Ingersoll Rand has added two compressors, models RS11-22kW and RS15-22kW, to its new Next Generation R-Series. Designed for small shops, the versatile compressors can be used to power blowers and pneumatic tools, hold material to vacuum tables, and more, according to the company.

Product manager Andy Nemcek says both compressors give shop owners best-in-class performance and the reliability to meet all of their current and potential needs.

“These are the continuation of the multi-year project our company has undertaken to refresh their entire portfolio from 5- to 500-hp machines with new high efficiency air compressors,” says Nemcek.

The RS15-22kW has a new design that produces 20 percent more airflow compared to the company’s previous compressors of this capacity, resulting in more energy savings. The RS11-22kW houses a redesigned cooling system and increases energy efficiency up to 12 percent, according to the company.

“This new launch provides a full range of options and features within the 11-22kw range to match the unique needs of a customer’s application. This flexibility ensures owners get the best performance at the best value,” the company said.
