GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION

This manual provides safe and reliable instructions for the installation,

operation and maintenance of your Ingersoll-Rand air compressor.

Carefully read this manual before attempting to operate or perform any

maintenance. If you are uncertain about any of the instructions or

procedures provided in this manual, contact Ingersoll-Rand. We

recommend you retain this manual, and all publications provided with

your air compressor, in a location which is accessible to all personnel

who operate and service your compressed air equipment.

APPLICATION

Ingersoll-Rand’s standard two-stage lubricated air compressors are

single-acting, air-cooled machines. Typical compressors are furnished

as compact, self-contained, air receiver tank mounted units that are

automatically regulated and driven by an electric motor. An air-cooled

aftercooler, low oil level shutdown switch and automatic drain valve

are among the optional accessories that can be furnished. Bare

compressor pumps and baseplate-mounted units are also available.

These compressors may be used for a variety of compressed air

application up to 250 PSIG (17.5 kg/cm²). Application of these

compressors as either a primary or supplementary source of air is

virtually unlimited in industrial plants, service stations and auto repair

shops. Supplementary service includes such uses as furnishing air at

pressure not carried in regular shop lines, air at isolated locations, and

standby service for air when larger compressors are shut down.

TWO-STAGE OPERATION

The basic principle of operation is as follows: On the suction stroke of

the first-stage piston(s), air at atmospheric pressure enters the

cylinders through the inlet filter(s) and then the inlet valves located in

the head. On the compression stroke of the first-stage piston(s), the air

is compressed to an intermediate pressure and discharged through the

discharge valves(s) into common manifold(s). From the manifold(s) the

air passes through the intercooler tubes, where the heat of first-stage

compression is removed. On the suction stroke of the second-stage

piston this cooled air enters the second-stage cylinder through the inlet

valve. The compression stroke of the second-stage piston compresses

the air to the final discharge pressure and forces it out through the

discharge valve into the receiver tank or system. If cooling of the

discharge air is required, an air-cooled aftercooler should be installed

between the compressor discharge and the receiver tank or system.

For maintaining the receiver tank or system air pressure within

predetermined limits, the compressor may be operated with automatic

start & stop control or constant speed control regulation. The type of

regulation used depends upon the application.

ADDITIONAL REFERENCES

Unless otherwise stated, dimensions, weights and measurements are

provided in standard U.S. measure followed in parentheses by the

metric conversion. Any torque values given are stated in inch or foot

pounds followed by the Newton-meter equivalent in parentheses.

Electrical characteristics are given in voltage-phase-hertz.

RECEIPT & INSPECTION

Ensure adequate lifting equipment is available for unloading and

moving the unit to the installation site.

NOTE Lifting equipment must be properly rated for the

weight of the unit.

aCAUTION Lift the unit by the shipping skid only. Do not use

the motor lifting eye to lift the entire unit. The

motor lifting eye is for removing the motor from

the unit only.

aCAUTION! Do not work on or walk under the unit while it

is suspended.

Use suitable lifting equipment (i.e. forklift) to lift and transport the unit

to the installation site. Ensure the lifting equipment, straps, etc. are

capable of supporting the weight of the unit.

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 unit (concealed damage), the

carrier must be notified within 15 days of receipt and an inspection must

be requested by telephone with confirmation in writing. On concealed

damage claims, the burden of establishing that the unit 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

ELECTRIC MOTOR UNITS. For most electric motor units, select a

relatively clean and dry well-lighted indoor area with plenty of space for

proper ventilation, cooling air flow 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

identified 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 FOR UNITS EQUIPPED

WITH ELECTRIC DRAIN VALVE

aWARNING 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 floor.

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 difficulty starting.

aCAUTION Never operate the compressor in temperatures

below -15°F (-26.1°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 officials 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 baffle walls.

MOUNTING

aWARNING Remove the unit from the skid before mounting.

