October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Kaeser Compressors, Inc. is bringing back its “Compressor for a Cure” fundraiser campaign in 2023.

The auction for a pink Airtower 5c  compressor will begin on National Mammography Day, October 20, and conclude on October 30. The popular Airtower is a complete compressed air system with a Sigma rotary screw compressor, refrigerated air dryer, and drain—all compactly mounted with a receiver tank. The Airtower 5C is a 5 hp unit providing up to 21 cfm and available in pressures from 125-217 psig. The Airtower is useful for a wide variety of applications and our Compressor for a Cure campaign will be a great way to purchase a fully operational compressed air system and fund breast cancer research at the same time. 

Last year a pink M59PE raised over $20,000 for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Kaeser will again donate 100% of proceeds from our equipment auction to help fund critically needed research efforts.
