*	In the case of multi-compressor stations, this is generally a small peak load compressor; however, the calculation can also be performed for base load compressors. As a general rule, the larger the compressed air reservoir, the more effectively and quietly the compressor station switches.
**	Maximum permissible switching cycles per hour of the largest switching compressor. Guideline values: For compressors up to 18.5 kW Z=120, up to 75 kW Z=60, over 75 kW Z=30.
***	Critical case: Compressors should switch most frequently at 50% load capacity Load factor A = (2/1) = 0.5
