An extraction fan must be connected to the BS unit, see

external outputs" [ 88].
In order to size the fan, calculate the required pressure capacity. The total pressure
drop in the evacuation channel consists of multiple parts: the pressure drop
generated by the BS unit and the pressure drop generated by the components of
the ductwork.
Select an airflow rate for the evacuation that meets the legal requirements. This
means that the airflow rate is above the legally required minimum, and generates
sufficient pressure difference inside the BS unit when compared with the pressure
of the surroundings. The minimum required airflow rate (AFR
the pressure drop generated by the BS unit should lead to a pressure inside the BS
unit (P ) that is more than 20 Pa below the pressure of the surroundings.

It is advised to take a safety margin on these minimum values when designing the
evacuation channel in order to account for tolerances on parts, dirt and dust
building up in the evacuation channel over time, etc.
Note: The internal pressure of the BS unit should not be more than 350 Pa below
the pressure of the surroundings.
Write down the pressure drop generated by all the components in the evacuation
channel for the selected airflow rate. For the BS unit, use the curve that presents
the pressure at the outlet (P

For the pressure drop caused by other components of the evacuation channel
(ducts, bends, etc.), use the curves of the manufacturer.
Use the airflow rate and the sum of the pressure drops to select a suitable fan.
