Ingersoll Rand Electric Stationary Air Compressor, 3 HP, 10.3 CFM @ 135 PSI, 230 Volt, Model# SS3L3

Just fired mine up today for the first time to test it. It "walks" on a level concrete floor. You should secure it. It is also very tippy. I would recommend bolting it down.

This compressor will not run on 110 volts a/c. It will not operate the electical motor to power the compessor pump. Any attempt to wire it up to operate with 110 volts will result in an electical fire. The circuit breakers for the outlet you intent to use will have to be set up to handle the correct current load and the wire gauge will have to be rated for the same purpose.

1) use the start up kit and you can extend the warranty on the pump to 2 years 2)Unit has one connect but it is easy to put on a tee or a cross to give multiple connects 3) unit does require oil. If you want to use different pressures you will need to get a pressure regulator for one outlet.

At approximately 90-95 # for cut in.

Does not come with a plug, is actually recommended to hard wire in.

Yes, we do have a horizontal unit. The item # is 1592059.

Usually with an air compressor like this you will install hard lines. What I did was used a hose with 1/2NPT fittings to go to my filter/dryer which connected directly to the regulator then using black pipe (gas pipe) I made a manifold with valves and T's all 1/2 NPT. One goes to a hose for non oiled one goes to an oiler and then to the "air tool" hose. and then a drain at the bottom. Where I went to a hose I used again a reducer from the 1/2 NPT to the appropriate size. All fittings are just from the hardware store.

If you take precautions, like I do, it has worked for me for several years no problems in Michigan. I have mine in a large garage that normally is not heated. I have an auto-drain kit installed on the tank to keep any moisture from accumulating when running. I keep my oil changed at least twice a year or more. If the temps. are going to get really cold I always manualy open the valve on the bottom of the tank as well. I always make sure to get some heat up around the compressor motor until I know it is safe to operate the next day after a frigid night. I have done this for years, and never ran into any problems. I'm not in any way going pay for your air compressor if you have a problem, but I'm telling you how I do it.

You can go 100 feet away safely. As long as you can supply enough power and proper cable gauge. The voltage will drop a little but still very workable.
I have placed mine about 90 feet away using 230volt using doble pole 20A on 12 gauge wire.
(3 wires total including ground).

no, i would not use extension cord. Use doubel pole 20A (two 115 volt slot = 230volt) from the panel direct connect to the compressor. You may use a kill switch and then flex to the compressor. 2 hot wires and 1 ground. SAFTY FIRST !!!!
