LP Volume Tanks

Nuvair manufacturers low pressure volume tanks (air receivers) in horizontal, vertical, grasshopper, and top plate configurations. Standard sizes from 13.3 to 400 gallon sizes with larger sizes available. Packages with breathing air filtration are built around high quality tanks to the latest ASME code. The volume tanks are painted with a primer coat and optional durable acrylic enamel top coat. Framed tanks are enclosed in rugged marine grade aluminum frames and have eyes and/or forklift feet. Brass fittings and stainless steel hardware are used on all our low volume tanks. Breathing air packages are available with Norgren or Hankison filter systems installed and additional types of inlet and outlet fittings.

The use of a volume tank with low pressure compressors has several purposes:

  • Removal of moisture
  • Decrease the wear and tear of your compressor by reducing cycling
  • Provide a short back up supply of air should the compressor be shut off

Nuvair stocks 15, 30, 60, 80, 120 and 200 gallon volume tanks and can custom order larger tanks.
