Question Utilus 10

[Relegen]

Hello everyone. I just bought a Utilus 10 compressor that has lived in a fire station and has 307 hours on it. It was just serviced, filters changes and an air purity test done on it. It looks like new as it has lived in a clean office type environment most of its life

I paid $1800 Australian Dollars for it. I have been diving for over 40 years but this is my first compressor. What do you all think? Good deal or crazy for buying such an old compressor? It will live on my catamaran that we also live on

Also, does anyone out there have a manual for it? If so, can I pls get a copy of it emailed to me? The Bauer website seems to have the Parts list but not the manual. It is 240V, Single phase and was built in 1988. Thanks in advance. Paul

Bauers workshop manuals are excellent if you need to carry out work on these units. If you are after an owners manual, the one for the Utilus should do.

Thanks a lot, tanks a lot - fantastic - just what I was looking for!

You got a really nice compressor, but be warned: the filter is an undersized problem. You will not get many tanks filled before it needs to be changed. The volume rating is at a specific somewhat low temperature, and the decrease in longevity is massive with little increase in ambient temperature. You have a guy there that manufactures repackable cartridges for that unit. TMF Engineering? TFM Engineering? Something like that....

Look at getting one...

No, it says "It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search - you should probably ask Tanks a lot"

Hey man there's a huge amount of info on those sites including compressors on yachts
and re-packable filter efficiency, for those with the patience and smart enough to find it
despite having been spoon fed by the magnificent Tanks A Lot and not just a smart arse



Don't have your compressor knockin when the boat's a rockin

No
