Ingersoll Rand SM4AMAN-A SM Series Direct Drive Vane Air Motor is designed to provide dependable pneumatic rotary power for industrial machinery, automation, and equipment integration. This 1.5 HP lube-free air motor delivers a 7,900 RPM free speed, 2.6 lb-ft starting torque, and 4.1 lb-ft stall torque. Its direct-drive vane design provides responsive rotary power without traditional oil lubrication, making it well suited for applications where clean pneumatic operation is important.
The SM4AMAN-A is the NEMA-mounted configuration of the SM Series. Vane assist supports low-pressure operation, while the self-regulating cooling system helps maintain suitable operating temperatures, including in hot or humid environments. The motor also provides instant starting and stopping, easy throttling, and an auto-stop mechanism designed to help protect the motor during overload conditions.
