Champion HQR5

Champion HQR5 is a 5 HP two-stage reciprocating air compressor delivering 16.8 SCFM @ 175 PSI on an 80-gallon vertical tank, wired for 230V/1-phase, oil-free lubrication, weighing 1,285 lbs, rated at 100% duty cycle. Oil-free construction eliminates oil contamination risk for sensitive downstream applications. Key specifications: 5 HP motor, 16.8 SCFM at 175 PSI, 80-gallon vertical tank, 230V/1-phase, 100% duty cycle, 1,285 lbs, oil-free. Pricing at approximately $7,823. The 1,285 lb unit weight indicates a heavy-duty stationary piston design appropriate for demanding shop duty. Suitable for applications where oil-free air is required at full continuous duty on 230V single-phase. Gaps: OEM datasheet URL, RPM, and oil-free mechanism details not confirmed from primary source.
