Ingersoll Rand 8228-6B Reversible Air Power Motor is designed to provide dependable pneumatic rotary power for industrial applications requiring high output torque, low operating speed, and bidirectional rotation. Rated at 0.50 HP, this air power motor operates at a free speed of 650 RPM and incorporates double gear reduction to deliver enhanced torque while maintaining smooth, efficient performance. Its reversible configuration enables clockwise and counterclockwise shaft rotation, making it well suited for OEM equipment, automated production machinery, positioning systems, material handling equipment, and industrial processing applications requiring directional flexibility.
The 8228-6B develops 13.80 ft-lbs of stall torque, representing the maximum torque generated when the output shaft is prevented from rotating. The double gear reduction design provides substantial torque multiplication, making this motor an excellent choice for demanding applications where increased rotational force and controlled operating speed are required.

FAQs:
- Q: Is the Ingersoll Rand 8228-6B reversible?
A: Yes. This model is designed to operate in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. - Q: What is the advantage of double gear reduction?
A: Double gear reduction increases output torque while lowering operating speed, making the motor well suited for applications requiring higher rotational force. - Q: What is the rated operating speed?
A: The manufacturer specifies a free speed of 650 RPM. - Q: What does the 13.80 ft-lbs 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 torque. - Q: What should be verified before installation?
A: Confirm horsepower, operating speed, rotation direction, gear reduction, shaft dimensions, mounting arrangement, and compressed-air requirements using the Ingersoll Rand Air Motor Catalog before installation.
