Questions

1–10 of 22 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. what is the noise level of this air compresor

    1. Kinda loud but it is a heavy-duty compressor meant to be used outdoors.

      Helpful?

    2. 80-82 DBA. Not nearly as noisy as my similar HF compressor, and this one fills much more quickly, runs more smoothly, and reaches a higher pressure.

      Helpful?

    3. It is a compressor so it isn't going to be silent. My shop vacuum is noisier then this.

      Helpful?

    4. The air compressor has a rating of 80-82 dba.

      Helpful?

  2. Do you recommend a break in period for the air compressor. i.e 30 minutes with air tank valve open

    1. The owners manual siad nothing about a break-in period, but Ingersoll Rand did include a bottle of break-in oil.

      Recently I purchase the 3 hp 60 gallon Ingersoll Rand compressor and the owners manual with that unit did say to run the compressor for 30 minutes with the drain valve in the open position. So I used the same procss for the small compressor.

      Helpful?

    2. According to instructions it tells you to do this. Doesn't hurt anything doing it. I did it just for peace of mind. Will it shorten the life? No because you are talking about 30 minutes for a 100% duty cycle product that will last well of 1000 hours or more if you take care of it.

      Helpful?

    3. It would be recommended to insert your oil filter, fill with oil, open the drain valve and let run for approximately 30 minutes to break in the motor and pump.

      Helpful?

  3. What's the recommended hose size?

    Is 1/4" the recommended hose size for this compressor? What would be the downside to upgrading to a 3/8" hose?

    1. I use a 50-ft 1/4 hose and it works fine. The 3/8" hose would work just as well but for more demanding jobs.

      Helpful?

    2. The hose size recommended is 1/4". The downside to upgrading to a 3/8" hose would be a higher CFM at a lower PSI.

      Helpful?

  4. What is the SCFM rating?

    1. The Ingersoll owners manual for this product says 4.3 cfm @90 psi and 3.2 cfm @ 135 psi. hope this helps. I have used this product with my finish nailer and it works fine.

      Helpful?

    2. The compressor is rated at 4.3 CFM at 90 PSI and 3.2 CFM at 135 PSI.

      Helpful?

  5. Does this IR Compressor mod P1lu-A9 start up in cold weather

    1. Never had a problem with it starting in Chicago winter. So yes, it will.

      Helpful?

    2. This compressor will start up in cold weather.

      Helpful?

  6. Are there actual current usage (surge and nominal) for this compressor?

    I have an outlet in my garage with a 15 Amp breaker and I'd like to know that I'm not going to continually trip it with this compressor.

    1. Running amps is rated at 15 amps. Would be better to have a 20 amp breaker for it.

      Helpful?

    2. A 20 amp circuit breaker is recommended.

      Helpful?

  7. is this unit American-made?

    1. This air compressor is manufactured in India.

      Helpful?

    2. No, the unit is not manufactured here in the U.S.A.

      Helpful?

  8. Can the motor be rewired for 220 volts?

    1 answer

    1. This air compressor cannot be rewired to 220 volts.

      Helpful?

  9. how long to pump up tank from empty

    1 answer

    1. The average fill time for the twin stack compressor is approximately 1.5 minutes from 0-135 PSI.

      Helpful?

  10. Can this compressor be kept out in the weather, as in rain won't hurt it.

    1 answer

    1. The compressor is not designed to be kept outdoors. It is recommended to use the compressor in a dry, well lighted area with plenty of space for proper cooling air flow and accessibility. Ideal temperature for use is 50 degrees F and 100 degrees F (10 degrees C to 37.8 degrees C).
