The Ingersoll Rand TS5 is a 5 HP, two-stage, cast iron reciprocating air compressor from Ingersoll Rand's Type-30 TS Series. A two-stage design compresses the air in two steps, which is how the TS5 reaches a 175 psi maximum operating pressure. It is sold in two main forms: as the TS5 Bare, a compressor pump that bolts to your own tank and motor, and as a complete package such as the TS5N5, which adds an 80 gallon vertical tank, motor, and accessories.
Shops and industrial facilities rely on the TS5 for stationary shop air that runs air tools and general pneumatic equipment. Distributor listings for the complete TS5N5 unit cite a durable cast iron, two-stage enblock design and a 100% continuous-duty rating. Internally, the pump is splash lubricated and uses stainless steel finger valves, which the distributor describes as providing increased volumetric efficiency and corrosion resistance. Ingersoll Rand's owner's manual states plainly that these compressors are not designed, intended, or approved for breathing air.
Common configuration for the TS5 Bare pump: 5 HP, two-stage, 175 psi maximum pressure, 16.5 CFM free air at 175 psi, 1,500 RPM pump speed, counter-clockwise rotation, a 14-1/2" flywheel included with a single A-section groove, 40.64 oz (about 1.2 L) oil capacity, and a 1/2" NPT outlet. The pump measures roughly 15" W x 14" D x 24" H and ships at about 134 lb. The complete TS5N5 package is listed with an 80 gallon vertical tank, 5 HP motor, 175 psi, 17 CFM at 175 psi, a 1/2" NPT outlet, roughly 31" L x 73" H, and about 450 lb. It is offered in 230V single-phase or 200, 230, 460, or 575V three-phase, and the voltage and phase must be specified at the time of order.
