Abstract
A mounting system is provided for supporting a weight of a compressor in a mobile application. The compressor may include a top end and a bottom end. The mounting system may include a housing having a top plate and a bottom plate, the top plate being disposed a distance above the bottom plate. A mounting bracket may be connected to the top plate and the bottom plate. An isolation assembly may be disposed on the mounting bracket and may be configured to connect to the compressor at a connecting location below the top end and above a location at or adjacent to the bottom end of the compressor. The isolation assembly is configured to support the weight of the compressor at the connecting location without the compressor being supported adjacent to its bottom end.
