Standard psychrometric charts and performance data published
by manufacturers generally assume equipment operation at sea level. When a project is located at a significantly higher altitude, allowances must be made. Factors by which the usual (sea level) data must be multiplied when operating at higher altitudes are sum- marized in Table 4-2. For items not listed, consult appropriate sources, such as the Engineering Guide for Altitude Effects (Car- rier) or contact equipment manufacturers.
