CBS XV 20 HP Duplex Piston Compressor (Discontinued)
The CBS XV Duplex 20 HP compressor uses a dual pump head configuration with 2× XV-531 mounted on a 264-gallon horizontal tank, delivering 80 CFM at 175 psi. Designed for industrial workshops, and plants with multiple pneumatic stations operating simultaneously.
The duplex configuration distributes the workload between both pump heads, allowing alternating or simultaneous operation to maintain constant pressure. The low 550 RPM extends component life and reduces noise levels.
Performance features
- Duplex Configuration 2× XV-531: Two cast iron pump heads operating together on a shared 264-gallon tank. Allows alternating operation for even wear distribution.
- Low RPM (550): Reduced-speed operation for less mechanical wear, longer service life, and lower noise levels compared to high-speed units.
- NEMA Premium 20 HP Motor: High-efficiency three-phase electric motor (220V/440V · 60 Hz) with integrated thermal protection.
- Belt drive: Independent pulley and belt system for each pump head, reducing vibration and simplifying maintenance.
- Cast iron pump heads: Nodular iron crankshaft, high-strength aluminum pistons and connecting rods, conical high-load bearings, and imported steel reed valves.
- Horizontal tank 264 gal: NOM-020-STPS compliant, with 175 psig safety valves, check valves, manual drain, and ball valve outlets.
- Tiered warranty: 2 years on pump heads, 1 year on motor, and 1 year on accessories — factory-direct.
Discontinuation notice
This model has been discontinued. For industrial applications in this airflow range, we recommend CBS XV Custom rotary screw compressors, which offer greater energy efficiency, lower maintenance, continuous operation, and significantly lower noise levels.
