Core basis: GB 50029 code for design of compressed air stations<\/h2>\n<p>according to current national standards<strong>GB 50029 -2014 design specification for compressed air station<\/strong>article 4.2.3 and article 5.1.5, the minimum clear distance between the air compressor unit and the wall, other equipment or operation channel shall be maintained:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>unit front (Operation side)<\/strong>: \u22651.5 m to ensure daily inspection, filter replacement and emergency shutdown operation space;<\/li>\n<li><strong>back and both sides (non-operating side)<\/strong>: \u22650.8 m to meet the needs of heat dissipation and ventilation and basic maintenance;<\/li>\n<li><strong>when multiple units are arranged side by side<\/strong>: The center distance of adjacent units should be &ge; 2.0 m to avoid airflow interference and heat built-up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>II. Associated security requirements<\/h2>\n<p>in addition to the installation spacing, synchronization is also required to meet:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>pressure vessel safety<\/strong>: air storage tank of air compressor is a fixed pressure vessel, which must comply with TSG 21-2016 safety technical supervision regulations for fixed pressure vessels. It is forbidden to pile flammable materials around it, and independent pressure relief channels should be set;<\/li>\n<li><strong>fire fighting and evacuation<\/strong>: The equipment area should be included in the overall fire protection zone, and the straight line distance from the safety exit &le; 30 m, and keep barrier-free access no less than 1.2 m wide;<\/li>\n<li><strong>noise and Vibration Isolation<\/strong>: it is recommended to install anti-vibration pad on the air compressor base, and avoid setting precision instruments or office areas within 1 m around.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>III.