The compressor must be bolted to a firm, level, solid foundation (such

as a concrete floor) using the vibration isolation pads provided with

the compressor. Installation on I-beams, open-grid flooring systems, or

non-solid surfaces is not recommended.

Failure to install the unit using the pads provided with the unit and in

accordance with the installation instructions as outlined in the

operator's manual may result in mechanical failure to the compressor

and cancellation of package warranty coverage. Ingersoll-Rand shall

bear no responsibility for equipment installed on non-approved

vibration isolation mounts or non-solid surfaces.

To mount the unit, use the following procedure:

1. Mark the location of the mounting holes.

2. Drill 2-1/4" deep holes using a concrete drill bit sized per the

following table.

Tank Size Drill Bit

(Gal.) Size

120 1/2"

240 5/8"

NOTE: It may be helpful to use a piece of tape on the

drill bit to mark the proper depth.

3. Drill a hole through the center of each isolation pad.

4. Drive the anchors into the mounting holes with the threaded portion

up.

5. Place the isolation pads over the anchors as shown in the

illustration below.

6. Position the compressor over the drilled holes and slowly lower the

unit to the isolation pads.

7. Bolt the compressor to the floor using the 4" long bolts provided.

Torque each bolt in a criss-cross pattern to 10 ft lb.

After the unit has been anchored into position, check the unit for level

by placing a level on the subbase and checking the readings from

side-to-side and from front-to-back. Use metal shims under the "short"

feet if necessary to obtain level.

INSTALLING REMOTE AIR INLET PIPING

aCAUTION Do not operate the unit without air inlet

filtration.

If the air around the unit is relatively free of dirt, install the air inlet filter

at the inlet connection at the pump. If the air is dirty, pipe the filter 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 filter 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 filter outdoors, cover it with a hood to prevent the

entrance of rain or snow.

Heavy duty filter elements and filtration equipment are available for fine

airborne dust, such as cement and rock dust.

INSTALLING DISCHARGE PIPING

aWARNING Do not use plastic pipe, soldered copper

fittings, rubber hose, or lead-tin soldered

joints anywhere in the compressed air

system.

aCAUTION! If you will be using synthetic compressor

lubricant, all downstream piping material and

system components must be compatible. Refer to

the following material compatibility list. If there

are incompatible materials present in your

CONDENSATE DISCHARGE PIPING. If installing a condensate

discharge line, the piping must be at least one size larger than the

connection, as short and direct as possible, secured tightly and routed

to a suitable drain point or waste container. Condensate must be

disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and

regulations.

aWARNING If an aftercooler, check valve, block valve, or

any other restriction is added to the

compressor discharge, install a properly-

sized ASME approved safety/relief valve

between the compressor discharge and the

restriction.

INSTALLING ELECTRICAL WIRING (ELECTRIC MOTOR UNITS)

aWARNING Electrical installation and service should be

performed by a qualified electrician who is

familiar with all applicable local, state and

federal laws and regulations.

GENERAL. The motor rating, as shown on the motor nameplate, and

the power supply must have compatible voltage, phase and hertz

characteristics.

WIRE SIZE. The electrical wiring between the power supply and

electric motor varies according to motor horsepower and other

factors. Install adequately sized power leads to protect against

excessive voltage drop during start-up. Refer to the National Electric

Code (NEC) for information on selecting the proper wire size and

securing electrical connections. If you connect additional electrical

equipment to the same circuit, consider the total electrical load when

selecting the proper wire size. DO NOT USE UNDERSIZE WIRE.

If wire size information is not available, the wire sizes shown in the

following wire selection chart can be used as a safe guide, if the

distance does not exceed 50 feet (15.3 m). For longer distances,

consult and electrical contractor or the local electric company for

recommendations.

MAGNETIC STARTER. If the motor installed on your unit has a motor

reset button, it does not require a magnetic starter. If the motor does

not have this button and the unit does not have a factory-installed

starter, install a magnetic starter with thermal overload protection.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation. Ingersoll-Rand

cannot accept responsibility for damages arising from failure to provide

adequate motor protection.

