INSTALLATION
5.
Air distribution
A 1"
BSP
ball valve is supplied with the compressor for connection to the air distribution network. To maximize
air delivery to point(s) of use, air distribution piping diameter should be no smaller than the air outlet diameter.
Do not use air line filters or regulators whose ports are smaller than the air piping diameter. In smaller systems
it is recommended that an air tank be installed. It should have a minimum storage capacity that is equal to or
th
greater than 1/5 of the capacity (in gallons per minute) of the compressor.
Installing a tank (condensed separator) in this manner will significantly reduce the interval of the demand
fluctuations within the control system of the compressor.
If SRP 3,000 serie compressors are properly sized for a facility, the installation of a tank isn't necessary.
However, a good compressed air network design always includes the installation of a tank in order to cushion
control fluctuations caused by erratic air consumption, gather condensed water and to maintain an adequate
air supply during consumption peaks.
We recommend that the installation, at the compressor's outlet, include an auxiliary air outlet with a hose and
nozzle to clean the cooler and other tasks which may require the use of local compressed air.
For more information and guidance in the design of your air distribution system, please consult your
Authorized - Technical/Distributor.
IMPORTANT
To maintain compressed air quality, do not locate condensed separator, filters or refrigerated dryers in vicinity
of cooling air exhaust stream (See Figure 7 ).
