2.06 COMPRESSED AIR SUPPLY - PNEUMATIC

[Note to Consultant: Describe the pneumatic air source for the project. Where there

is an existing source, determine whether it has adequate capacity to handle the

additional load before using it for the project. Where the additional required

capacity is not available, specify some means of providing the required capacity.]

A. Air Compressor:

1. Furnish and install a duplex temperature control type air compressor where indicated

on plans.

2. Both compressors shall be mounted on single ASME receiver tank. Tank sized per

manufacturer's recommendations, 30 gal. minimum.

3. Each compressor to be sized for no more than 33% run time at 500 rpm maximum

(one-stage), or 700 rpm maximum (two-stage). Oil carryover shall not exceed 4 ppm.

Each compressor shall have a maximum of six starts per hour. Provide 1.15 service

factor motor, phase and voltage per electrical plans. Motors shall meet the
requirements set forth in Section 15050.

4. Provide factory starter/automatic alternator package with automatic start of standby

compressor. Starters shall meet the requirements set forth in Section 15050.

5. Provide OSHA belt guards, operating pressure switches, tank pressure gauge, intake

filters, ASME safety relief valves, check valves, shutoff valve and vibration isolation

pads for each air compressor.

6. Provide an automatic receiver tank drain valve, with a manual bypass valve.

Pipe the drain line to a floor drain.

B. Refrigerated Air Dryers:

1. Provide continuously-operating, hermetic compressor, refrigerated-type air dryer,

UL-listed, sized for maximum dewpoint of 39°F with 100°F saturated inlet air at 100
psig at maximum rated flow(-10°F at 20 psig). Pressure drop: 3 psi maximum at

rated flow. Rated working pressure: 125 psig minimum. Ambient temperature range

50 to 110°F.

2. Dryer package shall include operating/failure status indication, manual bypass service

valve, inlet and outlet pressure gauges, and automatic condensate drain trap with

manual override.
