Product Overview
The 88171913 air filter element is a genuine Ingersoll Rand intake filter element engineered for the UP5-11C-8 series small screw air compressor. Its high-efficiency synthetic fiber media captures airborne dust, dirt, and particulate before it reaches the screw airend, protecting rotors, bearings, and shaft seals from abrasive wear and extending compressor service life.
The 88171913 installs inside the 89243778 filter housing assembly and is one of the most critical consumables in routine UP5-11C-8 maintenance. Manufactured to Ingersoll Rand global technical standards, it delivers low initial restriction, straightforward installation, and reliable sealing.

- GB/T 14295: Air filters
- GB/T 6165: Test methods for air filter performance (efficiency and resistance)
Standard Maintenance & Installation Procedure
Replacement Interval
- Standard conditions: every 2,000–4,000 hours or 6–12 months, whichever comes first
- High-dust conditions (construction sites, woodworking shops, mining): every 1,000–2,000 hours
- Replace immediately if visual inspection shows blackened media, heavy dust accumulation, or pressure drop reaches 600 Pa
Installation Steps
- Shut down and disconnect power: Turn off the compressor and confirm the unit has fully stopped.
- Open the filter housing cover: Release the latches or nuts on housing assembly 89243778 and remove the cover.
- Remove the old element: Pull out the old 88171913 element and check that the center gasket is not left behind in the housing groove.
- Clean the housing: Wipe the inner walls and sealing surfaces with a clean cloth. Never blow out and reuse an old element with compressed air.
- Inspect the new element: Verify part number 88171913; check media for damage, pleats for deformation, end caps for cracks, and gasket for aging.
- Install the new element: Slide the new element onto the center stud, ensuring the gasket seats evenly top and bottom without skewing or twisting.
- Refit the cover: Reinstall the cover and secure latches or nuts to ensure a gap-free seal.
- Start-up check: Start the compressor and listen for air leaks at the filter housing; confirm normal operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is 88171913 a genuine original part?
A: 88171913 is a genuine Ingersoll Rand original accessory, manufactured to Ingersoll Rand global technical standards and compatible with housing assembly 89243778.
Q2: Which compressors does 88171913 fit?
A: 88171913 is designed specifically for the Ingersoll Rand UP5-11C-8 small screw air compressor. If you are unsure about your model, provide the machine serial number and we will match it precisely.
Q3: What is the relationship between 88171913 and 89243778?
A: 88171913 is the air filter element (consumable); 89243778 is the filter housing assembly (permanent). The element fits inside the housing; the housing does not need replacement when changing the element.
Q4: How do I know when to replace the air filter element?
A: Replace when: (1) visual inspection shows blackened media or heavy dust; (2) operating pressure drop reaches the 500 Pa alarm value; or (3) the 2,000–4,000 hour or 6–12 month interval is reached.
Q5: What happens if the air filter element is too dirty?
A: A clogged element restricts intake air, reducing discharge volume and increasing specific power and energy consumption. In severe cases, dust enters the airend, causing rotor and bearing wear, seal aging, higher oil carryover, and potentially airend failure.
