Ingersoll Rand Air Compressor SS3J5.5GH

The Ingersoll Rand SS3J5.5GH is an industrial air compressor. It falls under the category of the Super Series of air compressors produced by Ingersoll Rand. The SS3J5.5GH is a reciprocating piston compressor with a 5.5 HP motor that delivers compressed air at pressures ranging from 75 to 135 PSI. It has a capacity of 18.7 CFM at 90 PSI. The motor operates on 230V single phase power and draws 23 Amps in full load conditions. It uses a water-cooled system through a finned tube type intercooler and aftercooler. The pump is built with cast iron cylinders and a cast iron crankcase. Included with the compressor is an 80 gallon vertical air receiver tank, functioning as a reservoir for the compressed air.

The compressor operates by using a reciprocating piston driven by a crankshaft to draw in and compress air. The air is cooled between compression stages by the intercooler and after the second stage, it passes through the aftercooler before entering the receiver tank. This process removes moisture and improves the quality of the air. The compressor cycles on and off automatically to maintain reservoir pressure within a preset range, which keeps air available for industrial applications. Regular maintenance for the SS3J5.5GH includes changing the air filter and oil filter every 2,000 hours or 6 months, and changing the oil every 4,000 hours. Valves require adjustment after the first 50 hours of operation, and at the same interval, belt tension and cylinder head bolts should be checked.
