The pressure vessel of the air compressor has reached its design service life. Can it still be used?
Once the design service life of a pressure vessel for an air compressor has expired, it must not be put back into service. The design service life serves as a safety‑based reference period rather than an absolute end‑of‑life…

Selection Guide for Air Compressors When Pneumatic Tools Operate at a Working Pressure of 0.6 to 0.7 MPa
This article provides a detailed analysis of key considerations for selecting an air compressor when using pneumatic tools operating at pressures between 0.6 and 0.7 MPa. It covers discharge‑volume calculations, pressure matching, receiver tank configuration, and practical maintenance…
The air compressor host itself is not classified as special equipment; however, the accompanying air receivers and pressure piping that meet specified parameters are considered special equipment. Enterprises are required by law to register their use, conduct periodic…
This paper examines whether a 0.8 MPa gas storage tank can be connected to its safety valve using galvanized steel piping. It analyzes the pressure-bearing capacity of galvanized pipes, their connection methods, and relevant installation codes, emphasizing that,…
In industrial foreign trade and technical exchanges, accurately conveying equipment names is of paramount importance. This article provides a detailed analysis of the English translations for air compressors, screw compressors, and air receivers, along with complete English expressions…
Many companies, when designing their production lines, often consider locating air-compressor receiver tanks directly within the workshop to save space. However, as pressure vessels, receiver tanks must be installed in strict compliance with safety regulations. This article examines…
Significant water accumulation inside an air compressor is typically caused by condensation during the compression process. Moisture not only accelerates equipment corrosion but also emulsifies the lubricating oil, compromising the proper operation of downstream pneumatic devices. This article…
