Installation proposal
1
Install the compressor unit on a solid, level floor suitable for taking the weight. Recommended
minimum distance between top of the unit and ceiling is 900 mm (35 in). Distance between
unit and walls stated are minimum.
* Recommended distance is 500 mm for easy access.
Air receiver may not be bolted to the ground.
2
Position of the compressed air outlet valve.
3
The pressure drop over the air delivery pipe can be calculated as follows:
Δp = (L x 450 x Q
c
1.85
) / (d
5
x P), with
d = Inner diameter of the pipe in mm
Δp = Pressure drop in bar (recommended maximum: 0.1 bar (1.5 psi))
L = Length of the pipe in m
P = Absolute pressure at the compressor outlet in bar
Q
c
= Free air delivery of the compressor in l/s
