Variety and flexibility, all with quality
Chicago Pneumatics vertical air receivers are available from 100 until 5000 litres and in three types: painted galvanized and vitrified vessels (vitroflex).
- Painted vessels – Pained vessels are used in the majority of cases, where the air receiver is not submitted to severe weather conditions and perfectly clean air so not an absolute prerequisite. The paint job ensures protection against corrosion.
- Galvanized vessels – Galvanized is used to protect steel against corrosion. The process itself is simple: the vessel is completely submerged in a zinc liquid bath. As a result, the zinc coating perfectly adheres to the entire surface of the tank, ensuring full protection of the steel.
- Vitrified vessels (vitroflex) – These vessels are treated with vitreous enamel, making them water and steam resistant. The complete reliability of this type of treatment is the result of the inorganic composition and the link created between the enamel and metal surface. After having been baked at 850°C, the enamel no longer absorbs water and fully protects the vessel against corrosion.
