Ingersoll Rand 8229-3A Non-Reversible Air Power Motor is designed to deliver dependable pneumatic rotary power for industrial equipment requiring moderate operating speeds with increased torque output. Featuring a planetary gear system and single gear reduction, this air power motor is rated at 0.60 HP and operates at a free speed of 3,500 RPM. Its non-reversible configuration makes it ideal for OEM machinery, automated production equipment, packaging systems, and replacement applications where reliable one-direction pneumatic drive is required.
The 8229-3A develops 3.50 lb-ft of stall torque, representing the maximum torque generated when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. The planetary gear arrangement provides efficient power transmission while the single gear reduction delivers an excellent balance between rotational speed and available output torque, making this model suitable for a broad range of industrial pneumatic applications.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 8229-3A reversible?
A: No. This model is manufactured as a non-reversible air power motor for continuous operation in one rotational direction. - Q: What type of gearing does this motor use?
A: The 8229-3A utilizes a planetary gear system with single gear reduction. - Q: What is the rated operating speed?
A: The manufacturer specifies a free speed of 3,500 RPM. - Q: What does the 3.50 lb-ft stall torque specification indicate?
A: Stall torque is the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. It is intended as a performance reference rather than a continuous operating value. - Q: What should be verified before installing this motor?
A: Confirm horsepower, operating speed, rotation direction, gear configuration, shaft dimensions, mounting arrangement, and compressed-air requirements using the Ingersoll Rand Air Motor Catalog before installation.
