Description
Champion HPL10-24 Air Compressor – 10 HP PL-Series Pressure Lubricated Industrial Compressor (240 Gallon)
The Champion HPL10-24 Air Compressor is a heavy-duty industrial PL-Series pressure-lubricated two-stage piston compressor system designed for continuous-duty applications in manufacturing, automotive production, CNC machining, and large-scale workshop environments. It features a 10 HP three-phase electric motor, a rugged PL-Series cast iron two-stage pump (PL-30A platform), and a large 240-gallon ASME-certified horizontal tank, making it suitable for high-demand centralized air systems.
This model is engineered for high airflow, extended duty cycles, and maximum durability, with pressure-lubricated components designed for harsh industrial environments and 24/7 operation capability.
It delivers approximately 33.8 CFM at 175 PSI, with PL-Series capability allowing operation up to higher pressures depending on configuration.

Champion HPL10-24 Air Compressor – 10HP PL-Series: Buying Considerations
The HPL10-24 is built for centralized compressed air systems, not small workshop use. The large 240-gallon tank helps stabilize pressure across multiple production lines, reducing pressure drop during peak demand.
The PL-Series pressure lubrication system is a key advantage over standard splash-lubricated compressors. It continuously supplies oil to critical internal components, improving reliability and extending service life in continuous cycling environments.
This makes it suitable for facilities that require:
Stable multi-station air distribution
Long runtime with minimal downtime
High durability under constant load conditions
Before ordering the Champion HPL10-24 Air Compressor – 10HP PL-Series from Champion, review the points below against your actual site conditions and workload. Published specifications describe the equipment under test conditions, and real-world performance depends on how closely your application matches those conditions. Buyers in the United States, Canada, and Asia should also confirm local voltage and frequency requirements, applicable safety or emissions standards, and freight or import logistics for the destination before finalizing an order.
What to Check Before You Buy
- Total the real CFM demand of every tool that could run at the same time, then add reserve capacity for leaks and future tools – not just the single largest tool's rating.
- Confirm voltage and phase availability (120V/240V, single/three-phase) matches the compressor's electrical requirement.
- Check tank size relative to duty cycle – a larger tank reduces motor cycling on intermittent loads but does not substitute for adequate CFM on continuous-demand tools.
- Review noise rating if the compressor will run in an occupied or noise-sensitive space.
Does tank size matter more than CFM for a shop air compressor?
CFM output matters more for continuous-demand tools (sanders, grinders); tank size matters more for intermittent high-draw tools (impact wrenches, nail guns) where the tank supplies a burst faster than the motor could alone. Undersized CFM cannot be fixed by a bigger tank if the tool's continuous demand exceeds the compressor's output.
For sizing help across the full Compressor category, compare specifications side by side before committing to a specific model, and confirm current pricing, availability, and freight details for your location. Keep the supplier data sheet and any acceptance criteria on record for future maintenance and replacement decisions.
