Couple-Free Technology

LOWER MAINTENANCE, EASIER INSTALLATION, MORE RELIABILITY

Cooper’s CFA couple-free compressor provides a revolutionary design that delivers low mechanical vibrations, lower fatigue stresses and higher reliability. This allows for lower packaging costs and a lifetime of lower maintenance costs. The CFA compressor reaches 1,800 RPM, has a max power of 580 HP and a total rod load of 27,000 lbs. The compact design yields a small footprint, and it is ideal for portable skids and CNG applications.
