Requirements and specifications for setting of air compressor room

The setting requirements and specifications of the air compressor room are the basis for ensuring the safe and stable operation of the air compressor. The following are related contents sorted out according to multiple authoritative sources:

requirements for location of 1. air compressor room

1. environmental requirements:
   • should be selected away from the noise and vibration requirements of the office area and production workshop.
   • Should be far away from the dust pollution of the operation site and flammable and explosive warehouse, storage room.
   • It should be set in a building with a suitable distance from the power distribution room and the middle distance of the gas consumption point.
   • It should be set in a building with a higher position in the plant area to facilitate ventilation and heat dissipation.
2. Climate and temperature conditions:
   • choose a place with low air humidity, less dust, fresh air and good ventilation.
   • The ambient temperature should be controlled within a certain range, usually between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius. For air-cooled compressors, special attention should be paid to heat dissipation in summer.

Architectural requirements for 2. air compressor rooms

1. structure and load:
   • the construction of air compressor room should have a certain load to meet the placement of equipment.
   • The hoisting port shall be reserved for the machine room of the multi-storey plant above the second floor.
2. Ventilation and heat dissipation:
   • good ventilation should be provided to discharge the heat generated by the air compressor during operation.
   • For air-cooled compressors, the ventilation of the machine room should be better, and exhaust fans or air ducts can be installed if necessary.
3. Dust prevention and noise reduction:
   • the air inlet along the wall shall be provided with dust-proof metal net to prevent dust from entering the machine room.
   • Sound insulation measures should be set, the equipment of the air compression system should be of low noise type, and effective noise reduction measures should be taken for the equipment with large noise.

Electrical requirements for 3. air compressor rooms

1. power load:
   • the power shall be set to meet the power load requirements of the air compressor system.
   • For process equipment with special requirements for gas supply stability, an uninterruptible power supply can be considered.
2. Power Configuration:
   • the main power supply of the compressor is usually AC(380V/50Hz) three-phase, and it is necessary to confirm that the power supply is stable and meets the equipment requirements.
   • The voltage drop shall not exceed 5% of the rated voltage, and the voltage difference of each phase shall be within 3%.
   • Power supplies with isolating switches shall be used to prevent phase loss due to short circuits.

Layout requirements in 4. air compressor room

1. equipment layout:
   • the layout of the air compressor and the rear accessory equipment shall be able to meet the daily maintenance needs.
   • The pipeline shall be arranged according to the treatment route from the gas source to the gas consumption point to avoid the pipeline winding and maintenance interference between equipment.
2. Safety and Fire Protection:
   • necessary fire fighting equipment and facilities, such as carbon dioxide fire extinguishers, shall be provided, and manual switches shall be set outside the danger zone.
   • Fire exits shall be compliant to ensure rapid evacuation in case of emergency.

5. Other Considerations

1. ground and wall treatment:
   • the ground is the best smooth cement floor, the inner surface of the wall should be white, in order to keep the room clean and bright.
   • The compressor base shall be placed on the concrete floor, and the level of the plane shall meet the requirements.
2. Maintenance:
   • the air compressor should be regularly maintained, including cleaning, lubrication, inspection and other work.
   • Operators should be familiar with the equipment structure, performance and operating procedures, certified.
3. Expansion Reservation:
   • room in the location of the general plan should be left room for expansion to meet the needs of future development.

To sum up, the setting requirements and specifications of the air compressor room involve many aspects, including site selection, construction, electrical, layout and other matters needing attention. Only in strict accordance with these requirements and specifications for design and construction, in order to ensure the safe and stable operation of the air compressor and extend its service life.
