Champion HR7-12

Champion HR7-12 is a 7.5 HP two-stage reciprocating piston compressor (Champion R-Series with R30 pump, a Gardner Denver brand) delivering 25.6 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 120-gallon horizontal tank at 120V single-phase. Max pressure is 175 PSI. Unit weighs 882 lbs. The 120V single-phase supply allows plug-in installation without dedicated three-phase service. Simplex configuration provides dedicated single-point air supply for automotive service bays, fabrication shops, and light manufacturing. Retail pricing from authorized distributors ranges from approximately $6,188 to $6,722. Note: lubrication type (oil-free vs. splash) should be confirmed with the distributor, as the R30 pump designation typically indicates splash-lubricated operation. Confirm pump model and duty cycle rating with an authorized Champion/Gardner Denver distributor before purchase.
