Location of the Unit.
Items to consider when installing the Unit are as
follows:
 The Unit should be located in a dry, clean, cool,
dust free, and well ventilated area. If possible, the
Compressor should be located in a separate
room or area, away from the general operations
of the shop.
 Allow a minimum of 18" around and 24" above
the Unit, this being for both the proper ventilation
of the Unit and ease of servicing.
Building
Wall, etc
 Ensure that the floor under the Unit is smooth,
level and capable of bearing the weight of the
Compressor. The Compressor must sit squarely
on the floor.
 This unit must be anchored to the floor as
indicated at above-right. DV Systems has
available Installation Kits which include (4)
Vibration Isolator Pads, (1) Stainless Steel Flex
Hose, and Steel and Rubber Washers.

 If installing the Unit on a mezzanine, ensure
that the structure can safely support the weight
of the Unit. The Vibration Pads will help to
lessen the sound level of the Unit caused by
harmonics created by the structure.
 All Compressor Units must be anchored and
installed as shown below. Failure to do this will
affect the Tank Warranty.

Never clamp or bolt Air Receiver Feet to the
floor or support structure. Doing so can
greatly increase stress on the Tank, causing
it to weaken and/or fracture.
To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury,
use indoors only.
The Compressor must not be operated in a
confined area where the heat from the Unit
cannot readily escape.
 If installed in a compressor room, ensure that the
room is adequately ventilated. (One Horsepower
produces approximately 2500 BTU/HR.)
Eg: 15 HP Unit x 2500 BTU/HP = 37,500 BTU/hour
 The ambient temperature should be between
50°F and 104°F (10°C to 40°C).
