Receiver Tanks

Blackhawk Equipment carries quality receiver tanks designed and constructed in accordance with ASME Section VIII Div-I Code for compressed air storage usage. All tanks are “U"stamped and registered with the National Board of Pressure Vessel Inspectors. Most air receiver tanks provide temporary storage for compressed air. It also helps your air compression system run more efficiently. An air receiver tank has three main functions in your compressed air system:

• It stores compressed air that can be used for shorter, high-demand events. 
• It provides a constant air signal to compressor controls to avoid running out of air. 
• When used as a “wet tank”, it acts like a secondary heat exchanger, increasing the efficiency of your air dryer or other related systems.
