OUTDOOR INSTALLATION (SHELTERED)
ShopTek packages are equipped with TEFC motors
and have water tight controls that are NEMA 4 rated
and are suitable for sheltered outdoor installation.
The compressor should be mounted on a concrete
pad. If the pad is not level, the compressor must be
mounted in such a manner that its base or skid is
level in relation to the pad’s surface and fully
supported.
If the compressor will be exposed to blowing rain or
snow, it should be housed in a covered, four-walled
enclosure.
• Sheltered air-cooled machines must have
their exhaust air vented outside of the
enclosure.
• Installations consisting of more than one
compressor should be done in such a man-
ner that each compressor’s exhaust is
directed away from the air intakes of other
compressors or air dryers.
• A standard compressor should not be
started if the ambient temperature is 35°F
(1.7°C) or lower.
Compressor must not be operated in sub-
freezing conditions.
