b) Provide an emergency eyewash/safety shower
conforming to ANSI Z358.1, and floor drains in hangar bays,
paint mixing rooms, and paint equipment rooms. Refer to par.
3.8.a) for discharge requirements.
c) Provide an oil separator for drains from the hangar
area and paint mixing rooms and paint equipment cleaning rooms.
d) Storm-water drains should be located a minimum of
305 mm ( 12 inch) from the hangar access door rails.
e) Provide AFFF/sprinkler discharge collection/
retention system when required by environmental regulations.
f) Provide a connection to the station Industrial Waste
Treatment System or to a collection tank from all drains. The
corrosion control process generates large amounts of water that
could potentially hold solid or liquid paint residue or other
solvents and wastes.
3.4.4
Compressed Air. Provide low pressure air for operation
of tools and for breathing air in accordance with the following
criteria:
a) Provide low pressure compressed air at 40 percent to
60 percent humidity and at 862 kPa (125 psig) for shop use. Air
should be oil-free to prevent paint contamination. Air outlets
supplying tools requiring lubrication should be equipped with an
in-line lubricator. Rotary oil-free compressors are recommended
since this compressed air may be used as a source for breathing
air at lower life cycle costs.
b) Provide low pressure compressed air at 138 kPa (20
psig) or higher if required, at 40 percent to 60 percent
humidity for breathing air in the hangar bays. Breathing air
may be obtained from the oil-free shop air source through final
purifiers in each bay or from a separate breathing air
compressor and piping system. Breathing air from the oil-free
shop air source is preferred because of lower cost.
c) The air outlets (quick connect fittings) for oil-
free shop air, lubricated tool air, and breathing air should be
