AIR-COM BAGLIONI are the pressure vessels and air receivers of the Italian Baglioni group, which has been making pressure vessels since 1968. We offer vessels from 5 to 10,000 litres for compressed air and nitrogen, in special versions also for oxygen, for pressures up to 42 bar and for vacuum.
An air receiver downstream of the compressor holds a reserve of air, evens out fluctuating demand and means the compressor does not start as often. You can choose vertical and horizontal carbon steel vessels – painted, galvanised or with the food-grade ALM coating – stainless steel vessels in AISI304 and AISI316L, and fully equipped vessels ready to connect.

How to choose and connect an air receiver
1. Volume
The size depends on the compressor output and on how the demand varies. The more the demand fluctuates and the more often the compressor starts, the more a larger vessel pays off.
2. Pressure
The pressure on the vessel’s data plate must be at least as high as the maximum compressor pressure. A compressor up to 10 bar needs an 11 or 12-bar vessel, one that cuts out at 13 or 15 bar a 16-bar vessel.
3. Equip
Fit a safety valve with a flow rate above the compressor’s intake capacity directly on the vessel. Add a pressure gauge, shut-off valves and a valve or automatic drain for the condensate.
4. Drain condensate
Drain the condensate every day, otherwise a painted vessel rusts from the inside. Have the vessel checked for internal corrosion every 12 months.
Frequently asked questions
- Who makes AIR-COM BAGLIONI vessels?
- The Italian Baglioni group, based in San Pietro Mosezzo near Novara. It has made pressure vessels since 1968, today in nine plants on three continents, including the AIR COM plant in China, and sells its products worldwide. The group’s Italian plant was formed in 1971 and has a team of twenty people working on 2,000 m². It makes accessories for air and cleaning equipment, small quiet compressors for workshops and hobby use, as well as airbrushes and accessories for fine art. Its production is certified to ISO 9001, TÜV Germany and CSA Canada.
- What else do I need for a stand-alone vessel?
- A safety valve, a pressure gauge, shut-off valves and a valve or automatic drain for the condensate. For vertical vessels from 100 to 3,000 l there are ready-made fittings kits: KVP for painted and KVG for galvanised vessels, with a safety valve set to 10.5 bar.
- Painted, galvanised or with ALM coating?
- A painted vessel has blue RAL 5015 paint outside and bare steel inside and suits dry, heated rooms. A galvanised vessel is hot-dip galvanised inside and out, so it belongs in damp conditions and in plants with a lot of condensate. The ALM internal coating is intended for air that comes into contact with food.
- Can I put the vessel outdoors or in frost?
- Standard vessels are rated from −10 °C. For outdoors or an unheated hall, choose a vessel rated down to −20 °C, which withstands −20 to +80 °C. Stainless steel vessels up to 270 l are rated down to −80 °C.
- Are the vessels also suitable for nitrogen and oxygen?
- For nitrogen, yes: standard vessels are intended for compressed air and nitrogen. Oxygen and other group 1 fluids except hydrogen can be stored in oxygen vessels with white RAL 9010 paint and ALM coating inside, in vessels rated down to −20 °C and in high-pressure vessels.
- What documents come with the vessel?
- Vessels for compressed air bear the CE marking and come with a declaration of conformity and instructions for use and maintenance. Standard small and medium vessels comply with Directive 2014/29/EU, large, stainless steel, high-pressure and oxygen vessels with Directive 2014/68/EU. Vacuum vessels are made to standard EN 286-1 and do not bear the CE marking.
A Czech technical data sheet with dimensions and connections is available for download with every vessel, and a parts list with every fittings kit. The vessels are made by the Italian Baglioni group (Baglioni S.p.A.).
