The FS-Curtis CA7.5 UltraPack Horizontal Air Compressor delivers dependable industrial compressed air performance in a compact, factory-equipped package designed to improve reliability, simplify installation, and reduce maintenance requirements. Producing 23.2 CFM at 175 PSI, this two-stage reciprocating compressor is mounted on a rugged 80-gallon horizontal ASME air receiver and enhanced with the FS-Curtis UltraPack performance upgrade package.
Powered by the legendary E57 two-stage cast-iron pump, the CA7.5 UltraPack is engineered for cooler operation, longer service life, and consistent airflow across automotive shops, woodworking facilities, fabrication environments, maintenance departments, and light manufacturing operations.
The UltraPack configuration transforms a proven compressor platform into a shop-ready compressed air system with built-in protection, automation, and improved moisture management.
What Makes This an UltraPack Compressor?
The UltraPack upgrade package adds the most commonly requested protection and reliability features directly at the factory, eliminating the need for aftermarket accessories while improving air quality and extending compressor service life.
UltraPack enhancements include:
• Air-cooled aftercooler for reduced discharge temperature
• Magnetic motor starter (Simplex configuration)
• Low oil level shutdown protection
• Automatic tank drain
• Tank isolator vibration pads
• Factory oil-filled crankcase
• Dual control capability (start/stop or constant run)
These factory-installed upgrades reduce installation time, improve uptime, and help protect downstream equipment from moisture and unexpected interruptions.
UltraPack models are also eligible for the industry-leading 5-Year UltraShield warranty, providing long-term confidence in demanding shop environments.
Heavy-Duty FS-Curtis E57 Two-Stage Pump
At the heart of the CA7.5 UltraPack is the rugged E57 cast-iron compressor pump, one of the most trusted reciprocating compressor platforms in industrial service.
Pump advantages include:
• All cast-iron construction for durability
• Two-stage compression for efficient 175 PSI operation
• Slower pump speeds for extended service life
• Reduced operating temperatures compared to high-speed compressors
• Precision-machined components for reliability
• Designed for continuous shop-duty cycles
This pump platform delivers steady compressed air performance year after year.
Integrated Aftercooler Improves Air Quality
Compressed air exits the pump hot and moisture-laden. The factory-installed air-cooled aftercooler lowers discharge temperature and removes bulk condensate before air enters your piping system.
Benefits include:
• Reduced moisture entering distribution lines
• Improved pneumatic tool protection
• Better finishing consistency in woodworking and paint environments
• Longer equipment lifespan
• Reduced downstream maintenance requirements
Magnetic Starter with Built-In Motor Protection
The CA7.5 UltraPack includes a factory-mounted magnetic starter control panel, providing:
• Motor overload protection
• Simplified electrical installation
• Reliable compressor startup
• Long-term operational safety
80-Gallon Horizontal ASME Air Receiver
The horizontal receiver configuration provides installation flexibility where vertical clearance is limited while still delivering strong reserve air capacity.
Key advantages include:
• Stable system pressure during peak demand
• Reduced compressor cycling
• Easier placement under shelving or mezzanines
• Ideal fit for service bays and production floors
• Heavy-duty ASME-certified construction
Ideal Applications for the CA7.5 UltraPack
The CA7.5 UltraPack Horizontal is well-suited for:
• Automotive repair facilities
• Woodworking and cabinet shops
• Fabrication environments
• Machine shops
• Maintenance departments
• Light industrial production
It delivers reliable airflow with built-in protection features designed to keep operations running smoothly throughout the workday.
