Marine Air Receiver Tanks are essential components in compressed air systems on ships, storing pressurized air for various applications. They help stabilize air pressure, reduce compressor cycling, and ensure a steady air supply. These tanks are designed to withstand harsh marine environments and comply with stringent safety standards.

Marine Air Receiver Tanks are typically constructed from high-grade carbon steel (ASTM A516 Grade 70) or stainless steel (ASTM A240 Type 316L) for corrosion resistance. Common sizes range from 30 gallons to 500 gallons, with working pressures between 150 PSI and 300 PSI. Wall thickness varies based on pressure requirements, typically 6mm to 12mm. Buoyancy is negligible due to the dense material and compact design. Viscosity is not applicable as these are static pressure vessels. Compressed Air Systems include filters (5-40 microns), dryers (dew point -40°F), and lubricators (ISO VG 32 oil). Piping is often Schedule 80 carbon steel or copper-nickel (90/10) for marine environments.

Marine Air Receiver Tanks and Compressed Air Systems typically comply with maritime standards such as ASME BPVC Section VIII, ABS, DNV, LR, and other classification society requirements. Always verify with the manufacturer for specific certifications.
