CAP-215

Instruction Manual Oil-Less Compressors

8.1.1. Natural ventilation

As warm air rises, adequate wall openings should be provided for cooling air intake (next to the floor) and for

cooling air outlet (next to/ in the ceiling).

The compressor should be positioned right next to the air inlet opening.

Fig. 16: Installation with natural ventilation

A Minimum distance from wall, intake side 1.6405 ft.

B Minimum distance from wall, exhaust air side 2.46075 ft

The opening for intake air A2 should be approx. 20% larger than the opening for exhaust air A3 taking into

account louvers, grills, etc.

The table in Fig. 16 is based on the following values:

Room temperature 87°F

Temperature variation with natural ventilation 27°F

Thickness of walls 9.8425 in.

If it is not possible to follow the recommended guide lines for natural ventilation (e.g. installation of several

compressors within a very small operating room), the operating room must be ventilated artificially.
