PEAK CALCULATED DEMAND IN SCFM:
NOTES:
1. The SCFM above is based on a peak OUTLET demand of 50 psi. Air compressors operate at 100 psi. When sizing a compressor, you MUST
figure the compressor capacity for operation at 100 psi.
0.00
2. Air outlets in labs used for analysis, research or teaching should be supplied by a seperated compressed air system, not medical air system.
3. * Maybe used alone if you wish to only count outlets needed. You may change that field as you see fit.
