Product Overview
The Ingersoll Rand 47572174001 23487457 Air Filter is an intake air filtration component for compatible Ingersoll Rand rotary screw air compressors. Its purpose is to remove airborne dust and particulate contamination before the incoming air reaches the compressor air end.
The quality of the intake air directly affects compressor maintenance requirements. Dust entering the compression chamber can contaminate the internal oil circuit, increase wear on working surfaces, and contribute to deposits within the compressor. An effective intake filter helps reduce these risks by retaining particles in the filter medium while allowing air to pass into the machine.
The 23487457 filter is associated with Ingersoll Rand R132 and R160 compressor applications, including specified variants within these equipment families. It is also identified by cross-reference catalogs for compatible replacement filter elements. The part number is therefore useful when identifying an intake filter for an existing compressor installation.
During operation, air passes through the filter medium before entering the intake system. As particles accumulate, airflow resistance can increase. A heavily loaded filter may restrict the air supply and affect compressor performance, particularly when the machine operates under sustained demand or in a dusty environment.
For maintenance engineers, filter condition is an important part of routine compressor inspection. Replacement intervals depend on the applicable service schedule, operating hours, and the amount of airborne contamination. A filter operating in a clean utility room may load at a different rate from one installed in a facility with dust-generating processes.
The 23487457 is an air intake filter, not a coolant filter or an air/oil separator. It handles incoming atmospheric air rather than circulating compressor lubricant or separating oil from compressed air. Keeping these functions distinct is important when ordering replacement parts and diagnosing compressor performance problems.

Working Principle
The 23487457 Air Filter cleans incoming air by passing it through a porous filter medium. Air can travel through the medium, while particles are retained within or on the filtration material.
Atmospheric Air → Intake Filter → Compressor Intake → Rotary Screw Air End
When the compressor draws in air, the intake flow passes through the filter cartridge. The filtration medium captures airborne dust and other particulate matter before the air enters the compression chamber. The cleaned intake air then proceeds through the compressor’s intake path.
As the filter accumulates contaminants, the available flow passages become progressively restricted. This can increase the pressure difference across the filter and reduce the amount of air entering the compressor under a given operating condition. The extent of the effect depends on the quantity and type of contamination, the filter’s condition, and the compressor’s operating demand.
A filter that is damaged, incorrectly seated, or poorly sealed can allow unfiltered air to bypass the filtration medium. Even when the element appears clean externally, a compromised seal or damaged filter surface may reduce its effectiveness. Correct installation is therefore as important as replacing the element at the appropriate interval.
If intake restriction is suspected, technicians should examine the filter element, intake housing, seals, and any available filter restriction indication. Reduced compressor output can also result from control settings, intake valve problems, or other system faults, so filter replacement should be based on inspection and the relevant operating evidence.
Role in an Ingersoll Rand Compressor System
The 23487457 Air Filter is positioned at the intake stage of the compressor. It removes airborne contamination before the air reaches the compression mechanism, while downstream components handle compression, oil separation, cooling, and lubricant circulation.

Installation and Maintenance
- Verify the part number: Identify the required intake filter as Ingersoll Rand 23487457 before beginning maintenance.
- Prepare the compressor: Stop the machine and isolate the electrical supply according to the site’s lockout and tagout procedure.
- Allow the intake system to settle: Ensure that the compressor has stopped and the intake assembly can be opened safely.
- Inspect the filter housing: Check for accumulated dust, damaged retaining hardware, and contamination around the filter seating area.
- Remove the used element: Extract the filter carefully to prevent accumulated dirt from entering the clean-air side of the housing.
- Inspect the sealing surfaces: Check the housing and filter seating interfaces for damage, contamination, or deteriorated seals.
- Clean the intake housing: Remove loose debris using a method that prevents contamination from reaching the downstream intake passage.
- Install the replacement filter: Fit the new cartridge in the correct orientation and ensure that it seats evenly in the housing.
- Check the filter seal: Confirm that the element is properly seated and that no visible gap permits unfiltered air to bypass the medium.
- Secure the housing: Reinstall the cover and retaining components according to the equipment’s maintenance procedure.
- Check operation after restart: Observe the intake system and any available restriction indication for signs of abnormal airflow or installation problems.
- Record the replacement: Document the part number, operating hours, filter condition, and any intake contamination observed during maintenance.

Technical FAQs
Which compressor applications use the 23487457 Air Filter?
The part is listed for specified Ingersoll Rand R132 and R160 compressor applications, including certain equipment variants. It is an intake air filter rather than a coolant filter or separator element.
How can a restricted intake filter affect compressor operation?
As dust accumulates in the filter medium, airflow resistance can increase. Depending on the degree of restriction and compressor control behavior, this may reduce intake airflow and affect operating performance.
Why is the filter seal important during replacement?
A properly seated filter helps ensure that incoming air passes through the filtration medium. If the seal is damaged or the element is installed incorrectly, unfiltered air may bypass the filter and carry contaminants into the compressor.
What should be inspected if intake restriction continues after replacing the filter?
Check the intake housing, filter seating, seals, and any restriction indicator. If the filter and housing are in good condition, investigate other possible causes such as intake valve operation or a separate airflow restriction.
