Air dryer. Why is new compressor running hot?

There are several reasons for a compressor to run too hot, including high compression ratio, high return gas temperatures, and lack of external cooling. High compression ratios are the result of either lower than normal suction pressures or higher than normal discharge pressures.

My ingersoll 185 revs up and down when running. What do you think the problem is?

Your location may not have a good constant supply of electricity and you are experiencing variable voltage surges. I would suggest that you get a voltage meter and check the voltage to the motor while it is running under load. It needs to remain constant.

After 100psi the compressor stops. It apprears to

possibly the check valve but most compressors shut off at 100 psi it could be that the motor is not of sufficient capacity to go to a higher pressure and that is why it appears to be struggling

I don't know if your unit is exposed to the direct sun light if it is I suggest you create some shade , or if this this unit is enclosed is not getting enough air flow to keep cool. ( this air flow helps to stabilized the sensor that stop and start the compressor )

I have an ingresoll rand

Does it have separate compressors on tank?. You probably need to adjust cut in and cut out pressure switch. I have seen several air delivery systems that utilize 2 separate compressors, this allowed a backup if the one online failed. The units had unloader valves and the compressor never stops running. A call for air pressure would close unloader valves and unit would pump up and the the valves would unload.
