Marine air conditioning serves shipboard spaces by controlling temperature and humidity and treating the supply air. Design conditions depend on the space, occupants, equipment and project requirements.
The original article gives illustrative comfort ranges of 22–28°C and 40%–60% relative humidity. These are not universal design criteria or guaranteed equipment ratings. Confirm the required conditions in the project specification.
Equipment spaces may have their own environmental limits. Air conditioning alone should not be treated as proof of salt-mist or corrosion protection.
