These are either horizontal or vertical installations depending upon the space availability. The sizes may vary from 100 liters to 10 Meter cube. On horizontal receivers the compressor and motor can be mounted to save the space of operation. Compressors upto 20HP can be suitably mounted on the horizontal tanks upto 500 liters capacity.
Construction :
All receivers are made from carbon steel and built to IS-2825 or ASME code section VIII. The working pressures may vary from 75 psig (5kg/square cm) to 750 psig (50kg/square cm). Vessels can be manufactured as per other codes if required.
Each Vessel is fitted with a pressure relief value, a pressure gauge, a drain valve, air inlet and air outlet connections for pressure switch and other safety fittings can be supplied on request. Each vessel is hydrostatically tested as per the relevant code. Other non destructive testing like radiography, Ultrasonic test etc. can be provided if required.
