Champion VR7F

Champion VR7F is a 7.5 HP two-stage reciprocating industrial air compressor delivering 22.3 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 60-gallon vertical tank, wired for 208V single-phase power. The unit weighs 630 lbs. The VR series uses splash-lubricated cast-iron piston construction in a simplex configuration. The F suffix indicates a specific variant within the VR7 series. The 208V single-phase electrical supply suits facilities served by lower-voltage single-phase circuits. Designed for intermittent-duty shop air, maintenance operations, and fabrication support. Key gaps: noise level (dB), duty cycle, and footprint dimensions not confirmed in available sources. Available through Champion-authorized air compressor distributors.
