The Ingersoll Rand SWITCH SS5 (Model 23474661) is a genuine OEM pressure switch engineered to restore peak performance and reliable operation to Ingersoll Rand single-stage reciprocating air compressors. This critical component accurately monitors tank pressure, ensuring the compressor cycles on and off precisely to maintain consistent air supply for professional automotive and industrial applications. Designed for durability and consistent function, it prevents issues like short cycling and suboptimal performance caused by worn or faulty switches.
Key Features
- OEM Quality and Durability: As an Original Equipment Manufacturer part, the 23474661 is rated for higher amp draw and constructed for heavy-duty use, offering superior longevity and performance compared to aftermarket alternatives.
- Integrated On/Off Control: Features a pre-installed on/off lever for convenient manual operation and enhanced control over your compressor system.
- Built-in Unloader Valve: Includes a head unloader valve, which is swivel-based and adjustable, designed to release air pressure from the compressor head during shutdown, facilitating easier motor restarts.
- Pre-set Pressure Control: Factory-set with a cut-in pressure of 95-100 PSI and a cut-off pressure of 125-135 PSI, ensuring the compressor operates within optimal parameters. These settings are not user-adjustable to maintain system integrity.
- NEMA 1 Enclosure: Housed in a NEMA Type 1 enclosure, protecting internal electrical components from dust and incidental contact in indoor environments.
Applications
This pressure switch is essential for maintaining the operational efficiency and reliability of Ingersoll Rand SS3 and SS5 series single-stage reciprocating air compressors. It serves as a direct replacement for models such as the SS3L3, SS4L5, SS5L5, and SS5N5, ensuring consistent air pressure delivery in professional workshops, auto repair facilities, and various industrial settings where dependable compressed air is crucial. Timely replacement of a failing pressure switch prevents continuous running or inability to build pressure, safeguarding the compressor motor and system components.
