Gas storage tank

Working Principle High-pressure compressed air produced by the air compressor is first stored in the air tank. When the peak gas consumption of downstream equipment exceeds the compressor's output rate, the stored gas in the tank can quickly supplement the pressure, stabilizing the pipeline pressure and preventing significant fluctuations. The compressed air settles slowly within the tank, allowing condensed water and lubricating oil impurities carried by the gas to sink to the bottom due to gravity. By regularly opening the bottom drain valve, these contaminants can be discharged. Additionally, when the pressure reaches the upper limit, the air compressor shuts down, relying on the stored gas in the tank to maintain downstream supply. This reduces frequent start-stop cycles of the main unit, effectively extending the overall service life of the air compressor. Application Fields 1. General mechanical processing: Stabilizes the pressure of pneumatic fixtures and pneumatic tool pipelines in machine tools, preventing pressure fluctuations from affecting machining accuracy. 2. Laser cutting support: Works with air compressors and cold dryers to form a complete gas source system, ensuring stable gas supply to protect cutting equipment. 3. Spray painting industry: Stabilizes the gas source pressure to prevent uneven paint output, improving the uniformity of the paint coating on workpieces. 4. Chemical automation workshops: Provides a continuous and stable gas source for pneumatic valves and diaphragm pumps, ensuring uninterrupted chemical processes. 5. Mining and construction sites: Pairs field air compressors with air tanks to buffer pipeline pressure, accommodating the intermittent high-flow gas demands of pneumatic picks and rock drilling equipment.
