When the air surrounding a compressor is unsuitable for the intended use, a Remote Air Intake is required. Designed for use with Nuvair's Mini Tech compressors, this metal 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. Does not comply with OSHA standards.
When the air surrounding a compressor is unsuitable for the intended use, a Remote Air Intake is required. The NUVRAI-OEM-MT Remote Air Intake comes fully assembled. Does not comply with OSHA standards.
