Description

The FS-Curtis NXV18 compressor is a 25 HP variable-speed (VSD) air-cooled, single-stage, base-mounted (tankless) rotary screw air compressor, built for demanding, continuous-duty industrial air. Rated for 102 CFM at 125 PSI, the NXV18 pairs an exclusive FS-Curtis encapsulated helical twin-screw airend with premium controls and cooling for efficient, reliable shift-after-shift performance.

Backed by more than 170 years of FS-Curtis engineering and a nationwide network of factory-trained service technicians, the NX Series is FS-Curtis' premium rotary screw platform. It is a proven workhorse for manufacturing and assembly, automotive, woodworking, printing, packaging, textiles, laser cutting, and any plant that depends on clean, stable compressed air.

Key Features

DemandSmart variable speed drive: the main motor speed continuously matches output to plant demand, holding pressure within +/-1 PSIG and sharply cutting part-load energy cost compared with load/unload or modulation control.

eCOOL technology: FS-Curtis' exclusive cooling design maximizes airflow through the package, reducing thermal stress and extending the life of motors, bearings, hoses, and seals by up to 30%.

dBA Shield quiet operation: a centrifugal cooling fan, compartmentalized airflow, and thick laminated sound insulation keep the unit quiet enough for installation close to the work area.

Encapsulated helical twin-screw airend: precision-cut rotor profiles maximize efficiency and deliver long, dependable service life.

Premium-efficiency motor: NEMA Premium TEFC (IP55, Class F) motor protects against dust and heat for a long service life under heavy load.

iCommand control: intelligent load / no-load / modulation control with built-in protection and diagnostics; the optional 7-inch iCommand-Touch+ color touchscreen adds trending, graphing, and higher-level communications.

FS-SmartConnect ready: optional IoT monitoring streams live compressor health and energy data to the cloud for around-the-clock visibility.

Full-synthetic lubrication: FSC-Max synthetic fluid on an 8,000-hour change interval with high-efficiency air/oil separation for clean air and long maintenance intervals.

NXGen Extended Warranty: industry-leading coverage of a 10-year airend warranty and 5-year major-components warranty when the machine is registered online and maintained with genuine FS-Curtis parts and FSC-Max lubricants.

FAQ

How much air does the NXV18 deliver?

The NXV18 is rated for 102 CFM at 125 PSI, with full free-air-delivery figures of 112 to 33 / 102 to 33 / 91 to 32 / 80 to 40 CFM at 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 PSI.

What are the advantages of variable speed?

The DemandSmart variable speed drive matches motor speed to your actual air demand, holding plant pressure within +/-1 PSIG and cutting part-load energy use, which is where most compressors waste the most power. It is the best choice for plants with changing or unpredictable air demand.

Does the NXV18 include an air tank?

No. The NXV18 is a base-mounted (tankless) unit that feeds an existing receiver or plant air system. If you need storage, choose the NXV18T tank-mounted unit or the NXV18UP UltraPack, which adds a refrigerated dryer and pre-filter.

What controller does the NX use?

Every NX ships with the iCommand controller. The 7-inch iCommand-Touch+ full-color touchscreen is available as an option, adding real-time trending and graphing, USB data export, and higher-level plant communications.

What warranty is included?

The NXGen Extended Warranty provides a 10-year airend warranty and a 5-year major-components warranty when the unit is registered online and maintained with genuine FS-Curtis parts and FSC-Max lubricants.
