Ingersoll Rand 1801N Non-Reversible Multi-Vane Air Motor is engineered to deliver reliable pneumatic rotary power for industrial equipment requiring a combination of moderate operating speed and strong output torque. Producing 1.40 HP with a free speed of 1,990 RPM, this 1801 Series air motor utilizes a durable multi-vane design that provides smooth power delivery and dependable performance in continuous-duty industrial applications. Its non-reversible configuration offers consistent single-direction rotation, making it well suited for OEM machinery, conveyors, mixers, packaging equipment, and other compressed-air powered systems.
The 1801N develops a 10.5 lb-ft starting torque, providing strong breakaway torque to help initiate rotation under load, and a 14 lb-ft stall torque, representing the maximum torque produced when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. This combination of horsepower, torque, and controlled speed makes the motor suitable for applications requiring dependable pneumatic power with steady rotary performance.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 1801N reversible?
A: No. This model is a non-reversible air motor designed for continuous operation in one direction. - 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, continuous rotary motion with consistent torque output. - Q: What is the rated free speed?
A: The manufacturer specifies a free speed of 1,990 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 the motor develops when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. - Q: What should be verified before installation?
A: Confirm horsepower, free speed, rotation direction, shaft dimensions, mounting arrangement, and compressed-air requirements using the Ingersoll Rand Air Motor Catalog before installation.
