These surges can be caused by variations in demand, sudden changes in airflow, or the cyclic nature of reciprocating compressors. The tank absorbs these pressure fluctuations, reducing stress on the compressor and other components, and providing a more stable and consistent supply of compressed air.
5. Energy Efficiency: Air compressor tanks contribute to energy efficiency by reducing the need for the compressor to run continuously. The compressor can fill the tank during periods of low demand and then shut off when the desired pressure is reached. This allows the compressor to operate in shorter cycles, reducing energy consumption and minimizing wear and tear on the compressor motor.
6. Emergency Air Supply: In the event of a power outage or compressor failure, the stored compressed air in the tank can serve as an emergency air supply. This can provide temporary air for critical operations, allowing time for maintenance or repairs to be carried out without disrupting the overall workflow.
Overall, air compressor tanks provide storage, pressure regulation, moisture separation, heat dissipation, pressure surge mitigation, energy efficiency, and emergency backup capabilities. They are vital components that enhance the performance, reliability, and longevity of air compressor systems in various industrial, commercial, and personal applications.

The main power range is from 132kw to 200kw, the air pressure range is from 6bar to 13bar and the air fow range is from 23.8m3/min to 43m3/min.
3.Core components
Motor
- More stable: no mechanical transmission troubles
There is no gear shaft in the air compressor and the effective permanent magnet motor and the male rotor are directly connected on 1 shaft without gear drive, which can eliminate pitting of gear or hidden troubles of tooth fracture.
Without shaft coupling, 2 integrated PM motors directly drive 2 airends of the air compressor, avoiding the hidden troubles of shaft coupling failure. - More energy-savings: the airend is always in a smooth running state
The 2 stage 3 phase permanent magnet rotary gear screw air compressor of CHINAMFG is powered by 2 independent PM motors and 2 independent inverters, which is intelligently controlled such as keep the airend running at a best level-pressure point by controlling discharge pressure and interstage pressure under the circumstance of different rotary speed and different pressure. The best running speed of air compressor can be automatically calculated while running and then the compression ratio can be balanced by final match, which can keep the compressor in a best running state, thus obtaining the highest efficiency. - More effective: high-efficiency permanent magnet motor and no gear drive loss.
With a motor of a high protection degree of IP54, it is more energy-saving and it can stay effective at low frequency and low speed. - More environment-friendly operation with lower noise
No noise of motor bearings, gear meshing and coupling transmission. - More structure-compact
The volume of PM motor is small and the structure is compact, which can save much space.
4.Specifications and parameters
5.Principle of energy-saving
- Change the traditional induction motor with high-efficiency technology of permanent magnet rotary screw motor, thus reducing the consumption in transmission.
- Powered by 2 independent PM motors and 2 independent inverters, the compressor is intelligently controlled such as keep the airend running at a best level-pressure point by controlling pressure of air flow and interstage pressure under the circumstance of different rotary speed and different pressure. The best running speed of compressor can be automatically calculated while running and then the compression ratio can be balanced by final match, which can keep the compressor in a best running state, thus obtaining the highest efficiency.
- Because the gear ratio is fixed, point efficiency is emphasized in this case. That is to say, only with fixed rotary speed and rated pressure did it have the best specific power. When running in a state of variable speed and variable frequency, considering the fixed speed of gear, interstage pressure will not reach the best one. Rotational speed declining while energy consumption not declining at the same time, it is not suitable for running in variable speed and variable frequency state.

1. Compressor Pump: The compressor pump is the heart of the air compressor system. It draws in ambient air and compresses it to a higher pressure. The pump can be reciprocating (piston-driven) or rotary (screw, vane, or scroll-driven) based on the compressor type.
2. Electric Motor or Engine: The electric motor or engine is responsible for driving the compressor pump. It provides the power necessary to operate the pump and compress the air. The motor or engine’s size and power rating depend on the compressor’s capacity and intended application.
3. Air Intake: The air intake is the opening or inlet through which ambient air enters the compressor system. It is equipped with filters to remove dust, debris, and contaminants from the incoming air, ensuring clean air supply and protecting the compressor components.
4. Compression Chamber: The compression chamber is where the actual compression of air takes place. In reciprocating compressors, it consists of cylinders, pistons, valves, and connecting rods. In rotary compressors, it comprises intermeshing screws, vanes, or scrolls that compress the air as they rotate.
5. Receiver Tank: The receiver tank, also known as an air tank, is a storage vessel that holds the compressed air. It acts as a buffer, allowing for a steady supply of compressed air during peak demand periods and reducing pressure fluctuations. The tank also helps separate moisture from the compressed air, allowing it to condense and be drained out.
6. Pressure Relief Valve: The pressure relief valve is a safety device that protects the compressor system from over-pressurization. It automatically releases excess pressure if it exceeds a predetermined limit, preventing damage to the system and ensuring safe operation.
7. Pressure Switch: The pressure switch is an electrical component that controls the operation of the compressor motor. It monitors the pressure in the system and automatically starts or stops the motor based on pre-set pressure levels. This helps maintain the desired pressure range in the receiver tank.
8. Regulator: The regulator is a device used to control and adjust the output pressure of the compressed air. It allows users to set the desired pressure level for specific applications, ensuring a consistent and safe supply of compressed air.
9. Air Outlet and Distribution System: The air outlet is the point where the compressed air is delivered from the compressor system. It is connected to a distribution system comprising pipes, hoses, fittings, and valves that carry the compressed air to the desired application points or tools.
10. Filters, Dryers, and Lubricators: Depending on the application and air quality requirements, additional components such as filters, dryers, and lubricators may be included in the system. Filters remove contaminants, dryers remove moisture from the compressed air, and lubricators provide lubrication to pneumatic tools and equipment.
These are the key components of an air compressor system. Each component plays a crucial role in the generation, storage, and delivery of compressed air for various industrial, commercial, and personal applications.
