Ingersoll Rand has expanded its contact-
cooled rotary screw air compressor line
with the R-Series 55-75 kW / 75-100 hp
range. The new range is available with
fixed speed or Nirvana variable speed
drives at up to 3.23-13.56 m3/min.
Ingersoll Rand compressor products
are exclusively distributed in Australia
by Compressed Air and Power Solutions
Australia (CAPS).
According to Dino Alessio, National Sales
Manager for CAPS: “The new machines
are equipped with the Xe-Series controller,
which features a high resolution LCD
colour display. The monitor provides
intuitive access to all vital compressor data
and settings. The controller also permits
remote control of the compressor from any
PC, tablet or smartphone via the Internet
and can send automatic email notifications
of trips and warnings to designated
personnel.”
The integrated Total Air System (TAS)
dryer and filtration option provides clean,
dry air in a single package, reducing

installation costs while allowing single-
point maintenance and monitoring for
the whole system. The Total Air System
option comes with refrigerated dryer
technology and a high efficiency coalescing
filter to deliver ISO Class 1-4-2 quality air.
The TAS option utilises a patented 3-in-1
heat exchanger, which improves energy
efficiency and lowers operating cost when
compared to traditional stand-alone
dryers.
In addition to the new Xe-Series
controller and TAS option, the 55-75 kW
R-Series range retains the same advanced
features introduced with the larger 90-
160
kW / 125-200 hp range. Progressive
Adaptive Control (PAC) protection is
an integrated, intelligent system that
monitors filtration, ambient temperature
and other parameters and adapts the
operation of the compressor in order to
reduce energy consumption, lower noise
and increase uptime. V-Shield technology
is a superior configuration using stainless
steel pipes, durable metal-flex hoses and

Rick Millar, Technical Manager for
Capital Safety Australia and New Zealand
said: “We have a stronger lighter
lanyard with a wider range of connector
options, and an unobtrusive shock
absorber that doesn’t get it in the way and
knock you about in the back of the head
while working, like some traditional shock
packs can do.
The Force2 Lanyard is constructed
a vibration isolation system to eliminate
possible leaks. Sequential cooling utilises
a centrifugal blower, which uses quieter
cooling fans to consume less energy.
