Can I read Air Compressor Sizing Methods on EtoBox?

Air Compressor Sizing Methods by John Malones is a document available to read on EtoBox.

What is Air Compressor Sizing Methods about?

This document discusses two methods for sizing air compressors: the equivalent air units method and calculating total air consumption. The equivalent air units method rates devices by the amount of air they consume compared to a baseline relay controller of 0.008 SCFM. For example, an R516 relay uses 0.016 SCFM, which is equivalent to two units. Selecting the compressor run time percentage also impacts sizing. A 50% run time will result in a smaller, less expensive compressor but higher long-term costs
