Description
Ingersoll Rand Type 30 Model 15T Two-Stage Bare Pump Air Compressor
The Ingersoll Rand Type 30 Model 15T two-stage bare compressor pump is a compact industrial unit built for reliability and longevity in small commercial and light manufacturing settings. Despite its smaller size, the 15T incorporates the same proven cast-iron construction, balanced crankshaft, and dual-stage compression design that define the Type 30 series. Engineered for applications where steady air pressure and long service life matter most, this pump is ideal for single-tool workstations, small assembly lines, and OEM compressor systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ingersoll Rand Type 30 Model 15T Two-Stage Bare Pump Air Compressor
Answer: The 15T produces approximately 8–10 CFM at 175 PSI when paired with a 1.5–3 HP motor. It’s a smaller two-stage unit designed for compact compressor builds or light-duty industrial systems that need reliable high-pressure air.
Answer: The 15T shares the same two-stage cast-iron construction as larger Type 30 pumps but is more compact and energy efficient. It’s ideal for smaller installations, OEM systems, or applications where space and power are limited.
Answer: Yes, within its rated duty cycle and cooling limits. When properly maintained and ventilated, the 15T can handle frequent or extended run times common in small industrial and maintenance environments.
Answer: Regular oil changes, clean air filters, and routine inspections of valves, belts, and fasteners are recommended. Its simple two-cylinder design makes servicing quick and straightforward.
Answer: The 15T is commonly used in light manufacturing, small repair shops, laboratory air systems, and custom-built compressor assemblies where compact size and consistent pressure are required.
