Ingersoll Rand 22421853 OEM Side Panel Pre Filter for UP6 5-15C

Ingersoll Rand 22421853 OEM Side Panel Pre Filter for UP6 5-15C

The 22421853 OEM pre-filter from Ingersoll Rand is used on a wide variety of rotary screw air compressors. The most common models are the UP6-5 thru UP6-15C compressors. The 22421853 panel filter was used for both the Total Air System models with integrated dryer and the non-dryer version.

This is the same item as 38342028, but 22421853 only includes 1 filter while 38342028 is a pack of 4.

A rotary screw compressor pre-filter is used to filter the air prior to entering the compressor cabinet. This not only will help increase the cleanliness of the air compressor but it will lengthen the life of the air filter as well. Since the incoming air is now dual filtered, there is less of a chance that dust particles will be sent inside of the compression chamber, increasing the overall life of the compressor.
