CPI Series 15-30 HP
Built to outperform – the CPI 15–30 HP series combines compact design with exceptional air delivery.
Unlike most compressors in this range, which are typically belt-driven, the CPI series features a rugged gear-driven transmission that ensures minimal losses and maximum efficiency. With the highest Free Air Delivery (FAD) in its class, it’s the smart upgrade for industries that demand more air without increasing energy costs — all in a clean, compact, and easy-to-maintain package.
The CPI Series 15-30 HP strikes the perfect balance between power and versatility, ideal for medium-sized industries and multi-bay workshops. It features a gear drive system and supports base-mounted or floor-mounted mounting, offering both performance and flexibility. Operating up to 7.5, 8.5, 10, 13 bar, it suits 2-shift operations and small-scale manufacturing.
