Remote Air Intakes for Quincy 5120 Compressor Blocks
When the air surrounding a compressor is unsuitable for the intended use, Remote Air Intakes are required. Designed for use with Nuvair's Quincy 5120 compressor blocks, Remote Air Intakes draw fresh air away from a compressor’s location. A remote source of fresh air is critical when using engine-powered compressors due to carbon monoxide (CO) in gas and diesel engine exhaust fumes. Standard hose lengths: 15 feet (4.5 m). Quick disconnect fittings come as standard equipment. Because of the Quincy 5120 v-block design, two (2) Remote Air Intakes are required.
When the air surrounding a compressor is unsuitable for the intended use, a Remote Air Intake is required. The Remote Air Intake comes fully assembled.
