AIR RECEIVER TANK
Absolutely essential to any compressed air system, air receiver tanks not only serve as temporary storage, but they also allow your system to perform more efficiently. Because of the immense pressure they contain and because of their importance to an air compressor system, air receiver tanks must be built to be exceptionally durable and strong. To be sure that your air tanks will last you many years to come and will be able to handle the pressures of everyday use, it is absolutely essential to purchase from reputable dealers and brands.
There are many types of applications requiring air receiver tanks, including improving speed or torque, storage to protect from pressure fluctuations, storage to meter a high flow-rate application into a system, and more. No matter the use, it’s important to size the air receiver tank for your needs. Size a tank based on the compressor output, system size and air demand cycles. One method to estimate the receiver size is this formula:
V = (Q x Pa) / (P1 + Pa)
Where:
V = receiver size in cubed feet
Q = compressor output in cfm
Pa = standard atmospheric pressure in psia
P1 = compressed pressure in psia
