Peak Calculated Load (PCL) Requirements for the medical facility.
• Installation – Steps to building your medical air systems.
Introduction
Medical Air Systems
The NFPA 99 standards for Medical Air Compressors define an essential foundation of Medical Air Compressors
as follows: air should start clean and be kept clean. For that reason, the air inhaled by the patient at the very least
should be minimally equal to filtered local outdoor air.
All compressors included herein are deemed suitable for medical use under The NFPA standards. For further
information on NFPA compliant medical systems, please consult your Local Amico Source Corporation
representative.
THE FOUR ESSENTIALS TO BUILDING A MEDICAL AIR SYSTEM:
1. The intake air location must never be contaminated by placing the medical air systems in a poorly ventilated area.
2. The medical air must be available at all times, including in the event of a single fault failure.
3. The air must be dry enough to ensure no liquid water can develop under any normal operating conditions
(This is not necessarily assured simply by meeting the NFPA mandated dew point).
4. Any contamination whereby the system can produce within itself under any conditions (e.g., particulate) must
be removed (e.g., by filtration) before it can reach the patient.
NFPA defines various rules for the construction of the air plant and the safety devices required for each machine
type. Additionally, good engineering practice defines crucial elements such as after coolers, drains and traps, dryers,
vibration isolation, and hundreds of other small but significant elements of good air system design. Amico Source
Corporation has pre-engineered all the medical air systems in this section to warrant that they include not only
the basic requirements of the principles, but also the many foundations behind good engineering. This section of
the design guide also permits the user to make selections of complete medical air packages for reasons specified
hereafter. It is impractical to craft a design guide encompassing all the knowledge Amico Source Corporation’s
engineers have applied to the design of these systems. Nevertheless, within this design guide, you can easily locate
the necessary information to ensure you can apply these systems with confidence and provide for your client a fully
satisfactory medical air system. Medical air in smaller systems may be provided by manifolds in lieu of compressor
systems. The sizing criteria are the same for either source type.

Steps to Implementing the Medical Air System
DISCOVERY
1. Should existing equipment be incorporated along with the medical air system, determine the dimensions,
type, capacity and current loading of the existing equipment. Ensure the existing equipment is compatible
with the current standard.
2. Verify the number and type of all occupancies in the facility which will require medical air outlets.
3. Determine the number of ventilators required to be in service at any one time and define their type and
average inlet air requirement.
4. The intake piping for a medical air compressor system should only be connected to the medical air
compressor system and not used for any other purpose. It should be made of hard-drawn seamless copper,
either ASTM B 819 medical gas tube, ASTM B 88 water tube (Type K, L, or M), or ASTM B 280 ACR tube, which
ensures no contaminants in the form of particulate matter, odor or other gases will be added. This piping
is to be labeled and equipped with intake filters that are located inside the health care facility, close to the
compressor, and are easily accessible for servicing. Examine the location intended for the air intake carefully
as NFPA mandates the intake be located at a minimum of 10 ft. (3 m) from any door or operable window; 20
ft. (6.1 m) above grade, and in a location likely to provide uncontaminated air under any conditions of wind
or weather. The intake opening shall be turned downward and screened. It shall be accessible to authorized
personnel for cleaning, inspection and servicing. If the air intake is near a loading dock or at a location where
vehicles may be present, it must be relocated. It is advisable to place the intake at a height above any other
intake or vent on the same roof (see Figure 1 below). For further details regarding the rules and regulation in
choosing your medical air system location, please refer to the latest edition of the NFPA specification guide.

5. Determine a routing for the intake piping and note it on the building drawings. Piping downstream of the
compressor shall be routed in a manner such that it is not subjected to temperatures lower than 40 °F (4 °C).
6. Ensure the intended location for the air plant is adequately ventilated or is at minimum air conditioned. The
plant will emancipate a considerable amount of heat into the surroundings. Hence, it must be factored in
when selecting a compressor site; determining the adequacy of ventilation; or identifying BTU requirements
for air conditioning. (BTU data is furnished in the equipment data sheet).
7. Determine the availability of electrical service.
8. If the medical air system is not already piped to the proposed location, determine the routing for the piping
and note it on the building drawings.
DESIGN
1. Follow directions for laying out piped medical gases. This will supply a count of outlets which is necessary for
the next steps.
PLANT SIZING
1. There are several available methods for sizing Medical Air. For the purpose of this design guide, only the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Method will be discussed.
The NFPA Plant Sizing Method
1. Count all outlets within the infrastructure that will utilize the air compressor system (see Table 1 on next page).
In situations in which the exact type of room cannot be located within the table, please select the one which
most closely approximates the room as indicated in the chart.
2. Once the total amount of outlets are entered, the next step entails multiplying all variables across the table
(left to right) to apply the simultaneous usage factor.
3. Obtain an estimate of air requirement by summing the columns (top to bottom).
4. NFPA recommends the inclusion of additional capacity for potential ventilator use. However, this ventilator
factor causes significant problems and is usually the cause behind gross over-sizing for medical air plants.
Therefore, extreme caution should be taken.

