizing on FS-Curtis's ML30 tier

What the ML30-D Is NOT Built For

  • ❌ Smaller or mid-size facilities where a simplex ML30-SH or HUP already covers the air draw
  • ❌ Shops wanting factory auto-drain/dryer accessories standard — the Ultra Pack (ML30-DUP) adds those, this base unit doesn't
  • ❌ Facilities with limited floor space — the 240-gallon duplex tank has the largest footprint in the ML line

What Makes the ML30-D Different

Commercial 2-Stage Pump

The ML30-D uses a C98 (x2), Cast-Iron, Two-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

Rated for 204.4 CFM @ 175 PSI at pressure up to 175 PSI, with enough reserve to run impact wrenches, tire equipment, and paint tools without losing pressure mid-job.

Power Requirements

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

✅ Best For
  • Built-in pump redundancy
  • 204.4 CFM — highest in the ML line
  • Largest industrial facilities
❌ Not Ideal For
  • Smaller facilities covered by simplex
  • Tight floor space

ML30-D vs. FS-Curtis ML30-SH (30 HP, Simplex) — Which Compressor Is Right for Your Shop?

Decision Point ML30-D FS-Curtis ML30-SH (30 HP, Simplex)
Horsepower / Tank 30 HP x2 / 240 Gal Horizontal 30 HP / 200 Gal Horizontal
CFM @ 175 PSI 204.4 CFM combined 102.2 CFM
Redundancy Duplex — two independent pumps, built-in backup Simplex — single pump, no built-in redundancy
Best fit Facilities that can't tolerate a compressor going down Facilities where redundancy isn't a hard requirement

Choose the ML30-D when a compressor failure stopping the entire plant is not an option. Choose the ML30-SH for a simpler, lower-cost setup if redundancy isn't required. Both stay inside Alamo’s catalog — call (844) 480-6059.

Frequently Asked Questions — FS-Curtis ML30-D

What does 'Duplex' mean on the ML30-D?

Duplex means two independent 30 HP compressor pumps share one 240-gallon tank. If one pump needs maintenance or fails, the second pump keeps supplying air — built-in redundancy a single-pump (simplex) unit doesn't have.

What electrical does the ML30-D need?

This unit is three-phase only (200-208V, 230V, or 460V). Given the combined draw of two 30 HP pumps, have an electrician confirm your panel capacity before ordering.

How much floor space does the ML30-D need?

The ML30-D measures 95" L x 46" W x 73" H and weighs 3,850 lbs — confirm your floor/dock can receive the weight.

What's the warranty on the ML30-D?

FS-Curtis backs the ML30-D with a 12-month standard manufacturer's warranty covering both pumps. Alamo handles warranty service locally — call (844) 480-6059.

Why Buy the ML30-D from Alamo Equipment & Service?
