Ingersoll Rand 8229-6A Non-Reversible Air Power Motor is designed to deliver dependable low-speed pneumatic power for industrial equipment requiring increased torque and continuous one-direction operation. Featuring a planetary gear system with double gear reduction, this air power motor is rated at 0.60 HP and operates at a free speed of 1,000 RPM. Its compact geared design makes it well suited for OEM machinery, material handling systems, automated production equipment, and processing applications where higher output torque is required from a reliable pneumatic drive.
The 8229-6A develops 12.00 lb-ft of stall torque, representing the maximum torque generated when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. The double gear reduction design increases torque multiplication over single-reduction models, making this motor an excellent choice for applications that prioritize rotational force over maximum operating speed while maintaining consistent pneumatic performance.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 8229-6A 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 8229-6A features a planetary gear system with double gear reduction. - Q: What advantage does double gear reduction provide?
A: Double gear reduction increases torque multiplication compared to single-reduction models, making it well suited for applications requiring greater output torque at lower operating speeds. - Q: What does the 12.00 lb-ft stall torque specification indicate?
A: Stall torque is the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. It serves as a performance reference and should not be considered 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.
