Champion VR7-12 is a 7.5 HP two-stage piston air compressor delivering 25.6 SCFM at 175 PSI on a 120-gallon vertical tank, wired for 230V single-phase, in a simplex configuration. The two-stage cast-iron pump compresses air in two steps for cooler discharge temperatures and improved volumetric efficiency relative to single-stage units. The 120-gallon vertical tank stores sufficient reserve volume to run multiple air tools — spray guns, impact wrenches, die grinders — while limiting cycling frequency on typical shop demand cycles. At 175 PSI maximum pressure, it meets the rated requirements of most industrial air tools and spray equipment. Champion supports this line through its authorized industrial dealer network. Key gaps: motor RPM, decibel rating, unit weight, and OEM datasheet URL not in catalog record.