FUSES. Refer to the NEC to determine the proper fuse or circuit

breaker rating required. When selecting fuses, remember the

momentary starting current of an electric motor is greater than its full

load current. Time-delay or “slow-blow” fuses are recommended.

PRESSURE SWITCH. On units without a factory-installed pressure

switch, wire a pressure switch in accordance with the appropriate

wiring schematic in the DIAGRAMS section of this manual. Mount the

pressure switch in accordance with the manufacturer’s

recommendations. The connecting line to the receiver tank must be as

short and direct as possible, and certified safe for at least the maximum

working pressure of the unit.

COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION

aCAUTION Do not operate without lubricant or with

inadequate lubricant. Ingersoll-Rand is not

responsible for compressor failure caused by

inadequate lubrication.

SYNTHETIC COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT. Ingersoll-Rand recommends

All-Season Select

®

synthetic lubricant from start-up.

ALTERNATE LUBRICANTS. You may use XL-300 or a comparable

petroleum-based lubricant that is premium quality, does not contain

detergents, contains only anti-rust, anti-oxidation, and anti-foam

agents as additives, has a flashpoint of 440°F (227°C) or higher, and

has an auto-ignition point of 650°F (343°C) or higher.

See the petroleum lubricant viscosity table below. The table is intended

as a general guide only. Heavy duty operating conditions require

heavier viscosities. Refer specific operating conditions to

Ingersoll-Rand for recommendations.

80-125 26.7-51.0 750 165 150 40

* = For Models 2000 and 2000P, use Ingersoll-Rand XL-740HT

Compressor Oil in temperatures above 100°F (37.7°C).

If you use a petroleum-based compressor lubricant at start-up and

decide to convert to All-Season Select

®

later on, the pump must be

decarbonized and flushed before conversion. Contact Ingersoll-Rand

for more information.

FILLING PROCEDURES:

1. Unscrew and remove the oil fill plug.

2. Fill the crankcase with lubricant.

3. Replace the oil fill plug HAND TIGHT ONLY.

aCAUTION Do not remove the oil fill plug while the

compressor is running.

Refer to the following table for crankcase capacity.

Model Crankcase Capacity

Use one of the following methods illustrated to determine when the

crankcase is full.

A = FULL level

B = ADD level

http://air.irco.com

LOW OIL LEVEL SWITCH

A float activated low oil level switch may be installed to protect your

unit against damage due to insufficient compressor oil level. Low oil

level in the compressor crankcase causes the switch contacts to

open, thus shutting the unit down until the proper oil level has been

restored.

Proper protection against low oil level depends on proper adjustment

of the low oil level switch. During the initial run, stop the unit and drain

one quart of oil from the compressor crankcase into a suitable clean

container. Listen for the switch to click or check the switch with a

continuity tester.

The float sometimes gets cocked or stuck during shipping. If the float is

cocked or stuck, open the disconnect switch, drain the remaining oil,

remove the crankcase cover and then free the float. Reassemble and

then reuse the same oil.

NOTE If the float is cocked in the low position, the unit

cannot start.

OPERATION

INTERMITTENT DUTY FORMULA

Units operating above 200 PSIG are to be operated according to the

"Intermittent Duty Formula."

INTERMITTENT DUTY FORMULA

Pump-up time should not ordinarily exceed thirty (30)

minutes or be less than ten (10) minutes. Shutdown

periods between cycles of operation should be at

least equal to the pump-up time. Note: When the

compressor is regulated by constant speed control,

the shutdown period is the time the compressor is

operating unloaded.

A pump-up time limit with the following cool-down period is

recommended to protect the valves and heads against stabilized high

operating temperatures, which could rapidly build up carbon in these

areas.

All inquiries for high-pressure compressor application where the "use"

cycle differs from the "Intermittent Duty Formula" should be referred to

Ingersoll-Rand.

