The PL-Series compressor has been designed to operate in extreme duty applications and is also an alternative to an R-Series unit. Because the PL-Series can operate up to 250 psi, in remote locations or in off-level operations, it is a true industrial use compressor. Champion is so confident in the way it has engineered and built its products, it offers a 5-year warranty on the compressor pump. The PL-Series features domed pistons, integral cylinder head, disc valves and an oil pump that provides lubricant to all crucial parts of the compressor. From its extra heavy duty design to its ease of maintenance, the Champion PL-Series exemplifies reliability, durability and quality.

Additional Information

N/A 1 Pressure lubrication
Crankshaft and connecting rod bearings are pressure lubricated for extended life.

2 Oil pressure gauge
Mounted on the front of the compressor for an excellent view and easy pressure monitoring.

3 Babbitt bearings
Replaceable bearing makes repairs easy and inexpensive.

4 Lubricant filtration
An external spin on oil filter and an internal oil inlet screen protect internal components from damaging debris.

5 Positive displacement oil pump
Provides lubricant to all critical areas of the compressor pump that require lubrication.

6 Loadless starting
Hydraulic unloader with-factory set pilot valve provides easy, loadless starts and low oil pressure protection for unattended operation.

Select the configuration that matches your application
With many models from which to choose in both single-stage and two-stage, we can match your needs exactly. These configurations, combined with a wide choice of options, provide all the components for a customized installation. They are available in both R-Series splash-lubricated and PL-Series pressure-lubricated models.

Tank-mounted Air Compressors
Available with horizontal or space-saving vertical tanks, two-stage air compressors compress air to a higher pressure than single stage compressors.

Base-mounted Air Compressors
Designed for installations where air tanks are remotely located.

Duplex Air Compressors
For extra air delivery when you need it without wasted space. Plus the flexibility of single operation, alternating between compressors, or duplex operation to meet high air demand.

Gasoline or Diesel Engine Powered Air Compressors
Truck and utility bed mounting design makes these compressors ideal for fleet and field service. Ideal for applications where electricity is not available.

Bare Compressor Pumps
Provide dependable service for industrial applications, pump replacement or OEM applications. The rugged pump design assures reliability and long maintenance intervals.

Receivers
Receivers are ASME approved and include a pressure gauge, pressure relief valve, drain valve and service valve.
