Stabilize Your Air Supply: Benefits of Horizontal Air Receivers
We offer both imported (CE & AIA certified) and locally manufactured options to suit your needs.
The Airpower Advantage:
- Choice and Flexibility: We offer a wide range of horizontal air receiver sizes and pressure ratings to suit your specific needs.
- Quality and Compliance: Our air receivers are manufactured according to international standards and meet all South African regulations.
Boost Compressor Performance and Efficiency with Horizontal Air Receivers
Airpower offers high-quality horizontal air receivers, certified to meet international standards (CE or ASME) and approved by local authorities (AIA). These vessels play a vital role in optimizing your compressed air system by:
Maintaining Consistent Pressure:
The pressure switch or pressure transducer on your compressor monitors the pressure in your compressed air system. Horizontal Air Receivers, as well as Vertical Air Receivers, act as a buffer, preventing rapid pressure fluctuations when your compressor cycles on and off. This reduces wear and tear on your compressor, extending its lifespan.
Removing Moisture for Cleaner Air:
As compressed air cools within the receiver, condensation forms. The horizontal design allows for better air-to-metal contact, maximizing condensate collection. A properly drained receiver ensures clean, dry air for your tools and equipment.
Handling Peak Demand Periods:
Air needs can fluctuate. A horizontal air receiver acts as a reserve, providing a surge of compressed air to meet temporary spikes in demand, preventing compressor overload.
Protecting Your Dryer:
Installing air receivers strategically (one before and one after your air dryer) reduces pressure fluctuations experienced by the dryer. This minimizes flooding and optimizes dryer performance.
Refrigerated Dryers
Refrigerated air dryers from 750 liters/min up to 17000 liter/min ex-stock. Larger ex overseas. Dew point 4°C under pressure. Automatic drain pre and manual drain after filters.
Screw Compressors
Screw compressors have no valves or other mechanical forces to cause imbalances unlike piston compressors.
Compressor Components
Airpower keeps universal spare parts for compressors. Pressure switches, non return valves and safety valves are universal to all compressors. Bottom entry filters/ regulators, electric motors and starters can be used for many makes of compressors.
