Champion VR10-8S

Champion VR10-8S is a 10-HP two-stage oil-lubricated reciprocating industrial air compressor in the VR Series, delivering 33.80 SCFM at 175 PSI maximum on an 80-gallon vertical tank. The two-stage design compresses air in successive cylinders to reach the 175 PSI rating, making the VR10-8S well suited for auto shops, industrial maintenance, and pneumatic tooling applications requiring sustained high-pressure output. Shipping weight is 766 lb and the list price is approximately ,115. The VR Series vertical squat configuration minimizes floor footprint while maintaining the large receiver volume needed for peak demand. Oil lubrication provides long service life under continuous-duty use compared to oil-free alternatives. Buyers should confirm wiring voltage and phase requirements with the Champion dealer prior to purchase, as the recorded voltage may require verification against the OEM spec sheet for this 10-HP configuration.
