Champion HR15-12

Champion HR15-12 is a 15 HP two-stage oil-free reciprocating air compressor delivering 54.1 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 120-gallon tank. This simplex-configuration industrial unit weighs 1,210 lbs and is priced at approximately $8,995. The oil-free piston design eliminates lubricant contamination risk, making it appropriate for food processing, pharmaceutical, dental, and electronics manufacturing applications where air purity is critical. At 54.1 SCFM, this unit can supply multiple tools simultaneously in demanding shop environments. Key gaps: confirmed operating voltage (120V appears atypical for 15 HP; verify 208-230V), duty-cycle rating, and OEM primary-source datasheet not yet located.
