10 units were built by Compass. This compressor package was continuously improved over the delivery of the 1st – 10th unit. Feedback was gathered from end users and our field service division to make modifications focused on improved operational efficiency, serviceability and vibration related concerns. This process allows us to provide the best solution and product line to our customers.
