Ingersoll Rand 2340L5-V 5 hp Type 30 2 Stage Reciprocating Compressor

Awesome compressor for the price. Replaced an older 30 gallon non oil unit. Shipping was fast and was impressively packaged on the pallet. No damage anywhere on the unit. Freight company brought the unit into my garage for me which was nice. I was then able to walk the unit off the pallet with the help of one other guy, not too horrible for 400 pounds. I used some anti vibration pads under the 3 feet which ended up working well. After wiring the 220, filled the unit with the Ingersoll Rand lubricant (to get the 2 year warranty on the pump) then fired it up. Everything ran perfect right off the bat, belts were properly aligned and the air filled very quickly to 150 psi. My unit came with a shut off valve attached to the output side already which was nice, it is a 1/2 thread size so you will need a 1/2" reducer to most fittings used out there. Overall, I am using this unit to sandblast parts for cerakote prep. With the old unit, I would have to wait for my compressor to catch up and would take an average of 10 minutes to blast an AR15 upper and lower. With this unit, I was able to blast the same product in 1/3 the time and 1/2 the noise level. Very impressed with fit and finish. I'm sure by following mfg instructions, this unit will last years.

Check all bolts. My pump bolts were not even started. The drain plug on the bottom was stripped and leaking. Have to buy a tap to fix their cross threaded fitting. To big to just return.

This is an incredible compressor. The performance is phenomenal compared to industry standard equipment. This equipment has exceeded expectations. This equipment is very quite for being 5 HP.Very good buy and would suggest to anybody!!!

Just hooked up my compressor for the first time and it leaks! I then reached out to ingersol rand to get it repaired and they refuse to have someone look at it without me paying for it. I’d hope for more from a huge company such as they are. Don’t waste your money on this $1500 piece of leaky trash. Go with a more reputable company. Hope this helps!

I absolutely love it. So much quieter then old non-oil and the two stage is my preference. I am handy around house so I removed the bottom plug and ran pipe with elbow and shut off valve so I can drain easily, ran a 220 circuit to my box, flipped the breaker and whala - for the price the unit is just awesome.

The shop really loves this air compressor. The high pressure (175psi) is great, but obviously means you need to regulate it in "normal" tools.Pros:- Relatively quiet- Very good SCFM- Motor is rated for continuous duty (If you plan to run any high-consumption tools, check the duty cycle!)- Comes bolted to a pallet, easy to move with a skid loader/forklift- Comes ready-to-run (except oil)- Wiring into the switch is easy with a #2 Phillips head screwdriver. Ours is hard-wired to the breaker panel, but making it corded would be just as easy.- A lovely shade of beige with black accent pieces.Cons:- Fitting containing the drain valve at the bottom wants to leak. I'd tighten the fitting until the hissing stopped, then an hour later it would be hissing again. Annoying, but eventually got it tight enough.- No anti-vibration pads for under the feet. C'mon, they're like $15 apiece for really nice ones. (You need three, I recommend the Mason 4C876 Isolator with a few washers to build height or the taller (but more rigid) Mason 4C961 Isolator)- No oil included (and it requires specific synthetic oil that is not motor oil). Again, charge me the extra $5 or whatever.- The oil filler hole is also the oil level-check hole. While you're filling it, you can't see how full it is (and it's hard to see in there anyway since it's a quarter-sized hole at a downward angle. Since it takes less than a quart of oil, it seems inevitable that you're going to spill oil all down the front of it. And, yup, I did.- pictured air compressor is *NOT* the 2340L5 (which is what you're buying). It looks like: Ingersoll-Rand 2340L5 Type 30 Two-Stage Air Compressor
