Champion HR5-12 is a 5 HP two-stage piston air compressor delivering 17 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 120-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230V single-phase, in a simplex configuration. The two-stage cast-iron pump provides industrial-duty compressed air at 175 PSI for impact tools, air ratchets, spray equipment, and blow guns. The 120-gallon horizontal receiver stores adequate reserve volume for a 5 HP unit to minimize cycling on typical shop demand. This entry shares model number and specs with PID 1501; variant differences if any are not yet confirmed in the catalog. Champion supports this model through authorized service dealers nationwide. Key gaps: variant differentiation from PID 1501 not confirmed; motor RPM, decibel rating, weight, and OEM datasheet URL not in catalog record.
