2. Consider the rationality of the power supply, water supply when planning the room

wearing, corrosion and explosion, there must be a certain distance between the air
compressor room and the place which sends out explosive, corrosive, poisonous gas, dust and
other harmful substances. What’s more, the room should be located in the place of the
minimum frequency wind to make sure it is affected the least by harmful substances. The
distance between compressor and harmful substance emission source is suggested. Please see