START-UP (ELECTRIC MOTOR DRIVEN MODLES)

1. Close the service valve.

2. Release any remaining tank pressure by slowly opening the

manual drain valve.

3. Close the manual drain valve and apply power to the compressor.

If the pressure switch is equipped with an “ON/AUTO-OFF” lever,

flip the switch to the “ON/AUTO” position. If the unit is equipped

with a control panel “ON/OFF” switch, move the switch to the “ON”

position.

Typical Pressure Switch

4. Slowly open the service valve.

Typical Service Valve (A = Open, B = Closed)

aCAUTION Unusual noise or vibration indicates a

problem. Do not continue to operate until you

identify and correct the source of the

problem.

NOTE Ensure the direction of rotation is correct per

the arrow on the motor. If the rotation is

incorrect on three-phase units, interchange

any two of the three leads.

COMPRESSOR CONTROLS

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE. Select either automatic start and stop

control or constant speed control by adjusting the knob on the auxiliary

valve. For automatic start and stop control, turn the knob on the

auxiliary valve fully clockwise to disable the auxiliary valve. The

pressure switch will then start and stop the unit.

NOTE For dual control models, automatic start and

stop is preferred.

Auxiliary Valve.

Select constant speed control if the unit restarts in less than 10 minute

intervals or runs more than 40 minutes per hour. Turn the knob fully

counterclockwise to run the unit continually.

NOTE The auxiliary valve is factory pre-set at 5 PSIG

lower than the factory pressure switch

setting.

NOTE Automatic Start & Stop Control is intended for

use when the motor will start no more than 6

times per hour.

aCAUTION Running unloaded for more than 20 minutes

per hour or more than 15 minutes continually

with the use of constant speed control will

cause oil pumping and should be avoided.

PRESSURE SWITCH ADJUSTMENT

aWARNING High voltage is present at the pressure switch

contacts when the power supply is

connected. Disconnect, lock and tag main

power supply before making adjustments.

aCAUTION Do not adjust the pressure switch to exceed

the maximum discharge pressure of the unit.

NOTE Adjust the pressure switch only if

adjustments are absolutely necessary.

CUT-IN & CUT-OUT. The cut-out (compressor shut-down) is the

pressure at which the switch contacts open, and the cut-in (compressor

restart) is the pressure at which the switch contacts close.

ADJUSTMENT CONTROLS. All pressure switches have a range

adjustment control (A). Some pressure switches also have a differential

adjustment (B) control. On switches without a differential adjustment

control, the span between cut-in and cut-out pressure levels switches

is factory set for 40 ± 4 PSIG and cannot be adjusted.

NOTE Some pressure switches are equipped with

an on-off lever used to open and close the

electrical contacts inside the switch. THIS

LEVER IS NOT A DIFFERENTIAL ADJUSTMENT

CONTROL. The pressure switches with the on-

off lever do not have a differential adjustment

control.

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES (SWITCHES WITHOUT DIFFERENTIAL

ADJUSTMENT CONTROL):

1. Remove the pressure switch cover.

2. Adjust the range by turning the range adjustment screw clockwise

(in) to increase the cut-out point or counter-clockwise (out) to

decrease the cut-out point.

NOTE: One full turn changes the setting

approximately 2 PSIG.

3. Replace cover, reconnect power supply and start the compressor.

4. Note the pressure gauge reading at which the compressor cuts out.

5. Repeat adjustment procedure if necessary.

Pressure Switch Range Adjustment

ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES (SWITCHES WITH DIFFERENTIAL

ADJUSTMENT CONTROL):

1. Remove the pressure switch cover.

2. Set the cut-in pressure with the range adjustment nut. Turn the nut

clockwise (in) to increase the pressure or counter-clockwise (out) to

decrease the pressure.

NOTE: One full turn changes the setting

approximately 2 PSIG.

