2.5 Mechanical Equipment

 

One of the main design efforts for a paint booth is the location of the mechanical equipment. In this case, the low roof of the booth makes an ideal place to store the mechanical equipment. There is plenty of headroom and a wide area available.

 

Notice from Figure 2 that even off-the-shelf air make-up units can be arranged to provide the smaller amounts of airflow that this booth requires. The combined airflow is then ducted to the front plenum doors for distribution into the paint booth. The weight of the mechanical equipment and its access platforms are carefully located to be as close as possible to the very stiff and stable structure of the filter chamber.
