GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
The piping, fittings, air receiver tank, etc�� must be certified safe for at least
the maximum working pressure of the unit�� Use hard-welded or threaded
steel or copper pipes and cast iron fittings that are certified safe for the
unit’s discharge pressure and temperature�� DO NOT USE PVC PLASTIC�� Use
pipe thread sealant on all threads, and make up joints tightly to prevent air
leaks��
CONDENSATE DISCHARGE PIPING
If installing a condensate discharge line, the piping must be at least one
size larger than the connection, as short and direct as possible, secured
tightly and routed to a suitable drain point �� Condensate must be disposed
of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations��
NOTICE
All compressed air systems generate condensate which
accumulates in any drain point (e��g�� tanks, filters, drip legs,
aftercoolers, dryers)�� This condensate contains lubricating
oil and/or substances which may be regulated and must be
disposed of in accordance with local, state, and federal laws and
regulations��
ELECTRICAL WIRING
WARNING
Electrical installation and service should be performed by a
qualified electrician who is familiar with all applicable local, state
and federal laws and regulations��
NOTICE
This product should be connected to a grounded, metallic,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding termlnal
or lead on the product��
GENERAL
The motor rating, as shown on the motor nameplate, and the power
supply must have compatible voltage, phase and hertz characteristics��
WIRE SIZE
The electrical wiring between the power supply and electric motor varies
according to motor horsepower�� Power leads must be adequately sized



to protect against excessive voltage drop during start-up�� Information
for selecting the proper wire size and securing connections should be
provided with the motor�� If not, refer to the National Electric Code (NEC) or
applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations�� If other electrical
equipment is connected to the same circuit, the total electrical load must
be considered in selecting the proper wire size�� DO NOT USE UNDERSIZE
WIRE��
FUSES
Refer to the National Electric Code to determine the proper fuse or circuit
breaker rating required�� When selecting fuses, remember the momentary
starting current of an electric motor is greater than its full load current��
Time-delay or “slow-blow” fuses are recommended��
Single-Phase Wiring
T = Supply Line Terminal
L = Load Terminal
Fused disconnect or circuit breaker

COMPRESSOR LUBRICATION
CAUTION
Do not operate without lubricant or with inadequate lubricant��
Ingersoll Rand is not responsible for compressor failure caused
by inadequate lubrication��
SYNTHETIC LUBRICANT
We recommend
Ingersoll Rand
synthetic compressor lubricant from
start-up�� See the WARRANTY section for extended warranty information��
ALTERNATE LUBRICANTS
You may use a petroleum-based lubricant that is premium quality, does
not contain detergents, contains only anti-rust, anti-oxidation, and anti-
foam agents as additives, has a flashpoint of 440°F (227°C) or higher, and
has an auto-ignition point of 650°F (4°C) or higher��
See the petroleum lubricant viscosity table below�� The table is intended
as a general guide only�� Heavy duty operating conditions require
heavier viscosities�� Refer specific operating conditions to your dealer for
recommendations��

If you use a petroleum-based compressor lubricant at start-up and decide
to convert to
Ingersoll Rand
synthetic compressor lubricant later on, the
compressor valves must be thoroughly decarbonized and the crankcase
must be flushed before conversion��
