Room Considerations
When planning the space and environment for a PS Machine installa-
tion, consider ventilation and access for maintenance and repair.
Ventilation
Summary— Regarding ventilation, the minimum room size for any
PS System is 3 x 3 meters x 2.4 meters high (10 x 10 x 8 feet). However,
access space for a some machines require a larger room; see Access
Space below.
The PS System, and its optional components such as a Label or Laser
Marking System, contain mechanical components and electrical sys-
tems that generate heat and extremely low levels of particulate
matter.
The room should have suitable levels of general room heating, venti-
lation, and air conditioning. For an occupied office area, the Amer-
ican Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning
Engineers, Inc. (ASHRAE) Standard 62-1992 specifies a minimum of
15 cubic feet/minute (CFM) (0.424 cubic meters/minute) of air per
occupant. This level of ventilation is intended to provide the occu-
pants of the room with sufficient air movement to provide a comfort-
able environment.
However, because the PS System generates heat, an additional 85
CFM (2.40 meter
3
/minute) is recommended, bringing the total room
air exchange rate to 100 CFM (2.83 meter
3
/minute). In a room with
dimensions of 10 feet by 10 feet, with an 8 foot ceiling (800 cubic feet
of total interior area), 100 CFM would provide approximately six
room air changes per hour. (Metric room: 3.0 M x 3.0 M x 2.4 M
ceiling equals 22.65 cubic Meters of total interior area).
Based on industrial hygiene monitoring performed during the worst
case operating scenario of a PS System with Laser Marking, this rate
of air movement is sufficient to provide a safe and healthy work envi-
ronment regarding air quality.
Access Space
The PS System should be located in a room with adequate space to
allow easy access to all enclosures. A minimum of one meter (36
inches) of clearance on all sides is required for removal of system
components.
The table below lists recommended, minimum envelope size deter-
mined by the 1 meter access space required on each side:
The air movement is
intended to dissipate
heat, odors, and other
exhalation products
from respiration such as
carbon dioxide and
water vapor.

For example, a PS588 with laser marking equipment (Option Bay)
requires a minimum area of 3.5 meters long x 3.1 meters wide for
easy access.