3. Set the cut-out pressure with the differential adjustment. Turn the

differential adjustment nut clockwise (in) to increase the pressure

or counter-clockwise (out) to decrease the pressure.

NOTE: One full turn changes the setting

approximately 2 PSIG.

4. Replace the cover, reconnect the power supply and start the unit.

5. Note the pressure gauge reading at which the unit cuts out.

6. Repeat the adjustment procedure if necessary.

The minimum possible differential is approximately 20% of cutout

pressure. It is advisable to have as wide a differential as possible to

avoid frequent starting and stopping of the unit. Note the pressure

gauge reading at which the unit cuts-out and re-establish this point if

necessary.

Note the interaction between the range and differential adjustments,

i.e., if the cut-out is increased, the differential will also increase, or if the

differential is narrowed, the cut-out will be reduced, etc. These factors

must be considered when adjusting the switch and compensated for

accordingly.

ELECTRIC DRAIN TIMER SETTINGS

The "time off" setting determines the interval between cycles from

30 seconds to 45 minutes. The "time on" setting determines the actual

time the compressor drains condensate from the 1/4" or 1/2”

condensate outlet port.

The timer’s cycle rate and drain opening time should be adjusted to

open just long enough to discharge the condensate. The timer is

properly set when it opens and discharges condensate and then

vents air for approximately one second before closing. Adjustments

may be made depending on many factors, including humidity and duty

cycle.

OIL PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT (MODEL 2000P)

For pressure lubricated compressors, the oil pressure should be

checked upon start-up by observing the oil pressure gauge. The

acceptable operating range is 15-40 psig. It is normal for the oil

pressure to vary slightly with oil temperature. Compressors equipped

with an optional low oil pressure shutdown system will automatically

shut down if the oil pressure drops below 10 psig.

The oil pump is equipped with an adjustable pressure regulator which

may be reset if conditions warrant. Refer to the following illustration

and instructions:

1. Use an adjustable wrench to remove the knurled cover for the

valve on the right side of the oil pump housing (A).

2. Loosen the retaining nut (B) with a 7/16” wrench such that the

threaded rod (C) is free to rotate.

3. Using a 1/8” hex key, adjust the threaded rod to the desired setting.

Turning the rod clockwise increases the oil pressure setting, and

turning the rod counterclockwise decreases the oil pressure.

4. When the oil pressure is set, tighten the retaining nut and replace

the knurled cover.

STARTING UNLOADING SYSTEM (MODEL 2000)

The purpose of the system is to relieve cylinder pressure when the

unit stops, permitting it to start against a light load. A light load

increases the life of the driver and belts and also reduces the

possibility of tripping the overload relay. The system operates in the

following manner:

The centrifugal unloader is attached to the end of the crankshaft as

shown in the following illustrations.

When the unit starts, centrifugal force acts upon the unloader weights

and they swing outward. This permits the plunger and thrust pin to

move inward and the pilot valve to close. The escape path to

atmosphere for the cylinder pressure is now closed and the

compressor pumps air in a normal manner.

When the unit stops, the weights retract, permitting the thrust pin

spring to move the plunger and thrust pin outward. The thrust pin

opens the pilot valve and the trapped air pressure escapes from the

cylinder and intercooler through a passage in the frame end cover,

through the unloader tube and to atmosphere through the inlet

filter/silencer.

Position of weight and thrust pin when unit is operating.

Position of weight and thrust pin when unit is stopped.

STARTING UNLOADING SYSTEM (2000P)

Pressure lubricated compressors use a hydraulic unloader system to

provide loadless starting. This system has the added feature of

providing emergency unloading should oil pressure be lost during

compressor operation.

The hydraulic unloader circuit bypasses the auxiliary valve (H) to

direct control air to the head unloaders when oil pressure is lost. This

circuit is controlled by the hydraulic unloader valve (E), a normally

open valve that closes on rising oil pressure. During compressor

operation, the oil pressure holds the hydraulic unloader valve closed.

