Why does my Ingersoll-Rand SSR UP6 15 trip due to overheating?
- L
  Lindsey DavisAug 2, 2025
  Your Ingersoll-Rand Air Compressor may be tripping due to overheating for several reasons. It could be operating above its rated pressure, so ensure the pressure is set correctly. Other potential causes include a blocked package pre-filter (clean or replace it), a blocked cooler (clean it), missing or incorrectly fitted enclosure panels (ensure they are correctly fitted), low coolant level (top it up and check for leaks), high ambient temperature (relocate the compressor), or restricted cooling air flow (ensure correct airflow).

What to do if the pressure relief valve opens on my Ingersoll-Rand SSR UP6 15?
- A
  Albert BradyAug 7, 2025
  If the pressure relief valve on your Ingersoll-Rand Air Compressor is opening, it could be due to a defective switch or an incorrect pressure switch setting (replace or set the pressure correctly). Other potential causes include a malfunctioning minimum pressure valve (fit a minimum pressure valve service kit), a defective load solenoid valve (fit a load solenoid service kit), a defective blowdown valve (fit a blowdown solenoid service kit), or an inlet valve malfunction (fit an inlet valve service kit).

- B
  Brittney RogersAug 17, 2025
  Black residue on the belt guard or cooler box of your Ingersoll-Rand Air Compressor typically indicates a drive belt slipping. You should replace the belt and tensioner. Other possible causes include misaligned pulleys (re-align them), worn pulleys (replace pulleys and belt), or a failed gas strut (replace the belt and tensioner).

Why is my Ingersoll-Rand SSR UP6 15 having excessive coolant consumption?
- D
  Donna ClarkAug 21, 2025
  Excessive coolant consumption in your Ingersoll-Rand Air Compressor could be due to several reasons. There might be a separator cartridge leak, in which case you should fit a new separator cartridge. Another cause could be a blocked separator cartridge drain; remove the fittings and clean it. Also, check if the compressor is operating below the rated pressure and set the pressure correctly. Finally, inspect the coolant system for leaks and fix them.