PEAK CALCULATED DEMAND IN SCFM
BASED ON FREE AIR SCFM @ 50PSI:
Air
0.00
Note:
1. The SCFM above is based on a peak OUTLET demand of 50 psi. Air compressors operate at 100 psi. When sizing
a compressor, you MUST figure the compressor capacity for operation at 100 psi.
2. You need to consider several environmental factors when sizing the compressors. These include altitude,
intake air temperature, and relative humidity. Variance among these factors has considerable effect on
compressor selection.
3. Air outlets in labs used for analysis, research or teaching should be supplied by a separate compressed air
system, not the medical air system.
4. All sizing methods are only approximations and should be used judiciously. If an existing compressor is being
replaced, the operating characteristics of that compressor can be an important gauge of likely future use. For
example, if an existing 5 HP compressor provides an ample amount of medical air, but the sizing tables yield
much larger requirements; it may be suitable to use a smaller compromise unit as opposed to simply relying
on the results from the Amico Sizing Guide.
ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENTS
If the compressor is to be operated at higher elevations, the peak calculated demand should be multiplied by the
corresponding correction factor. Specifically, at altitudes above sea level, all medical air systems have reduced flow.
In such cases, the required sizing will need to be adjusted by taking the total PCL (SCFM) and multiplying it by the
correction factor (see Table 2 on next page).

COMPENSATING FOR FUTURE EXPANSION
The notion of adding capacity now for any future requirements is wise, but extreme caution is also advised. It
is common to see very badly oversized air plants which were initially sized to accommodate an expansion that
never occurred or that was scaled back and was not compulsory after all. In addition to the waste of investment, it
generates problems associated with the operation of the system. The best method in preparing for an anticipated
expansion is to opt for a plant which is adequate for the present need in a duplex or triplex system but can also
be upsized for future need by simply adding additional compressors as required. When specifying for the unit,
require it be purchased in preparation for additional compressor(s) yet not populated with those compressors. A
representative specification would read: “provide duplex medical air plant with triplex controls and air treatment
subsystem ready for a future third compressor”. Such a system provides an effective method of expanding the system
capacity, is more capital-efficient, and yields better operating characteristics and reliability when it comes to air
quality control. Nevertheless, it is fundamentally important that the intake, electrical service, and system piping are
correctly sized for the entire expected capacity, so these larger values should be used in all calculations.
PLANT SELECTION
1. Select a preferred technology (see Page 8). More specific assistance in selecting a technology may be
obtained by contacting your Local Amico Source Corporation representative.
2. Choose a Horsepower from the preferred technology with the capacity closest to (but typically greater than)
the Peak Calculated Load (PCL).
3. Note that for some technologies, there is more than one plant architecture. Should one or more layout be
available for selection, choose the one best suited to the site conditions. If in doubt as to which arrangement
is most suitable for a particular situation, contact your Local Amico Source Corporation representative for
assistance.
4. Reference the Technology Comparison Chart (page 8) for the particular system selected. This chart entails
all of the essential information regarding the system and should be utilized as a quick reference in all of the
following steps.

Amico Source Corporation
GENERAL LAYOUT
1. Place the plant in scale on the plan drawings in the designated location. Ensure that the plant has sufficient
space on all sides for maintenance access and proper ventilation. Amico Source Corporation recommends 2
ft. (24") minimum clearance on all sides, 3 ft (36") in front of the control panel, but it is sometimes possible to
reduce this clearance with exact knowledge of maintenance access requirements. Consult your Local Amico
Source Corporation representative if circumstances allow for less space.
2. Place the equipment in elevation views as appropriate.
3. On the plan, finalize the routing for the intake.
4. Size the intake piping. The sizing process is iterative:
a. Start with the total actual length of piping, and make an estimate for the line size (see Table 4).
b. By using your estimated size, add equivalent lengths for the fittings employed.
c. Check that the size of the intake piping is still suitable at the new equivalent length. Should there be
any discrepancies, re-estimate the next larger size and repeat the steps above. The line may also be
sized more precisely by conducting an actual calculation. Intake piping must be sized to induce no
more than 4 inches water column vacuum at the compressor when all compressors are operating.
(Use total capacity for this calculation with all compressors running).
For unusual lengths or other circumstances, please contact your local Amico Source Corporation
representative for assistance.
5. Finalize the connection to the distribution piping and size the system piping.
SPECIFICATION
1. Select the sections appropriate to the technology and system layout desired.
2. Note into the specification any exceptional requirements that are necessary (e.g., soft starters, etc.).
3. Schedule in the drawings the medical air plant selected.
Schedule at least:
a. The capacity per compressor (per NFPA) and total system capacity.
b. Horsepower per compressor.
c. Voltage, Hz, and phase desired.

Table 5: Example 1 - Calculating SCFM
After interviewing the hospital engineer, you find that the facility; which is located 2,000 feet above sea level, has 5
minor operating rooms, 6 ICU ventilators, 18 ICU beds and 12 recovery beds. They also want to have a 25% future
expansion. Calculate the total PCL for the facility's Medical Air system.

1. Based on the typical ventilator requirements for specific ventilator requirements, check with ventilator
manufacturer.
2. If the number of ventilators in the hospital is unknown, allow one ventilator per bed for 75% of the available
ICU/NICU beds.
3. The ICU area has 18 beds and 6 ventilators. The flow required for the ventilators supersedes that of the ICU
beds, so only 12 of the ICU beds are counted and added to the 6 ventilator requirements when determining
total facility requirements.
NOTE: To convert SCFM to LPM, multiply by 28.3
4. After reviewing Table 5 for a capacity of 75.8 SCFM, the correct sized system would be a Triplex 15 HP system.
