5. Product Overview

39903281 is the air filter element used in Ingersoll Rand SSR S Series, M Series, and RM Series screw compressors.

This part number has been officially upgraded and replaced by 47701891001. Both share identical mounting dimensions, filtration performance, and service life, and are directly interchangeable without any installation modifications.

The element uses imported wood pulp filter paper / glass fiber composite media (Ahlstrom-class), with a filtration rating of 5 ~ 10 μm and ≥ 98% efficiency for particles above 5 μm. It combines high dust holding capacity with low flow resistance — effectively trapping dust to protect the compressor rotor while avoiding excessive pressure drop that would increase energy consumption.

Outer diameter ≈ 380 mm, inner diameter ≈ 199 mm, height ≈ 178 mm, net weight ≈ 1.75 kg per element. One element per compressor; recommended replacement at 2,000 hours or 1 year, whichever comes first.

6. Installation & Maintenance

Replacement Interval

OEM recommendation: 2,000 hours or 1 year, whichever comes first.
In dusty environments (dusty workshops, construction sites), shorten inspection intervals to monthly.

Signs Replacement Is Needed

• Inlet restriction indicator enters the yellow zone and remains there after shutdown;
• Dust traces visible on the clean side of the filter housing;
• Discharge volume continuously drops with no other fault found.

Do Not Clean and Reuse

Dry pleated elements must not be washed or blown with air — cleaning damages the pleat structure and reduces filtration efficiency. Replace with a new element.

Installation Steps

1. Shut down and lock out/tag out; allow the enclosure to cool;
2. Open the inlet-side enclosure panel and release the filter housing cover;
3. Grip the end cap and remove the old element;
4. Inspect the housing interior — if dust traces are present on the clean side, the seal has failed and must be corrected before installing a new element;
5. Wipe the sealing surface, insert the new element (inner diameter ≈199 mm aligned with the air inlet), and avoid over-tightening;
6. Reinstall the housing cover and confirm the restriction indicator returns to the clean position;
7. Restart the unit and verify inlet restriction has returned to normal.

Old and new numbers are directly interchangeable: 47701891001 and 39903281 share identical mounting dimensions. No housing replacement or structural modification is needed — simply install following the steps above.

7. FAQ

Q1. What is the new part number for 39903281?
47701891001. It is the official Ingersoll Rand upgrade number for the former 39903281.

Q2. Are 39903281 and 47701891001 interchangeable?
Yes. They share identical mounting dimensions, filtration performance, and service life, and are directly interchangeable.

Q3. What are the dimensions of 39903281?
Outer diameter ≈ 380 mm, inner diameter ≈ 199 mm, height ≈ 178 mm (including upper and lower polyurethane end caps). Outer diameter manufacturing tolerance ±2 mm.

Q4. What is the filtration rating of 39903281?
5 ~ 10 μm, with ≥ 98% efficiency for particles above 5 μm.

Q5. What filter media does 39903281 use?
Imported wood pulp filter paper / glass fiber composite media. The OEM uses Ahlstrom-class media for high dust holding capacity and low flow resistance.

Q6. Which compressors does 39903281 fit?
It fits 6 models: SSR S Series S90, S110, S150; M Series M185; and RM Series RM185i, RM185n.

Q7. What is the difference between RM185i and RM185n?
i is the fixed-speed version, n is the variable-speed version; both use the same air filter element.

Q8. How often should this air filter be replaced?
OEM recommendation: 2,000 hours or 1 year, whichever comes first. Shorten the interval in dusty environments.

Q9. How many air filters are needed per compressor?
1 pc.

Q10. How do I know when the air filter needs replacement?
The inlet restriction indicator turns yellow and remains in the yellow zone after shutdown.

Q11. Can 39903281 be cleaned and reused?
No. Dry pleated elements must not be washed or blown with air; cleaning damages the pleat structure and reduces filtration efficiency.

Q12. How can I confirm it fits my machine?
Provide the complete compressor serial number and we can perform a precise match verification.
