High-Quality Compressed Air for Vehicle Services Applications
The vehicle service and repair industry uses compressed air as a simple source for tasks such as powering pneumatic tools or supplying dry air for air brush painting. Shops also rely on air treatment products to keep moisture and dirt from entering the air system. There are several important factors that should be kept in mind when building a comprehensive compressed air system in order to deliver the best quality to customers.

Choosing the Right Air Compressor
Depending on how much compressed air is needed, depends on how big of an air compressor you will need. We offer Single-Stage and Two-Stage reciprocating air compressors. Single-stage models compress air to a final pressure in one stroke with pressures between 70 and 90 psi (max. pressure to 135 psi). Two-Stage models are more efficient and compress air to an intermediate pressure in the first stage, remove heat compression through an intercooler, and compress air to a final pressure in a second compression stage, with pressures above 100 psi (max. pressure to 175 psi).
Are you looking for a compressor that helps with noise reduction and can save money? You should think about investing in a Rotary Screw Compressor. These compressors can handle jobs that need a higher psi level than what reciprocating compressors can push out. Rotary Screw compressors range from 100 psi to 200 psi. Besides producing a higher psi, rotary screw compressors eliminate up to 80% of the traditional installation cost of individual air treatment equipment. This type of compressor comes equipped with a dryer, control panel, oil separator, dual filters (general purpose and high-efficiency), and condensate drain system.

No matter if your shop is just getting started, or you are expanding, Ingersoll Rand has the right power for all your vehicle service projects.
AIR TREATMENT & SUPPLY:
Let's be serious, an autoshop isn't the cleanest place. There is constantly dust in the air and various oils being used. When your compressor is running, it is collecting the dust in the shop and pushing it through your compressed air system. A compressor with dust particles, oil and water droplets only make the compressor to work harder, raising your energy costs.
Air Filtration
With our coalescing air filters and refrigerated dryers you will save energy and protect your compressors and tools from harmful contaminants by effectively removing solid particles, water, oil, and aerosols from compressed air.
Compressed Air Dryers
Did you know that over a summer month, you’ll have to remove at least 150 gallons of unwanted moisture in your air system due to high temperatures? Moisture wreaks havoc on your equipment, leading to unplanned downtime. Having dry air is especially important when it comes to painting vehicles. Having a refrigerated dryer installed to your system will clean up your lines and keep your operations running efficiently. A refrigerated dryer is the standard choice if you are looking for a low maintenance solution.
When it comes to industrial manufacturing, original equipment manufacturer(OEM) parts are an operator’s best choice to maintain maximum reliability and performance. Non-standard parts can expose equipment to unnecessary wear and tear that can lead to downtime and higher operating costs. If you want to protect the investment of your equipment, make sure to invest in the quality parts to keep it running. Ingersoll Rand has a complete offering of maintenance and OEM-quality compressor parts, such as lubricants, maintenance kits, replacement parts, filtration & condensation management and the expertise to keep your shop running.
Air compressors or components overheating and air leakage... You can successfully avoid these issues by adding lubricant and monitoring levels in your compressor are extremely important in making sure that your air compressor is running as efficient as possible.
You can also rely on Ingersoll Rand to enhance your shop’s air compressed system with our maintenance services and CARE programs such as PartsCARE to ensure you always have the quality OEM Parts you need for basic maintenance and PlannedCARE with trained technicians always ready to help you!
