Ingersoll Rand 4840Q Reversible Multi-Vane Air Motor is designed to provide dependable pneumatic rotary power for industrial applications requiring high torque output, controlled operating speed, and bidirectional operation. Part of the 4800 Series, this air motor delivers 3 HP with a free speed of 350 RPM. Its multi-vane design converts compressed air into smooth, continuous rotary motion, while the reversible configuration allows clockwise and counterclockwise operation for equipment requiring flexible directional control.
The 4840Q provides 123 ft-lbs starting torque, offering strong breakaway capability to initiate rotation under loaded conditions, and 165 ft-lbs stall torque, representing the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. With its combination of horsepower, controlled low-speed operation, high torque capability, and reversible functionality, this air motor is suited for OEM machinery, production equipment, rotary drive systems, material handling equipment, and other applications requiring reliable compressed-air power with directional flexibility.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 4840Q reversible?
A: Yes. This model is specified as a reversible air motor and can operate in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. - Q: What is a multi-vane air motor?
A: A multi-vane air motor uses sliding vanes inside a rotor to convert compressed air into smooth rotary motion. - Q: What is the rated free speed of the 4840Q?
A: The manufacturer specifies a free speed of 350 RPM. - Q: What is the difference between starting torque and stall torque?
A: Starting torque is the torque available to begin rotating a load from rest, while stall torque is the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. - Q: What should be verified before installation?
A: Confirm horsepower, speed requirements, rotation direction, shaft dimensions, mounting configuration, and compressed-air requirements using the Ingersoll Rand Air Motor Catalog before installation.
