LEGACY
The BAUER LEGACY® program units are built on the popular and serviceable VERTECON® platform and are not stripped-down units. Rather, they are built with BAUER’s most popular options and upgrades! The BAUER LEGACY® Fill Stations are built on the fully NFPA 1901 Compliant CFSII Platform.
VERTICUS®
3-, 4-, AND 5-STAGE ENCLOSED HIGH-PRESSURE BREATHING AIR COMPRESSORS
The days of “breadbox” designed compressor packages are over! Step up to the BAUER VERTICUS®. Sound attenuation has been incorporated on every possible panel to provide a nice and quiet operating level of approximately 72 dB (within one-meter). One package size accommodates BAUER high pressure air-cooled compressors from 5 to 20 HP motors. Our new, larger, 7” HMI enhances monitoring the system functions.
UNICUS®
This game-changing filling station employs our state-of-the-art control system centered around a 15-inch HMI touch screen interface, which allows the operator to manage the entire system from the single-point touch screen. UNICUS®4i has several innovative optional features including BAUER Gas-Tek™ monitoring system and RFID Reader.
BAUER has been manufacturing high-pressure compressors for over 70 years.
BAUER has earned its reputation as the world's foremost innovative designer and manufacturer of high-pressure compressors and purification systems.BAUER is the only manufacturer that continually reinvests in itself to offer you the latest in high-pressure compressor technology.

BAUER LEGACY® units will be built in quantity, utilizing proven "work cell" manufacturing techniques for "off the shelf", in-stock delivery. This quantity build, coupled with the uniform BAUER LEGACY® platform, enables us to capture economies of scale which in turn allow us to leverage internal resources and supply chain management. This translates into a price structure that offers substantial savings above and beyond our normal discount for our valued distributors.