Head unloader actuation is controlled by the auxiliary valve.

When oil pressure is lost, either due to compressor shutdown or to a

lubrication problem during compressor operation, the hydraulic

unloader opens, actuating the head unloaders (F). This action will

either vent the shut down compressor in preparation for the next

start-up or release compression load to minimize damage if oil

pressure is lost while the compressor is running.

PILOT VALVE ADJUSTMENT

If the pilot valve tube line is excessively hot, it is a good indication that

the pilot valve is leaking and adjustment is required.

To adjust the pilot valve, proceed as follows:

1. Stop the unit and disconnect and tag the electrical supply main

switch to prevent accidental start-up.

2. Remove the pilot valve tube and the tube fittings.

3. Remove the pilot valve body and all existing shims.

4. Screw the pilot valve body back into the frame end cover (without

any shims) until contact with the thrust pin is felt. Advance the pilot

valve body 1/4 to 1/2 turn more.

If contact with the thrust pin cannot be felt, the following steps may be

necessary to locate the contact point:

1. Insert a small instrument (punch, rod, nail, etc.) into the end of the

pilot valve until it contacts the valve stem.

2. While still inserted in the pilot valve, make a mark on the instrument

even with the outside edge of the pilot valve body.

3. Keeping the instrument pressed lightly against the valve stem,

screw the pilot valve body into the frame end cover. When the

mark on the instrument starts moving out away from the edge of

the pilot valve body, contact has been made with the thrust pin.

4. Advance the pilot valve body 1/4 to 1/2 turn more and proceed

with step five.

5. Measure the gap between the pilot valve body and the frame end

cover.

6. Remove the pilot valve body and add enough shims to fill the gap

measured in step five.

7. Screw the pilot valve body back into the frame end cover until the

body is tight on the shims.

8. Reconnect the pilot valve tube and tube fittings.

FILTER INSPECTION & CLEANING

1. Loosen the clamps securing the filter housing to its base.

2. Remove the filter housing and withdraw the old filter element.

Clean the element with a jet of air or vacuum.

3. Replace the filter element and housing.

OIL CHANGE

1. Remove the oil drain plug and allow the lubricant to drain into a

suitable container.

2. Replace the oil drain plug.

3. Follow the filling procedures in INSTALLATION section.

BREATHER/UNLOADER BY-PASS

The breather/unloader by-pass tube lines eliminates air pressure build-

up in the compressor frame by providing a passage for the air to

escape through the inlet unloader (if opened) or (if closed) through the

check valve, therefore, by-passing the inlet unloader and escaping to

atmosphere through the inlet filter/silencer.

OIL CONSUMPTION CHECK

A rule of thumb in determining a “passing grade” for oil consumption is

to consider consumption at or above 50 horsepower-hours per ounce

to be acceptable.

The formula is as follows:

Horsepower X Hours of Operation = Horsepower Hours

Ounces of Oil Used per Ounce

To apply this formula, consider the size of the machine. In the following

example, a 5 horsepower compressor uses 2 ounces of oil every

20 hours of operation.

5 Horsepower X 20 Hours of = 50 Horsepower

Operation Hours per Ounce

2 Ounces of Oil Used

The compressor in the example passes the oil consumption test.

NOTE New or rebuilt compressor pumps will

discharge higher than normal amounts of oil

until the piston rings are seated

(approximately 100 operating hours).

MAINTENANCE

aWARNING Before performing maintenance, release air

pressure from the system and disconnect,

lock and tag the main power supply or

disconnect the wire from the engine spark

plug.

NOTE All compressed air systems contain

maintenance parts (e.g. lubricating oil, filters,

separators) which are periodically replaced.

These used parts may be, or may contain,

substances that are regulated and must be

disposed of in accordance with local, state,

and federal laws and regulations.

