HPL30-24

Champion HPL30-24 Air Compressor – 30 HP PL-Series Pressure Lubricated Industrial Compressor (240 Gallon)

The Champion HPL30-24 Air Compressor is one of the most powerful models in Champion’s PL-Series pressure-lubricated reciprocating compressor lineup, engineered for large-scale manufacturing facilities, automotive production plants, heavy fabrication operations, and centralized compressed air systems. Equipped with a 30 HP three-phase electric motor, a heavy-duty PL-70 two-stage pressure-lubricated cast iron pump, and a 240-gallon ASME-certified horizontal air receiver tank, this compressor is designed for maximum airflow, exceptional durability, and continuous-duty industrial performance.

Delivering approximately 101 CFM at 175 PSI, the HPL30-24 is built for facilities that demand reliable compressed air around the clock. Its pressure-lubricated design ensures superior component protection, lower wear rates, and extended service life compared to conventional splash-lubricated compressors.

Advantages of the PL-Series Design

Pressure Lubrication Technology

Unlike splash-lubricated compressors, the PL-Series uses a positive-displacement oil pump that continuously circulates filtered oil throughout the compressor. This reduces wear, improves cooling, and supports long-duration operation.

High Airflow Capacity

With over 100 CFM output, the HPL30-24 is capable of supporting large industrial air systems and multiple simultaneous users.

Heavy-Duty Industrial Construction

The PL-Series incorporates cast iron cylinders, disc valves, domed pistons, and industrial-grade bearings designed for maximum durability.

Reduced Maintenance and Downtime

Features such as oil filtration, low-oil protection, hydraulic unloading, and aftercooling contribute to lower maintenance requirements and improved operational reliability.
