Industrial Power Built for Extended Run Time
The Champion HPL5D-12 is designed for operations that demand higher airflow, longer run intervals, and built-in redundancy without moving to a single large-frame compressor. As part of Champion’s heavy-duty PL-Series, this duplex configuration combines two 5 HP pressure-lubricated compressor pumps on a shared receiver to deliver dependable air for continuous-duty applications.
With a large 120-gallon horizontal ASME air receiver, the HPL5D-12 provides increased air reserve to support sustained demand while reducing compressor cycling. Delivering 34.6 CFM @ 175 PSI with pressure capability up to 250 PSI, it’s an ideal solution for shops that need more air and greater reliability day after day.
Pressure Lubrication That Makes the Difference
Each compressor pump in the HPL5D-12 features a positive-displacement oil pump that actively delivers pressurized lubrication to all critical bearings and wear surfaces. This pressure-lubricated design allows the system to operate cooler, more consistently, and with reduced internal wear during extended-duty operation.
A hydraulic loadless starting system on each pump reduces electrical and mechanical stress at startup, improving efficiency and reliability in high-demand or frequent-start environments.
