PED Air Pressure Tank (is also called compressed air storage tanks, buffer tank, air receiver, surge tank, etc.) is used to store gas and stabilize the system pressure. According to the different requirements of customer, STRENGTH can produce high pressure, normal pressure or low pressure buffer tank of ASME, CE (PED), GB150 (China standard).

In mid-September, we received the inquiry of air pressure tank from Germany. Furthermore, the customer produces nitrogen generator and wants to purchase air pressure tank for nitrogen generator. In addition, the customer provided detailed parameters, volume 1.5m3, diameter 1000mm, working pressure 0.8MPa, 2 sets; volume 1m3, diameter 800mm, working pressure 3MPa, 1 set. Since the customer needs PED certification, and we quoted according to customer’s requirements.

For actually, PED (Pressure Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/EU) is a directive, a mandatory regulation issued by EU member states on the safety of pressure equipment. Regardless of its pressure and volume, all equipment whose design pressure exceeds 0.5bar (0.05MPa) must comply with the PED regulations.

In fact, the air inlet and outlet flange standard of the pressure tank is in accordance with B16.5-2013, the flange size is 2’’, and the nozzle is connected to the nitrogen generator by bolts. Moreover, the color of the buffer tank is white, with 2 logos on the front and back.

After fully communicating with the customer, we issued the construction drawings to the customer. Next, air pressure tank began production in early October. During this period, Lloyd’s Third Party AI came to our factory to review relevant data and verify the hydraulic test. In mid-November, the  PED air pressure tank shipped from Qingdao Port, China to Hamburg Port, Germany.
