Maximum loading speed and reference conditions 1,2).
1. Reference conditions as specified are measured at the air inlet grating outside the
canopy:
-Air intake pressure (absolute) 1 bar (14.5 psi)
-Air intake temperature 20°C (68°F)
-Relative air humidity 0%
2. Free air delivery is measured according to ISO 1217 ed. 3 1996 annex D which
corresponds to American ANSI PTC9.
