PL Series Reciprocating Compressor
Champion Pneumatic — Pressure Lubricated
3–30 HP
Pressure Lubricated
Extended Pump Life
Heavy Duty
The Champion PL Series uses a pressure lubrication system — the same technology found in automotive engines — to deliver oil under pressure to all critical bearing surfaces. This results in dramatically extended pump life compared to splash-lubricated designs, making the PL Series ideal for high-duty-cycle applications.
Available in horizontal (HPL) and vertical (VPL) configurations ranging from 3 to 30 HP. Single and three-phase power options available for compatibility with virtually any facility electrical system.

- ✓ Low RPM operation for maximum pump longevity
- ✓ ASME-coded receiver tank
- ✓ Magnetic starter (three-phase models)
