The Ingersoll Rand 47555207001 23487457 Air Filter is an intake filtration component for industrial air compressor systems. It captures airborne dust and particulate matter before incoming air reaches the compressor’s internal compression components.
In rotary screw compressor installations, intake filtration is particularly relevant in manufacturing plants, metalworking facilities and other environments where airborne dust accumulates during production. Contaminants entering with the intake air can contribute to internal deposits and wear, while a heavily loaded filter can restrict airflow.
The references 47555207001 and 23487457 identify the filter specified for this product listing. When planning a replacement, maintenance personnel should check the installed compressor model, filter housing and sealing arrangement to ensure the correct element is selected.
This filter serves the intake side of the compressor. It should not be confused with an oil filter, which treats compressor lubricant, or an air/oil separator, which separates oil from compressed air in applicable oil-flooded systems.

As the compressor draws in atmospheric air, the air passes through the filter media. The media retains airborne particles while filtered air continues through the intake system toward the compressor airend.
During operation, dust and other contaminants gradually accumulate in the filter. In a workshop with elevated dust levels, this buildup may occur more quickly than in a cleaner installation. Increasing restriction can reduce the available intake airflow, while damaged media or incorrect seating can allow contaminants to pass around the filter.
For maintenance engineers, the practical priorities are to inspect the element, clean the housing, check the sealing surfaces and review any available filter-restriction indication. Replacement should follow the applicable equipment maintenance requirements and the observed condition of the element.
The filter performs intake air filtration; it does not regulate discharge pressure or remove lubricant from compressed air.
The air filter forms the first filtration stage in the compressor’s incoming-air path. It helps limit the amount of airborne particulate matter reaching the compression section.

| Air Intake Housing | Holds and seals the filter element | Directs incoming air through the filter |
| Intake Valve | Controls air admission where fitted | Regulates air entering the compression section |
| Compressor Airend | Compresses incoming air | Receives air from the intake system |
| Electric Drive Motor | Supplies mechanical power | Drives the compressor airend |
| Oil Filter | Filters compressor lubricant | Serves the separate lubrication circuit |
| Air/Oil Separator | Separates oil from compressed air in applicable systems | Performs a downstream separation function |
| Aftercooler | Reduces compressed-air temperature | Conditions air after compression |
| Compressor Controller | Manages operating sequences and alarms | Monitors operating conditions where supported |
The precise arrangement varies by compressor model and system configuration.
| Application | Typical Equipment | Role of the Air Filter |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturing Plants | Centralized compressor stations | Helps limit particulate intake during production |
| Automotive Production | Industrial compressed-air systems | Supports filtration for compressors serving pneumatic equipment |
| Metalworking Facilities | Workshop and process-air compressors | Helps reduce airborne dust entering the compression system |
| Packaging Machinery | Compressed-air supply equipment | Supports intake filtration for production machinery |
| Food and Beverage Plants | Industrial compressor installations | Protects the compressor intake; downstream treatment determines delivered air quality |
| Chemical Processing | Plant utility-air compressors | Provides intake filtration under site operating conditions |
| General Industrial Utilities | Factory compressed-air networks | Forms part of routine compressor maintenance |
| Industrial Workshops | Compressors operating in dusty surroundings | Helps reduce particulate ingress into the compressor |
If intake restriction remains abnormal after replacement, inspect the housing and intake ducting as well as any installed monitoring device.

| Ingersoll Rand 23487457 | Air Filter | Alternate reference supplied for the requested product | Use as a part-identification reference |
| Ingersoll Rand 47555207001 | Air Filter | Requested product reference | Match against the installed compressor configuration |
| Ingersoll Rand Air Intake Filter | Air Intake Filter | Same general component category | Select according to the specific compressor and housing |
| Ingersoll Rand Oil Filter | Oil Filter | Related compressor maintenance component | Match separately to the lubrication system |
| Ingersoll Rand Air/Oil Separator | Air/Oil Separator | Related component in applicable oil-flooded systems | Select according to the installed compressor configuration |
These components perform different functions and should not be treated as interchangeable.
It filters incoming air before it reaches the compressor’s internal components, helping reduce the amount of airborne dust and particulate matter entering the machine.
Check the part references, compressor model, housing fit and sealing arrangement. The element must seat correctly to prevent unfiltered air from bypassing the filter media.
Accumulated contamination can increase airflow resistance. If restriction becomes excessive, intake performance may be affected, so the filter should be inspected according to the equipment’s maintenance requirements.
No. An intake air filter treats atmospheric air before compression. An oil filter serves the lubrication circuit, while an air/oil separator removes oil from compressed air in applicable systems.
