1.1 Pressure Stabilization & Air Volume Buffering
Pneumatic production equipment often produces instantaneous peak air consumption during operation, which easily causes sharp pressure drop, unstable air supply and inconsistent processing quality without buffer equipment. As the core buffer device of the compressed air system, the air storage tank can store excess compressed air during low-load operation of the air compressor and quickly supplement air volume during peak gas consumption. It effectively balances the gas supply and demand of the pipeline, stabilizes the system working pressure, eliminates pressure fluctuation problems, and ensures the stability and consistency of spraying, assembly, cutting and other pneumatic processing procedures.
1.2 Primary Air Source Purification & Water-oil Separation
The compressed air output by the air compressor contains a large amount of water vapor, oil mist and fine dust impurities. After entering the air storage tank, the mixed gas will stand still inside the tank, and the liquid water and oil stains will settle at the bottom of the tank by gravity, realizing primary purification of the air source. This function greatly reduces the purification pressure of subsequent dryers and filters, avoids blockage, rust and damage of pneumatic valves, cylinders and pipeline accessories caused by impurity accumulation, and effectively prolongs the service life of terminal industrial equipment.
1.3 Energy Saving & Compressor Wear Reduction
Frequent start-stop and frequent loading and unloading of air compressors are the main causes of high power consumption and mechanical wear of pneumatic systems. The air storage tank has an efficient energy storage and buffering effect, which can effectively reduce the start-stop frequency of the air compressor, avoid instantaneous high-current power loss and mechanical impact friction generated by frequent start-up. It keeps the air compressor running in a stable load state for a long time, significantly reduces the overall power consumption of the workshop, and reduces equipment failure rate and later maintenance costs.
