2.2 Electric cable size
Attention
- Local regulations remain applicable if they are stricter than
the values proposed below.
- The voltage drop shall not exceed 5% of the nominal
voltage. It may be necessary to use cables with a larger
size than those stated to comply with this requirement.
- Use the original cable entrance ((2-Fig. 2.1).
- The voltage on the compressor terminals must not deviate
more than 10% of the nominal voltage.

L = (dP x d
5
x P) / (450 x Qc
1.85
)
L = pipe length in m
dP = maximum allowable pressure drop
(recommended 0.1 bar)
d = inner diameter of pipe in mm
P = compressor outlet pressure in bar absolute
Qc = free air delivery of compressor in l/s
Ref. Description/recommendation
1 Install the compressor on a level floor suitable for taking
the weight of the compressor.
2 Compressed air outlet valve.
3 The maximum total pipe length (including
interconnecting piping between compressor and
receiver) can be calculated as follows:
