Typical uses

It works well as the main air receiver downstream of a compressor rated at 13 or 15 bar, in a production plant whose compressor room has a low ceiling. Heavy-duty rubber vibration dampers belong under the feet, as the vessel is heavy. It is supplied in the painted version.

A smaller 16-bar vessel is VHP270-16, and the same size for 11 bar is VHP500-11. The vertical 16-bar version is VVP2-500-16.

Ventilek’s tip

The safety valve must have enough flow capacity. When set to 16 bar, it must be able to discharge at least as much air as the compressor delivers.
