The role of air compressor storage tank

air compressor storage tank, alias compressed air storage tank, is a professional high pressure container used to store compressed air, mainly with air compressor, refrigeration dryer, precision filter and other post-processing equipment supporting the use.

1. efficacy

air compressor storage tank has the following functions in the field application: cache, desuothermal, water removal and energy storage technology.

1. Used to store gas buffer, prevent the air compressor often loading and unloading and remove the vast majority of liquid water;

2. Because the air consumption at the end of the compressed air system software is generally unlikely to be stable at any time, the air storage tank should be used to balance the stability of the system pressure and reduce the frequent loading and unloading of the air compressor;

3. The compressed air is cooled again after drying to reduce the moisture content in the compressed air.

If the customer's requirements for oil content are high, it is proposed to match two post-filters (precision filter activated carbon filter); Some special industries (such as food materials, pharmaceutical industry, electronic devices, etc.), and even need to be equipped with suction air dryer and absolute filter.

2. application

when the compressed air passes through the air storage tank, the high-speed cyclone hits the wall of the air storage tank to generate flow collection. The temperature in the air storage tank is rapidly reduced, so that a lot of water vapor is liquefied, and a lot of water and oil are removed, thus alleviating the large load of the refrigeration dryer equipment (everyone can do a test here: when there is compressed air in the air storage tank, the drain valve below is fully opened to allow the gas to be discharged from the filter valve, it doesn't take long for two possibilities to emerge: the drain valve is very cold and can see ice blocks being discharged; The remaining 3-4KG of working pressure in the air storage tank cannot be discharged due to ice blockage. The cooling capacity of the gas storage tank can be seen here) when compressed air passes through the gas storage tank, because the gas storage tank can store a certain amount of gas and the output pressure is relatively stable, the stable cyclone passes through the filter and greatly develops the filtering function of the filter, thus widening the service life of the filter. the gas storage tank after the precision filter mainly plays the role of caching and energy storage, so that the gas entering the production workshop can be firmly and stably typed.

Because of the high efficiency of the air compressor air storage tank, the air storage tank must be added after the screw compressor air compressor. For example, the air compressor is like water resources, and the air storage tank is a reservoir. The air storage tank can set the standard air pressure within a certain working pressure range according to the setting, buffer the fluctuation of air pressure and reduce the operation frequency of the air compressor. In addition, the air storage tank can also have the function of depositing dirt such as residue moisture in the air.
