Compact Compressor Solution for Higher Air Demands

Feb 16 2023

Fini direct-drive compressors

The Fini direct-drive compressors from FPS Air Compressors are now available in the UK. The range includes both the MiniCUBE and CUBE models, with the MiniCUBE being the most compact option in its market segment. The 2.2kW model is available as a single-phase solution if desired. For higher air demands, the CUBE is an excellent option, with models available up to 7.5 kW. The CUBE can replace a piston compressor directly and can produce 30-35% more output.

Although small in size, the MiniCUBE offers significant advantages by providing compressed air for a wide range of pneumatic devices such as air tools, spray paint guns, production machinery, and packaging systems. One of its unique features is the 1:1 direct drive system, which eliminates the need for belts, gears, pulleys, or couplings, thus reducing maintenance and avoiding tension or misalignment issues. The result is lower noise emissions, reduced energy consumption, and increased safety.


The MiniCUBE is an extremely reliable compressor suitable for continuous use. It offers the same power as a screw compressor and is available in both three-phase (400 V) and single-phase (240 V) variants. The three-phase model is equipped with an IE3 energy efficiency class motor. This compact compressor has a footprint of less than 1m3 and operates very quietly, making it suitable for placement in any operating environment. Additionally, the MiniCUBE is surprisingly affordable, despite having features such as a shock-resistant thermoformed protective cover, intake regulator, and 'LOGIN Basic' multi-function controller. This oil-lubricated coaxial compressor is an excellent investment.

The LOGIN Basic controller of the MiniCUBE is designed to be user-friendly, and it provides valuable information about the system's status. It measures and displays critical parameters such as operating temperature, operating pressure, total working hours, load hours, and remaining hours until maintenance. The controller also has a dedicated display for alarm management and comes with integrated digital phase sequence control. This makes it easy to monitor and manage the MiniCUBE's operation, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability.


The MiniCUBE is offered in floor-mounted models with either powder-coated or galvanised tanks. This 2.2 kW compressor provides air outflow rates of either 261 or 292 l/min, depending on the model.

The CUBE range is designed for higher air demands and is available in models up to 7.5 kW. Just like the MiniCUBE, the CUBE compressor is oil-injected and utilises a rotary screw. It is compact, energy-efficient, reliable, and operates quietly. The CUBE also features direct-drive transmission, and it shares all the same features as the MiniCUBE. Additionally, the CUBE includes an ETMII controller with a backlit multi-function display. This controller has several noteworthy features, including four maintenance timers for the air filter, oil, oil filter, and separator filter. The cooling fan temperature is also programmable, and it comes with programmable remote control starting.

The CUBE compressor is a heavy-duty machine that can operate continuously under the most severe conditions of use. Additionally, the "ES" version comes with a refrigerated dryer that is completely enclosed within the main cabinet while retaining the same shape and dimensions as the standard machine. The CUBE is available in floor-mounted models with either powder-coated or galvanized tanks, and it comes in a range of sizes from 4 kW to 7.5 kW, with air outflow rates ranging from 460 to 1,050 l/min.

The CUBE and MiniCUBE are both plug-and-play systems that come ready for use and include RotarECOFLUID mineral oil. In addition, there are options available for both models, such as a heater that prevents the formation of condensate by maintaining adequate oil temperature during the compressor's standby phase.

The compressors, which operate at a high level of efficiency and produce low noise levels of just 65 dB(A), come with a three-year warranty, providing users such as machine builders, small manufacturers, automotive workshops, theme parks, car washes, farm workshops, wood yards, education establishments, and many others with reliable performance and peace of mind.
