It is important to always follow the proper safety guidelines when dealing with compressors.
This is normally due to manufacturing defects that cause corrosion of the tank from water condensate, improper usage or improper functioning of the device. While it is unlikely, there have been cases whee air compressor tanks have exploded. For us DIY workshop type compressor users, a bigger tank provides some benefit, but usually the difference in tank size means only a few seconds longer supply of compressed air, and we still have to wait regularly and often for the air compressor to kick in and bring the charge of compressed air in the tank back up to a usable level. When you are using compressed air continuously, you need a larger HP compressor AND a much larger air tank to ensure that air tools aren’t starved for air. On the compressor, the larger the air tank, the longer the compressed air will flow to the tool before the tank has to be recharged. On the flashlight, the larger the rechargeable battery, the longer the flashlight will run without recharging the battery. When the air tank on your compressor is discharged (zero pressure), you have to recharge it (run the compressor). When the battery is discharged, you have to recharge it. To make the whole air tank issue a little more simple, consider the air tank on a compressor like the battery of a rechargeable flashlight.
In this article, we will answer your question and provide the complete guide for air compressor tanks! Why Have A Compressed Air Tank? There are many questions out there regarding air compressor tanks including ‘why do air compresor tanks need to be drained?’, ‘Can an air compressor tank explode?’ and so on. Air compressor tanks are very important because they hold the compressed air under pressure.
