Air reservoirs, also called compressed air tanks, are pressure-rated containers designed to store compressed air for later use in pneumatic systems. These reservoirs serve as temporary storage tanks, balancing pressure fluctuations and maintaining a consistent air supply to downstream equipment. An air reservoir is typically made from rugged stainless steel or aluminium and comes in various capacities, port connections, sizes, and configurations to suit different needs. By accumulating compressed air, an air receiver helps optimise compressor efficiency and provides a quick burst of air when needed.
Why Buy an Air Reservoir?
Having a quality air reservoir is beneficial for any pneumatic system. These storage tanks help regulate air pressure, reduce compressor wear, and provide a buffer to handle peak demand. These compressed air tanks are available in compact, space-saving designs, volumes, bore sizes, port connections, and configurations to ensure uninterrupted system operation.
View Our Best-in-Class Compressed Air Tanks:
Our premium air reservoirs are available in a wide range of configurations tailored to meet your specific needs. Choose from volumes ranging from compact 100ml units to large-capacity tanks exceeding 30 litres for industrial setups. Our air receivers support multiple port connections—including G1, G1/2, G1/4, and G3/8 BSP or NPT threads—for seamless integration into diverse pneumatic networks. Designed to withstand varied working pressures, such as a 20bar air reservoir or higher, each tank is engineered with precision-welded seams and corrosion-resistant coatings. Customers can also select based on different bore diameters and orientations (horizontal or vertical) to accommodate space constraints.
