Delivered volume (FAD) versus Intake volume

Atlas Copco's ZS+ blowers are measured according to ISO 1217 Ed 4., stipulating the Free Air Delivery (FAD) measurement at the outlet of the package, net of all losses. Atlas Copco specifications correspond to the capacity and pressure the customer receives, not to the intake volume of the blower. Differences are often very substantial.
