R74 and R75 of the 2015 rules have simple diagrams showing what should be in the off-board compressor unit. There aren't really enough components to need very much creativity to build it elegantly; just make sure that you can carry it without touching the (hot!) compressor. Some quick-disconnects for the wires (e.g. Andersons) are also in order.
