BS ISO 18740:2016 applies to any fixed (constant) speed, liquid cooled, packaged centrifugal air
compressor which incorporates a centrifugal compression element of any type driven by an electric motor.This International Standard defines and describes acceptance tests for electrically driven packaged air
compressors of standard types which are constructed to specifications determined by the manufacturer
and which are sold against performance data published in the manufacturer's sales documentation.NOTE Items supplied shipped loose for installation at site are not considered to be a part of the compressor
package.Such compressors are designed to draw in atmospheric air from their immediate surroundings and the
performance data offered by the manufacturer usually relates to a normal ambient air inlet pressure.Cross References:ISO 1217ISO 3857-1ISO 3857-2ISO 5167-1ISO 9300ISO 5389ASME PTC 10All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
