PORTABLE COMPRESSORS - CPS 185-100｜ Other Products

Product Description: The CPS 185-100 KoD is a heavy-duty portable diesel air compressor designed for demanding construction, industrial, utility, and jobsite applications.
It delivers reliable compressed air performance with a Kohler Tier 4 Final diesel engine and a robust design built for durability, easy operation, and simplified maintenance.
The compressor features a CP Xc1004 controller with a standard disconnect switch, providing operational monitoring, diagnostics, and safety warning/shutdown functions, including protection against high engine and compressor element temperatures.
A spillage-free frame, heavy-duty battery, thermostatic bypass valve, and DOT towing package make the CPS 185-100 KoD well suited for mobile jobsite use.
