I have a Ingersoll Rand 5 HP 220 V single phase air compressor and I'm having problems with the pressure switch.
The original one was fried after about a year of use. I seem to replace the switch about every year or so now, I think they should last a little longer than that.
I think that the contacts in it are not big enough for the application. I bought it brand new and always buy Ingersoll Rand replacement parts but I keep having the same issue. The contacts look very thin and weld shut and then the pressure relief kicks open.
Does anyone know of a solution to this problem.
