SAFETY
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will result
in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury or property damage.
NOTICE
Indicates information or a company
policy that relates directly or indirectly to
the safety of personnel or protection of
property.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
DANGER
Intake air can contain carbon monoxide or other contaminants.
Will cause serious injury or death. Ingersoll Rand air compressors
are not designed, intended or approved for breathing air.
Compressed air should not be used for breathing air applications
unless treated in accordance with all applicable codes and
regulations.

WARNING
A hazardous voltage can cause serious injury or death.
Disconnect power and bleed pressure from the tank before
servicing. Lockout/tagout machine. Compressor must be
connected to properly grounded circuit. See grounding
instructions in manual. Do not operate compressor in wet
conditions. Store indoors.
Moving parts. Can cause serious injury. Do not operate with
guards removed. Machine may start automatically. Disconnect
power before servicing. Lockout/tagout machine.
Hot surfaces. Can cause serious injury. Do not touch. Allow to
cool before servicing. Do not touch hot compressor or tubing.
High pressure air. Bypassing, modifying or removing safety/relief
valves can cause serious injury or death. Do not bypass, modify
or remove safety/relief valves. Do not direct air stream at body.
Rusted tanks can cause explosion and severe injury or death.
Drain tank daily or after each use. Drain valve located at bottom
of tank.
CAUTION
A caution risk of bursting. Use only suitable air handling parts
acceptable for pressure of not less than the maximum allowable
working pressure of the machine.

RECEIPT & INSPECTION
Ensure adequate lifting equipment is available for unloading and moving
the compressor to the installation site.
NOTICE
Lifting equipment must be properly rated for the weight of the
unit.
CAUTION
Lift the compressor by the shipping skid only. Do not use the
motor lifting eye to lift the entire compressor. The motor lifting
eye is for removing the motor from the compressor only.
CAUTION
Do not work on or walk under the compressor while it is
suspended.
Use suitable lifting equipment (i.e. forklift) to lift and transport the
compressor to the installation site. Ensure the lifting equipment, straps,
etc. are capable of supporting the weight of the unit.
Lifting Equipment and Straps
Before signing the delivery receipt, inspect for damage and missing parts.
If damage or missing parts are apparent, make the appropriate notation on
the delivery receipt, then sign the receipt. Immediately contact the carrier
for an inspection.
All material must be held in the receiving location for the carrier’s
inspection.
Delivery receipts that have been signed without a notation of damage or
missing parts are considered to be delivered“clear.” Subsequent claims are
then considered to be concealed damage claims. Settle damage claims
directly with the transportation company.
If you discover damage after receiving the compressor (concealed
damage), the carrier must be notied within 15 days of receipt and
an inspection must be requested by telephone with conrmation in
writing. On concealed damage claims, the burden of establishing that the
compressor was damaged in transit reverts back to the claimant.
Read the unit nameplate to verify it is the model ordered, and read the
motor nameplate to verify it is compatible with your electrical conditions.
Make sure electrical enclosures and components are appropriate for the
installation environment.

INSTALLATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
For most electric motor units, select a relatively clean and dry well-lighted
indoor area with plenty of space for proper ventilation, cooling air ow and
accessibility. Provide 1,000 cubic feet of fresh air per 5 horsepower. Locate
the unit at least 15 inches (38 cm) from walls, and make sure the main
power supply is clearly identied and accessible.
Unless the electrical components of the unit are specially protected for
outdoor use, do not install an electric motor unit outdoors or in an area
that will expose the electrical components to rain, snow or sources of
appreciable moisture.
WARNING
The electric drain valve incorporates arcing or sparking parts,
such as snap switches, receptacles and the like that tend to
produce arcs or sparks and, therefore, when located in a garage,
the compressor should be in a room or enclosure provided for
the purpose, or the electric drain valve should be 18 inches (457
mm) or more above the oor.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE CONSIDERATIONS
Ideal operating temperatures are between 32°F and 100°F (0°C and 37.8°C).
If temperatures consistently drop below 32°F (0°C), install the compressor
in a heated area. If this is not possible, you must protect safety/relief valves
and drain valves from freezing. If temperatures are consistently below 40°F
(4.4°C), consider installing an external crankcase heater kit, especially if the
compressor has diculty starting.
CAUTION
Never operate the compressor in temperatures below 20°F
(6.6°C) or above 104°F (40°C).
HUMID AREAS
In frequently humid areas, moisture may form in the pump and produce
sludge in the lubricant, causing running parts to wear out prematurely.
Excessive moisture is especially likely to occur if the unit is located in an
unheated area that is subject to large temperature changes.
Two signs of excessive humidity are external condensation on the pump
when it cools down and a“milky” appearance in petroleum lubricant.
You may be able to prevent moisture from forming in the pump by
increasing ventilation, operating for longer intervals or installing an
external crankcase heater kit.
NOISE CONSIDERATIONS
Consult local ocials for information regarding acceptable noise levels in
your area. To reduce excessive noise, use vibration isolator pads or intake
silencers, relocate the unit or construct total enclosures or bae walls.
MOUNTING
WARNING
Remove the unit from the skid before mounting.
Bolt the unit to a rm, level foundation (such as a concrete oor). Do not
bolt uneven feet tightly to the foundation, as this will cause excessive
stress on the receiver tank. Use metal shims under the “short” feet if
necessary.

TYPICAL PERMANENT MOUNTING (CUSTOMER SUPPLIED
HARDWARE)
INSTALLING REMOTE AIR INLET PIPING
CAUTION
Do not operate the unit without air inlet ltration.
If the air around the unit is relatively free of dirt, install the air inlet lter
at the inlet connection at the pump. If the air is dirty, pipe the lter to
a source of clean air. Use PVC plastic tubes for remote inlet piping. Do
not use black pipe or galvanized pipe, as these promote sweating and
rust. Consider installing an in-line type lter for ease of cleaning and
replacement. Make the line as short and direct as possible and as large,
or larger, than the diameter of the inlet connection on the pump. Do not
install piping with a diameter lower than that of the pump intake.
Increase the pipe diameter one size for every 10 feet (3 m) of length or
every 90° bend. Make sure the piping is adequately braced.
If you pipe the lter outdoors, cover it with a hood to prevent the entrance
of rain or snow.
Heavy duty lter elements and ltration equipment are available for ne
airborne dust, such as cement and rock dust.

INSTALLING DISCHARGE PIPING
WARNING
Do not use plastic pipe, soldered copper ttings, rubber hose, or
lead-tin soldered joints anywhere in the compressed air system.
