Speedaire 1TZY9 air tank is suitable for storing compressed air, essential for powering pneumatic tools and equipment in construction, automotive repair, manufacturing and more. Additionally, it supports air suspension systems in vehicles, ensuring smooth rides and stability. In agriculture, it facilitates tasks like spraying and irrigation.
Working Mechanism:
- This stationary 175 psi air tank operates by utilising a piston compressor system.
- As the piston compresses air, it forces it into the tank, increasing the air pressure inside.
- This compressed air is then stored in the tank until needed for various applications.
- When a pneumatic tool or equipment requires air, the compressed air is released from the tank through a valve, supplying the necessary pressure for operation.
- The stationary design ensures stable placement and continuous availability of compressed air, making it ideal for industrial settings requiring a reliable air supply.
Features:
- This Speedaire 1TZY9 air tank features steel construction, ensuring durability and structural rigidity.
- It has a maximum operating pressure of 175 psi.
- This stationary 175 psi air tank includes a horizontal tank style, facilitating easy installation and integration into existing systems.
- It complies with ASME U Stamp certification.
Compatible Accessories:
- Speedaire 13X534 Auto Drain Valve: This timed electric auto drain valve effectively removes condensate from air tanks, preventing moisture buildup and corrosion. This enhances the longevity and performance of pneumatic equipment and downstream components. Its timed operation ensures automatic drainage at preset intervals, reducing manual intervention and maintenance costs. Also, it promotes improved air quality by eliminating moisture, thus enhancing the efficiency and reliability of compressed air systems in industrial settings, including manufacturing, automotive, construction and more.
