ABAC AS-10S753TM 10 HP Rotary Screw Air Compressor - 131 Gallon Tank Mount, 175 PSI, 29.9 CFM, 65 dBA

The ABAC AS-10S753TM is a 10 HP rotary screw compressor and a 131 gallon air receiver supplied as one factory assembly, built for shops that need steady air all shift rather than the stop and start cycle of a piston unit. It delivers 29.9 CFM at 175 PSI and runs at 65 dBA, quiet enough to sit on the shop floor instead of in a separate compressor room. This is the quiet 10S air end set to the highest pressure offered on a 10 HP AS machine, so it is the build to specify when a tool on the line genuinely needs 175 PSI rather than more volume. Because the screw unit and the tank ship mounted and plumbed together, installation comes down to setting it in place, wiring it and connecting your air line. Power is 208-230-460V three phase.

Why a tank mounted screw

A rotary screw is rated for continuous duty, so it holds a flat line pressure through a full shift instead of sagging and recovering between jobs the way a piston machine does. The one duty pattern a screw genuinely dislikes is short cycling, and the 131 gallon receiver underneath this machine is what prevents it: the tank absorbs short bursts of demand so the air end runs loaded for useful stretches rather than starting and unloading every few seconds. Buying the compressor and the receiver as a single factory assembly also removes the part of the install that usually goes wrong. There is no separate tank to site, no interconnecting pipe to fabricate and no second set of mounts. The installer lands power and ties into the header. Air leaving any screw comes out hot and saturated, so if the system feeds paint, pneumatic controls or precision tools, plan on drying it; see the comparison below for the factory dryer build.

How it compares

Across the 10S air end, pressure and airflow trade directly against each other on identical hardware, and this machine sits at the pressure end of that trade. The AS-10S503TM is the same 750 lb package set for 150 PSI at 35.6 CFM, and the AS-10S253TM runs 125 PSI at 39.8 CFM. Going from 125 to 175 PSI costs roughly 10 CFM on the same 10 HP motor, so buy pressure only to the level your highest tool actually needs. If you want drying handled in the same package, the AS-10S753TMD is this same build with an integrated refrigerated dryer at 844 lbs. If you already own a receiver, the AS-10S753BM is the bare base mount at 454 lbs on a 37 x 28 in footprint. Within the 10 HP AS machines the 175 PSI rating is offered on the 10S air end only, so this is the 10 HP route to that pressure. If 29.9 CFM is short of what your tool list draws, the AS-15753TM holds the same 175 PSI at 41.7 CFM.

Typical applications

Work that a 125 or 150 PSI machine cannot cover: pneumatic presses and clamping fixtures, air operated diaphragm pumps, laser cutting assist gas, sandblasting cabinets, and heavy impact tooling that loses torque the moment line pressure drops. It also handles ordinary production and fabrication duty alongside those, with the headroom to run a long pipe drop without the pressure at the far end falling below what the tool is rated for. Automotive and fleet service bays, tire and truck shops, cabinet and woodworking shops, and any operation where a reciprocating compressor is working too hard to hold line pressure are all good fits. At 65 dBA the machine can sit in the work area rather than in a dedicated compressor room, which is often what decides the 10S over the standard air end when the compressor shares a room with the people using it.

What to pair it with

Give the cabinet about 3 feet of clear air on the cooling side, keep it out of a hot corner, and run it on its own circuit sized to the motor nameplate. Confirm your piping, fittings and hose are rated above 175 PSI before you commission it, because a system assembled around a 125 PSI machine is not automatically suited to this one. Oil, oil filter and separator element are the service items, and the digital controller tracks the intervals, so keep a spare set on the shelf. There is no dryer fitted to this build, so air treatment is the open decision: a refrigerated dryer sized to 29.9 CFM plus a particulate and coalescing filter set behind it will keep water, pipe scale and oil carryover out of your distribution piping.

Call us with your tool list and duty cycle and we will confirm receiver sizing, connection sizes and installation clearances before you pipe it in.
