3.3 Requirements on installation facility
Ensure that the floor of the facility can withstand the weight of the compressor. Install the
compressor on a level surface that is able to bear its weight.
Adjust the horizontal axis of the compressor using a levelling instrument.
If the compressor is not anchored to the base on which it is installed, the tilt angle with re-
spect to the horizontal surface must not exceed 3°.
If the compressor is anchored to the base on which it is installed, the tilt angle with respect
to the horizontal surface must not exceed 7°.
Install the compressor in a facility where precipitation cannot reach.
Choose a facility for installing the compressor with a minimum level of dust.
Install the compressor at least 1.5 m from walls.
If multiple compressors are installed, there should be a 1.5 m minimum distance between
each compressor.
There should be a 4 m safety distance from the area of the operated equipment connected
to the compressor.
The facility in which the compressor is installed must be fitted with a combined extract-and-
input ventilation system.
The facility where the compressor is installed should be provid-
ed with air inflow equivalent to twice the compressor’s capacity.
The volume of extraction ventilation must not exceed 40% of the air inflow capacity of the
input ventilation in a facility where the compressor is installed and fitted with an extract-
and-input ventilation system.
The compressor should not be installed in a facility where the temperature may drop below
+5°С.
3.4 Connection to the compressed airline
Provide the throughput capacity of the compressed-air line in accordance with the perfor-
mance of the compressor.
In order to avoid damage associated with seal failure of the compressed-air line, the com-
