INGERSOLL-RAND SS5L5 Electric Air Compressor 1 Stage

Ingersoll Rand SS5L5 electric air compressor is used in various industrial and commercial applications. Its high efficiency and reliability make it ideal for powering pneumatic tools, such as impact wrenches, nail guns & spray guns, in automotive repair shops, construction sites and manufacturing facilities. Additionally, it finds utility in inflating tyres, operating air-operated machinery and supplying clean compressed air for painting and sandblasting operations.

Working Mechanism:

• Ingersoll Rand SS5L5 electric air compressor operates by drawing in ambient air through an inlet valve.
• This air is then compressed by a reciprocating pump, driven by an electric motor.
• As the piston moves up and down within the cylinder, it compresses the air, increasing its pressure.
• The compressed air is then stored in the vertical tank until it's needed for use.
• When the pressure in the tank drops below a certain level, the pressure switch activates the motor to start the compressor cycle again, ensuring a continuous supply of compressed air.

Features:

• It offers a vertical tank style, which saves space and provides stability in different environments.
• This electric air compressor has a 60-gallon tank size, providing ample compressed air storage for prolonged use without interruptions.
• It includes essential accessories, such as a manual drain valve, oil sight glass, pressure gauge and pressure safety valve, ensuring efficient operation and maintenance.
• It comes with a splash-lubricated pump, providing effective lubrication for extended pump life and reduced maintenance needs.
• This electric air compressor utilises a pressure switch control for automating compressor operation for user convenience.
• It features cast iron cylinder material to provide durability and resistance to wear.
• This electric air compressor has a maximum operating pressure of 135 psi, handling demanding tasks with ease.
• It features an open drip-proof enclosure, facilitating airflow for cooling and has a NEMA 1 enclosure rating, offering protection against solid objects.
• This electric air compressor utilises a simplex pump style, ensuring straightforward operation and maintenance.
