Pressure Vessel for Compressed Air Storage (1m³ to 80m³)
Product Overview
This carbon steel air receiver tank is a stationary pressure vessel designed for the storage of compressed air and other non-hazardous gases. It is composed of a cylindrical shell, dished ends, flanges, nozzles, sealing elements, and supports. The tank is manufactured under a strict ISO9001 quality management system.
The product line covers standard volumes from 1m³ to 80m³, with diameters from 850mm to 1800mm. Design parameters are unified at 100℃ maximum temperature and 0.86MPa design pressure (0.8MPa working pressure). Custom sizes and configurations are available upon request.
