Champion HR7-8-175 is a 7.5 HP two-stage reciprocating industrial air compressor delivering 25.8 SCFM at 175 PSI on an 80-gallon horizontal tank, wired for 230V single-phase power. The HR7-8 designation specifies a 7.5 HP model with an 8-gallon-per-HP tank ratio in horizontal orientation. The 175 suffix confirms 175 PSI maximum operating pressure. The HR series uses splash-lubricated cast-iron piston construction in a simplex configuration, suited for automotive shops, maintenance operations, and light fabrication. Key gaps: unit weight (lbs), noise level (dB), duty cycle percentage, and footprint dimensions not confirmed in available sources. Available through Champion-authorized air compressor distributors.
