The Atlas Air Force AF9P is a 7.5 HP, two-stage, 120-gallon air compressor built for multi-bay auto shops, fleet maintenance facilities, and any operation that runs on compressed air every working day. A belt-driven 2-cylinder, 2-stage pump turns at 1,750 RPM and holds a 145–175 PSI operating range, feeding a USA-made horizontal steel tank sized for sustained shop demand.
The AF9P ships with the Atlas Plus Package — three commercial-duty features that protect the unit and improve the air it delivers. An automatic low-oil monitor shuts the compressor down before oil starvation damages the pump, an automatic tank drain purges condensate without a daily walk-around, and an air-cooled aftercooler drops discharge temperature so less moisture reaches your tools and paint lines.
Atlas builds the AF9P around industrial controls: a Hubbell pressure switch, an EATON magnetic starter that manages electrical input to extend motor life, a heavy-duty metal belt guard, and a finned tank inlet tube that reduces water accumulation inside the tank. The unit runs on 220-volt single-phase service with a 40-amp breaker and #8 wire.
7.5 HP motor at 1,750 RPM — sized to run lifts, impact tools, sanders, and spray equipment.
120-gallon USA-made steel tank — large air reserve for sustained demand.
145–175 PSI operating range — wide pressure band reduces motor cycling under load.
Plus Package — automatic low-oil monitor, automatic tank drain, and air-cooled aftercooler standard.
Hubbell pressure switch and EATON magnetic starter — industrial controls that manage electrical input and extend motor life.
Finned tank inlet tube — pre-cools incoming air to reduce water accumulation inside the tank.
Heavy-duty metal belt guard — encloses the drive belt and pulley.
Vibro-isolation pads included — reduce transmitted vibration on shop concrete.
Hands-free tank drain extension and oil drain extension tube — route service points out from under the pump.
Component layout with 72" length and 52" overall height.

FAQ
Is the AF9P sized for a multi-bay shop?
Yes. Atlas recommends the AF9P for large multi-bay auto shops and for any business that depends on its compressor every working day. The 7.5 HP motor, 120-gallon tank, and 145–175 PSI operating range cover the air demand from lifts, impact tools, sanders, and spray equipment running concurrently.
What electrical service does it need?
The AF9P runs on 220V single-phase, requires a 40-amp breaker, and needs #8 wire. Confirm your shop's panel can support this circuit before ordering; if you only have 110V service or three-phase, this unit is not the right fit.
What does the Plus Package include?
Three commercial-duty features come standard: an automatic low-oil monitor that shuts the unit down before oil starvation damages the pump, an automatic tank drain that purges condensate without manual intervention, and an air-cooled aftercooler that lowers discharge air temperature so less moisture reaches the line.
Is the tank made in the USA?
Yes. The 120-gallon steel tank on the AF9P is manufactured in the United States.
Does the AF9P include a magnetic starter?
Yes. An EATON magnetic starter is included as standard equipment. The magnetic starter controls electrical input to the motor and is one of the components that extends the compressor's service life.
What is the warranty?
1 year, parts only. Coverage details are confirmed at the time of order.
