The S244B fire protection compressor is a ½-horsepower baseplate unit, which features our Digital AMD. A baseplate air compressor is a tankless unit that contains a motor, pump, and pressure switch. Our Digital Air Maintenance Device allows users and techs to properly set the system pressure in seconds! The AMD comes Factory Set at 10 to 20 PSI and is adjustable from 5 to 55 PSI. Our patent-pending Leak Detection shows techs and owners how many times the system has run in the past 24 hours and 7 days! This is a quick and easy way to quantify how leaky a system is. The S244 is available in 115 or 230 volts and comes with a removable power cord for instant programming! It is also lightweight at 75 pounds. When reliability is essential, C-Aire recommends the Heavy Duty Series. Our Heavy Duty compressors are built for longevity and provide the lowest total cost of ownership over the life of the building. In addition to new projects where the compressor will last for many years, the Heavy Duty Series is the perfect solution for replacing failed compressors in older systems. Our fire protection air compressors are specifically engineered for dry pipe & pre-action fire sprinkler systems. We are committed to enhancing the fire protection industry using customer feedback, new technology, and industry trends to deliver innovative solutions to the market.
