The Atlas Air Force AF10 is a 10 HP, two-stage commercial air compressor built around a USA-made 120-gallon horizontal steel tank for shops with sustained compressed-air demand. Its three-cylinder pump runs at 1,750 RPM and delivers 37 CFM at 90 PSI and 35 CFM at 175 PSI, with a 145–175 PSI working range. The horizontal configuration is 72" long and 52" tall, while the compressor requires 220V three-phase service and includes a magnetic starter.

The factory-installed Plus Package combines an air-cooled aftercooler, automatic low-oil shut-off, and automatic tank drain. The aftercooler lowers compressed-air temperature before it enters the tank, helping condense moisture so less water travels downstream to tools and equipment. The low-oil sensor shuts the compressor down when oil falls below the safe level, helping protect the pump from oil-related damage. Meanwhile, the programmable automatic drain periodically purges condensate from the tank without requiring someone to manually open the drain valve. A continuous-run option is also included for applications where air demand remains consistently high, reducing repeated motor start-stop cycles.

The AF10 is suited to busy automotive shops, body shops, and high-throughput service facilities where multiple technicians may use compressed-air equipment simultaneously. Its large tank provides stored air during periods of heavy demand, while the two-stage pump maintains the stated output at working pressure. Vibro-isolation pads help reduce vibration transfer to the floor, and the included drain extension tubes make routine tank and oil service easier to access.

Features

• 2-stage, 3-cylinder pump — Two-stage compression delivers higher pressure and airflow efficiency than a comparable single-stage design.
• 10 HP, 1,750 RPM motor — Belt-driven and designed for continuous commercial duty.
• 120-gallon horizontal steel tank — Made in the USA and provides reserve air for demanding applications.
• Magnetic starter — Included to control motor power and provide motor protection.
• Continuous-run option — Keeps the motor running during sustained high air demand instead of cycling on and off.
• Heavy-duty metal belt guard — Protects the belt drive from debris and contact.
• Vibration-isolation pads — Help reduce vibration transferred to the floor.
• Finned tank-inlet tube — Helps reduce water accumulation inside the tank.
• Hands-free tank drain extension — Routes the drain valve to a more accessible location.
• Compressor-oil drain extension tube — Makes routine oil changes easier and cleaner.

FAQ

What electrical service does the AF10 require?

The AF10 requires 220V three-phase power with a 30A breaker. Atlas recommends 10-gauge wire for runs up to 70 ft from the breaker to the compressor. This model does not operate on single-phase power.

Is the tank made in the USA?

Yes. The 120-gallon horizontal steel tank is manufactured in the USA.

What’s included in the Plus Package?

Every AF10 includes:

• Air-cooled aftercooler — Cools compressed air before it reaches the tank.
• Automatic low-oil shut-off — Stops the pump if oil levels become too low.
• Automatic tank drain — Removes condensate at a programmable interval.

What CFM does the AF10 deliver?

The AF10 delivers 37 CFM at 90 PSI and 35 CFM at 175 PSI. The compressor cycles between 145 and 175 PSI.

What’s included?

The AF10 includes the Plus Package, magnetic starter, vibration-isolation pads, hands-free tank drain extension, compressor-oil drain extension tube and heavy-duty metal belt guard.
