The Champion Evolution provides the advantages of a reciprocating compressor coupled with the low noise of a rotary screw. Ideal for areas with a low noise requirement, Evolution can be installed directly within the work environment close to the point-of-use. This eliminates the need for a dedicated room or an outside installation and can save hundreds of feet in piping resulting in reduced pressure drops, ultimately increasing your bottom line.

Which Compressor is Right for Me?	N/A When purchasing an air compressor, many people often ask: "Is a rotary screw or reciprocating compressor right for me?" Today, the choice of air compressors is abundant. A number of factors determine the answer to this question, including the operating requirements, application, and budget. Ideal for constant-volume applications, rotary screw compressors are used extensively in applications above 30 horsepower and are often limited to a maximum air pressure of 150 psig. Rotary screw compressors typically have a higher initial cost than reciprocating compressors and require costly maintenance programs. Common advantages include a low noise level, low vibration, and 100% duty cycle. Reciprocating (piston) air compressors are widely considered as 'work-horse' compressors. They may be seen in the corner of the garage, in auto body and tire shops, woodworking facilities, hospitals, construction sites, amusement parks, and industrial facilities. Industrial reciprocating compressors are able to operate in a severe duty environment, have lower initial costs, lower maintenance costs, and are ideal for intermittent duty operation. They save energy in no-load conditions and operate efficiently at partial loads, which results in a higher overall efficiency for many diverse applications. Piston compressors are more forgiving than rotaries and normally operate more dependably in less than ideal conditions. Historically, it was not possible to provide the benefits of a reciprocating compressor in a low noise application. For this reason, rotary screw compressors have been misapplied in intermittent duty applications, resulting in frequent downtime, inefficient operation, problems with condensate, and higher maintenance costs.
Additional Information	N/A The Engineering Challenges of Quiet Enclosed Heat Control The majority of reciprocating compressors’ discharge temperatures can reach a 400º F level or higher. Locating a compressor and motor together in the same cabinet requires a creative heat control solution. The heat from the compressor operation increases the electric motor operating temperature, thus reducing the motor’s service life and long-term reliability. The Evolution 5 and 7.5 horsepower solution offers two separate cooling circuits with each one pulling cool ambient air. With the electric motor operating in its own isolated area of the package, Evolution ensures the temperatures outlined by the motor manufacturer are not exceeded. Reliability and quiet operation are the result of this impressive engineering solution. Vibration Minimization A one-piece powder coated inner base supports both the compressor and the motor. Rubber vibration isolators separate the inner base from the enclosure for maximum noise and vibration control. The sound attenuating enclosure, made of 16 gauge steel with additional foam insulation, enables the compressor package to run quieter. Additional vibration pads between the enclosure and the tank are added for unmatched quiet operation. Sound Testing With a commitment to research and development, Champion provides our customers with products which uphold our tradition of quality and proven results. As part of the new product development process, the Evolution has passed extensive design reviews as well as performance, endurance and sound testing requirements.

N/A The Challenges of More Horsepower & More CFM Heat Control As the majority of reciprocating compressors' discharge temperatures can reach a 400º F level or higher, maximizing the motor’s service life and its long term reliability remains the challenge in designing a 10 and 15 horsepower quiet enclosed compressor. More CFM requires a larger compressor, so removing the heat from the low noise enclosure requires another creative engineering solution. The 10 and 15 horsepower Evolution solution implements dual cooling fans that pull cool ambient air from the bottom of the compressor through the package and discharge it through the top of the enclosure. Isolated coolers take the heat from the compressor pump through the included air cooled after cooler further reducing the temperature inside the enclosure. Vibration Minimization Similar to its 5 and 7.5 horsepower little brother, the 10 and 15 horsepower models have a one-piece powder coated inner base that supports both the compressor and the motor. Rubber vibration isolators separate the inner base from the enclosure for maximum noise and vibration control. The sound attenuating enclosure, made of 16 and 12 gauge steel with additional foam insulation, enables the compressor package to run quieter.
