Ingersoll Rand has an extensive knowledge in designing and delivering compressed air systems to meet the unique needs of vehicle services shops
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.
Automotive repair shops should keep several important factors in mind when building a comprehensive compressed air system. We share best practices that can help achieve an efficient, reliable comfortable and safe environment. Download our infographic to learn more!
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.
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 air reciprocating 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).
Still not sure which air compressor is the best fit for your needs? Try our
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, it eliminates up to 80% of traditional installation cost of individual air treatment equipment. These compressors come equip with an dryer, control panel, oil separator, dual filters (general purpose and high-efficiency), and condensate drain system.
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.
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.
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.
