Compressed Air Tanks, or Compressed Air Receivers, are a vital and often overlooked part of a healthy, complete compressed air system. Spare compressed air increases rest periods for your compressors and compressed air treatment equipment. Increased rest periods increase the longevity of your compressed air system.
A 60-gallon air tank can optimize and improve the efficiency of your air system. These tanks can dampen the pulsations from the compressor because the pressure spikes will not affect storage, but they could be detrimental to your hoses and point-of-use equipment. Having tanks in place can ensure that you always have consistent airflow.
A good rule of thumb for compressed air storage is to have 3-4 Gallons of storage for every CFM you have. Using the metric system, this would be 10-15 liters for each CFM of compressed air, although you likely will never need to know that conversion if you are based in the US. If you have a 60-Gallon Air Tank, you will most likely be operating around 15-20 CFM during peak demand.
60-gallon air tanks come in many variations to fit wherever you need them. Whether you need a vertical tank due to limited horizontal space or a horizontal tank to mount your compressor, tank options are available. The most crucial aspect of your new compressed air tank is ensuring the sizing matches up. Factors like orientation, extra bells and whistles, and even PSI can only be meaningful if the tank fits in your system.
The smaller size of 60 gallon air tanks introduces more mounting options. There are multiple different types of fastening equipment, from base rings to feet or saddle legs; there are numerous different versions for each orientation to help power your compressed air tools.
Compressed air demand experiences spikes and dips during the production process. It is vital to ensure that spikes do not cause the tank to dip below operating pressure by using too much air. The compressed air storage acts as a buffer during peak demand.
By including compressed air storage in your system, you reduce the energy consumed by your air compressor. The compressor will shut off when the receiver is full and will not cut back on until the tank loses a specific volume; thus, the cycle continues.
Compressed air storage acts as an emergency buffer. You can shut down the compressor if necessary without losing out on all of your production. It also allows you to finish the process in progress without ruining any of your final products.
Other things to remember with your compressed air storage are the amount of water produced by compressed air and accounting for pressure drop. Your system’s water needs depend on compressor run time and daily humidity. You may need to invest in extra moisture management if you live in a more humid area.
