FS-Curtis CA5+ UltraPack Vertical – 5 HP Two-Stage Reciprocating Air Compressor
18.5 CFM @ 175 PSI | 80-Gallon Vertical Tank | Fully Packaged UltraPack System
The FS-Curtis CA5+ UltraPack Vertical is a factory-engineered compressed air system designed for shops that want industrial reliability with simplified installation and improved air quality right out of the crate. Delivering 18.5 CFM at 175 PSI, this 5 HP two-stage compressor is built around the legendary E57 cast-iron pump and arrives as a complete, enclosed, installation-ready compressed air package.
Unlike standard simplex compressors, the UltraPack version includes integrated cooling, protection, moisture management, and vibration control upgrades that extend equipment life and improve downstream air performance.
The vertical 80-gallon receiver maximizes airflow storage while minimizing floor space requirements, making this unit ideal for tight mechanical areas and production environments.
What Makes the CA5+ an UltraPack?
The UltraPack transforms a traditional reciprocating compressor into a complete compressed air workstation by adding factory-installed performance and protection components:
Air-Cooled Aftercooler
Removes heat and moisture immediately after compression, improving air quality and reducing downstream water problems.
Automatic Tank Drain
Eliminates manual condensate draining and prevents receiver corrosion caused by standing moisture.
Low Oil Level Shutdown Protection
Automatically protects the compressor pump from damage due to improper lubrication conditions.
Tank Isolator Pads
Reduce vibration transfer into the floor and surrounding structure for quieter operation and longer component life.
Factory-Mounted Magnetic Starter Panel
Provides reliable motor protection and simplified installation.
Integrated System Layout
Receiver, pump, cooling, protection devices, and controls arrive factory-assembled for faster startup and reduced install cost.
Instead of assembling accessories piece by piece in the field, UltraPack delivers them pre-engineered as one coordinated system.
Built Around the Legendary E57 Two-Stage Pump
At the core of the CA5+ UltraPack Vertical is the slow-running E57 cast-iron compressor pump, engineered for durability under real shop conditions.
Industrial pump features include:
- 100% cast-iron cylinders and heads
- Deep-finned cooling surfaces for lower operating temperatures
- Heavy-duty stainless-steel valve system
- Precision roller main bearings
- Corrosion-resistant crankshaft
- High-efficiency intercooler
- Metal intake filter/silencer
- OSHA-approved enclosed belt guard
- Factory oil-filled crankcase
This architecture delivers consistent 175 PSI output with extended maintenance intervals.
