Cube Air Compressor for Commercial and Industrial use

The Castair I71CUC2-S is a heavy-duty industrial series air compressor, designed by Castair, a family-owned Minnesota company since 1991, for superior performance in medium to large shop environments, including HVAC service trucks and mobile applications requiring reliable, high-pressure compressed air. Powered by a robust 7.5 HP, single-phase, 208-230V Baldor motor, this compressor delivers 24.8 CFM at 175 PSI, operating at a slow 585 RPM for quiet performance and extended durability. Its two-stage, full cast iron, oil-lubricated pump ensures long-lasting reliability, making it ideal for heavy-duty industrial air compressor tasks in HVAC installation, automotive repair, manufacturing, and mobile service operations.
The 80-gallon vertical ASME-certified, powder-coated tank provides substantial air storage and is built for safety and corrosion resistance, perfect for powering high-demand pneumatic tools used in HVAC service, such as impact wrenches, refrigerant recovery systems, and pneumatic drills. Equipped with advanced intake noise silencers, including automotive-type filter/silencers with paper elements, the I71CUC2-S significantly reduces operational noise, ensuring a quieter workspace in service trucks or job sites while maintaining clean air intake for optimal efficiency. The V-twin cylinder design promotes 360-degree cooling for enhanced performance and longevity, supported by precision steel connecting rods, automotive-type rod insert bearings at the crankshaft, and needle bearings at the wrist pin for superior reliability.

Key features include tapered roller bearings at both ends of the crankshaft for reduced friction, stainless disc and spring valves offering up to 10 times the lifespan of competitor reed valves for easy maintenance, and pistons with four rings for higher efficiency and minimal oil carry-over. The slow RPM and larger bore/stroke design result in cooler, quieter operation, extending pump life in rugged environments. Rigid metal belt guards, copper discharge, and unloader tubes improve durability and heat dissipation, while an easy-to-read oil sight glass simplifies maintenance. A centrifugal unloader ensures load-less startups, and four feet provide stability on service truck beds or shop floors.

Measuring approximately 33" L x 24" W x 72" H and weighing around 595 lbs, the I71CUC2-S is designed for stationary or mobile industrial use, with mounted starters for easy operation. All Castair compressors are built to order, allowing customization for specific needs.
