Chicago Pneumatic has added our range of electric portable - CPS E Air Compressors
Why Choose E-Air?
Why did we launch this product?
The CP E-Air Range of Compressors offers our customers an option to avoid having to refill diesel engine fluid and diesel fuel for compressors that are being used for long-term rentals. At the same time, these electric compressors cost less to operate and service.
This range of compressors combines smart engineering, time-tested technology, and quality components that all add up to a solution with extreme versatility--suitable for a wide range of applications.
The E-Air compressors offered by CP are loaded with many standard features and benefits.

FAQ
What am I paying for?
The initial purchase price for the AP E-Air units is higher than a standard industrial compressor.
The higher price is because we've added additional features that are not normally required or offered on an industrial stationary compressor.
What about flow & pressure settings?
The rated airflow from the CP E-Air compressors are measured according to ISO 1217, 2009 annex D.
What about the installation?
The CPS E Air compressors are designed and built for rental. We have all of the following features: Cam Lock Connections, Analog Control, Main Breaker, Soft Start Motor Control, NEMA 4 Control Enclosure, Reinforced Base, Lithium Connection, and 110% Fluid Containment.
These features all help for quick installations, plus offer a trailer package option for even more flexibility.
What about temperature?
The CPS E-Air units all come standard with a cold weather package that allows for operation down to -13° F.
