Champion BR15F is a 15 HP two-stage pressure-lubricated reciprocating air compressor delivering 49.9 SCFM at 175 PSI in a base-mount (tank-less) configuration, wired for 208 V three-phase, and weighing 550 lb. The F suffix denotes the base-mount flange configuration without integral tank, designed for installation on a separately specified receiver or existing plant-air system. The BR-Series heavy-duty pressure-lubricated design suits sustained industrial applications: manufacturing lines, large body shops, and multi-tool systems requiring 175 PSI with high-volume output. List price is approximately 5,665 USD. Key gaps: duty cycle not specified in available sources; OEM datasheet from championpneumatic.com not confirmed; noise level (dB) not published.