NOTE Take note of the positions and locations of

parts during disassembly to make

reassembly easier. The assembly sequences

and parts illustrated may differ for your

particular unit.

NOTE Any service operations not explained in this

manual should be performed by an authorized

service representative.

NOTE The following maintenance schedule has been

developed for typical applications.

Maintenance intervals should be shortened in

harsher environments.

To prevent these problems from occurring, ensure the pulley and

sheave are aligned and belt tension is satisfactory after installing new

belts or tensioning existing belts.

ELECTRIC DRAIN MAINTENANCE

NOTE: The following maintenance schedule has been

developed for typical applications.

Maintenance intervals should be shortened in

harsher environments.

DRAIN VALVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

DAILY Test the valve for proper

operation. Clean the filter

screen if needed.

MONTHLY (EVERY 30 DAYS) Clean the filter screen.

To clean the filter screen, perform the following steps:

1. Close the strainer ball valve completely to isolate it from the air

receiver tank.

2. Press the TEST button on the timer to vent the pressure remaining

in the valve. Repeat until all pressure is removed.

aCAUTION! High pressure air can cause injury from flying

debris. Ensure the strainer ball valve is

completely closed and pressure is released

from the valve prior to cleaning.

3. Remove the plug from the strainer with a suitable wrench. If you

hear air escaping from the cleaning port, STOP IMMEDIATELY and

repeat steps 1 and 2.

4. Remove the stainless steel filter screen and clean it. Remove any

debris that may be in the strainer body before replacing the filter

screen.

5. Replace plug and tighten with wrench.

Strainer Ball Valve

6. When putting the EDV-2000 back into service, press the TEST

button to confirm proper function.

TANK INSPECTION

The life of an air receiver tank is dependent upon several factors

including, but not limited to, operating conditions, ambient

environments, and the level of maintenance. The exact effect of these

factors on tank life is difficult to predict; therefore, Ingersoll-Rand

recommends that you schedule a certified tank inspection within the

first five years of compressor service. To arrange a tank inspection,

contact Ingersoll-Rand.

If the tank has not been inspected within the first 10 years of

compressor service, the receiver must be taken out of service

until it has passed inspection. Tanks that fail to meet requirements

must be replaced.

aWARNING Failure to replace a rusted air receiver tank

could result in air receiver tank rupture or

explosion, which could cause substantial

property damage, severe personal injury, or

death. Never modify or repair tank. Obtain

replacement from service center.

BELT ADJUSTMENT

CHECKING BELT TENSION. Check belt tension should be occasionally,

especially if looseness is suspected. New belts must also be properly

tensioned upon installation.

TENSIONING BELTS. Belt tensioning can be achieved by loosening the

motor anchor screws, pushing the motor away from the pump, and

retightening the motor anchor screws. Some units are equipped with a

belt tensioning bolt that, when turned, pulls the motor away from the

pump. Otherwise, the motor can be easily moved by placing a prying

tool beneath it. A commercially available spreader or other belt

tensioning device can also be helpful.

Follow the procedures outlined below to correctly set and measure

tension.

1. Measure the span length (t) of the drive.

2. Determine the amount of deflection (in inches) required to measure

deflection force (in pounds) by multiplying the span length (t) by 1/

64. For example, a 32” span length multiplied by 1/64 equals 1/2” of

deflection required to measure deflection force.

3. Lay a straight edge across the top outer surface of the belt drive

from pulley to sheave.

4. At the center of the span, perpendicular to the belt, apply pressure

to the outer surface of the belt with a tension gauge. Force the belt

to the predetermined deflection calculated in step 2. Compare the

reading on the tension gauge to the BELT TENSION TABLE in the

DIAGRAMS & TABLES section.

Ensure the pulley and sheave are properly aligned and the motor

anchor screws are adequately retightened prior to restarting the

compressor.

aCAUTION Improper pulley/sheave alignment and belt

tension can result in motor overload,

excessive vibration, and premature belt and/or

bearing failure.
