I found a single phase 5hp compressor and before I decide to pick it up, does anyone know what kind of pump is on here? No identifying plaques, or numbers anywhere.

I’m cleaning out my workshop and I have a box with some manifolds that came off my 1937 SE-30. After I blew a rod l I decided to scrap the old beast and use what I could on my now overhauled 1984 R15. The manifolds fit every r15/r30 I’ve tried them on. I suspect champion has left the design...

You looking to get rid of it?

If anyone has a vintage champion compressor and is in need of a sub box for it, I have an extra. Came off of a 1937 SE30. (Almost same design as R30) These appear to be used on 2 stage, 4cyl units for up until the later 70s/early 80s designs The first stage finned intercooler lines all hook...

I have an extra 7.5 Baldor single phase just collecting dust but I found an almost new 10hp single phase Baldor locally for $500 I’ve been eyeballing too. Haven’t decided which route to pursue yet. I would love to throw a 10hp on so I don’t have to mess with sheaves or anything and just run...

Just curious, you all think 1750 would be a fair price for one of these? QR-25 Quincy 350 with a 10hp motor? I’m gonna have to buy a single phase motor for it but but considering if I wanted just the bare pump brand new, they’re between 2200-2600, it seems like a good deal. Comes with a 120 gal...

These are the dryers I’m comparing. Everything is in same location.

I have a Kaeser HTRD 20 dryer and it just stopped turning on, not even the oh **** light is coming on. It’s getting power at the outlet. I’m not sure if it’s the power switch or a contactor. I opened it up and am in the process of looking around to trace all the wiring. I emailed Kaeser...

sweet. Thanks

Three phase but I have extra motors & starters

Dude is selling this by me for $100 It works. Tank has pinhole leaks but compressor is fine. It doesn’t say a model # but it has a serial. From some googling it might be an ED. Are these decent two stage units? I have an extra tank so I’m not too concerned about this tank. May make it...

I’m thinking he may be right. Lol. I saw that video the other week. Didn’t see too many differences between the units. I was hoping champion or one of the many companies I emailed had some more info. Like mine is a se/30/35a. Unfortunately I Can’t find anywhere what the 35A part means. Best...

Not sure lol. Part of me doesn’t want to do much to this piece, polish the valves and new oil, then just run it. If i decide not to keep it down the road then absolutely. I’ll have it looking pristine if that’s the case

Pm me your email and I’ll send it. Unfortunately the cfm isn’t mentioned. On the RE36v model a decade or two later, either with a 5 or 7.5hp at 400-650 rpm it’s rated between 21 and 36 or something like that depending on configuration. I’m sure it can handle more than 7.5hp. It varies so...

Well it took a couple weeks but I finally found the manual for it. Rather, champion tech support did and emailed it to me. Late 30’s early 40’s. Most likely pre US involvement in WW2. They’re going to see if they can find an exact date. Wild how the design hasn’t changed too terribly much since...
