Ingersoll Rand 17RB029 Spur Gear Reversible Multi-Vane Air Motor is designed to provide dependable pneumatic rotary power for industrial applications requiring reversible operation, controlled low-speed performance, and substantial torque output. This air motor delivers 2.2 HP with a free speed of 187 RPM. Its spur gear and multi-vane configuration provides a pneumatic drive solution for compatible OEM machinery, production equipment, and rotary applications where bidirectional operation and controlled rotational speed are required.
The 17RB029 provides 120 ft-lbs of starting torque, indicating the torque required to initiate rotation from rest, and 201 ft-lbs of stall torque, representing the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. The reversible design allows operation in both rotational directions, while the 187 RPM free speed provides a low-speed option for applications requiring substantial torque capability.
