How to Choose the Right Air Receiver Tank Size
Selecting the correct tank size ensures your compressed air system runs efficiently and extends compressor lifespan.
Sizing Rule of Thumb:
Choose a tank with volume 4–10 times your compressor’s flow rate (CFM).
| Compressor Flow Rate | Recommended Tank Size |
|---|---|
| 20 CFM | 80L–200L |
| 60 CFM | 240L–600L |

Common Mistakes to Avoid During Installation or PMT
Avoid costly setbacks by following these best practices:
Incorrect Orientation – Ensure horizontal tanks are properly leveled
Missing Documents – Hydrostatic test (JKJ 127), nameplates & NDT reports are essential
Unregistered Imports – DIY or non-JKKP tanks may be rejected by DOSH
No Maintenance Log – A well-documented service history supports PMT renewal
Maintenance Checklist & Pre-JKKP Audit Preparation
Routine checks extend service life and ease the PMT process.
| Task | Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Inspection | Monthly | Check for leaks, corrosion, dents, paint wear |
| Pressure Gauge Calibration | Annually | Required for inspection accuracy |
| Drain Moisture | Daily/Weekly | Test auto/manual drains for function |
| NDT Testing | Upon Request | Available for all ASME-registered units |
| PMT Renewal & Audit | Every Cycle | We provide full support and coordination |
