Important: Costs, codes, permits, inspection duties, accessibility rules, environmental requirements and insurance conditions vary by country, province or state, municipality, building use, equipment type, installation date and project scope. Qualified local professionals and the authority having jurisdiction must determine what applies. Compressed air stores substantial energy. Pressure vessels, piping, hoses, electrical equipment, hot surfaces, noise, condensate, moving machinery and inappropriate cleaning practices can cause serious injury or property damage. The site does not select compressor capacity, pressure, receiver volume, relief devices, piping materials, breathing-air treatment, lockout procedures or inspection requirements. Use qualified professionals, equipment manuals and the rules that apply at the facility.
