Air Compressors - Maximum Air Flow Inlet Pipe
Inlet pipe size and maximum air flow
Sponsored Links
The pressure loss through air compressor inlets should be kept to a minimum to avoid noise problems. The diagram below indicates reasonable maximum flow through inlet pipes.

- 1 cfm = 0.47 l/s
- 1 inch = 25.4 mm
