Used Sullair LS-40: Sell or Buy at Auction
Sullair is an American air compressor manufacturer known for durable rotary screw compressors used in manufacturing, construction, and industrial applications. Sullair's American manufacturing and strong dealer network make it a preferred brand in North American industrial facilities.
The Sullair LS-40 is a 40-horsepower, fixed-speed rotary screw air compressor from Sullair's lubricated stationary LS line, the mid-size workhorse that keeps a machine shop or a small to midsize plant supplied with steady compressed air. Often cataloged as the LS-10-40 or LS10-40H, it pairs a 40 HP drive motor with an oil-flooded rotary screw airend and typically runs around 125 psi, delivering roughly 150 to 180 cfm depending on the rated pressure, enough to feed a shop header running multiple pneumatic tools, blow-off stations, and process equipment. Unlike a reciprocating unit, it is built for continuous, 100 percent duty-cycle operation, which is why buyers pull these compressors for fabrication shops, small manufacturing plants, and general industrial service. Sullair's Michigan City, Indiana build and its broad domestic dealer network keep parts and service easy to source, so a used LS-40 with documented service history and current maintenance records tends to draw the strongest bidding. KD Auctions moves units like this through its network of 500,000+ industry contacts.
