The Mofidi Compressed Air Receiver Tank is available in 50–5,000-liter capacities for 5–11 bar working pressure (low pressure). Mofidi Air Industry performs all tank welding with automatic welding machines, and every receiver undergoes the required tests to standard. It is designed for standard piston and rotary screw compressors (7–10 bar) and plays a key role in pressure stability, compressor service life and compressed air quality.

Why Does a Compressed Air System Need a Receiver?
- Longer compressor life: the receiver reduces the number of compressor starts and stops and its loaded running time.
- Stable pressure: stored air smooths out pressure fluctuations in the distribution line.
- Peak demand: when several tools run at once, the receiver covers short-term air shortages.
- Moisture separation: air cools in the tank, and part of its water collects at the bottom and is drained off.
Safety and Service Fittings
The Mofidi Compressed Air Receiver Tank is equipped with a safety valve that automatically releases excess pressure, a pressure gauge, two ball valves for inlet and outlet, and a 1/2″ drain valve for removing condensate. A lifting hook makes handling and installation safe and easy.
Choosing a Receiver by Pressure
The most important rule: the receiver’s working pressure must always be higher than the compressor’s maximum pressure. This receiver is rated for 5–11 bar and matches piston and rotary screw compressors. The table compares Mofidi’s three receiver classes:
| Receiver | Capacity | Working pressure | Suitable for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low pressure | 50–5,000 L | 5–11 bar | standard piston and rotary screw compressors (7–10 bar) |
| Medium pressure | 50–1,000 L | 16–25 bar | high-pressure compressors in the 15–20 bar range |
| High pressure | 50–500 L | 30–40 bar | high-pressure compressors in the 25–35 bar range and boosters |
Choosing the Tank Size
The right volume depends on your compressor’s air delivery, your consumption pattern and how many tools run at the same time. The more your demand fluctuates, the more a larger receiver helps stabilize pressure. Share your compressor specs and consumption with our engineers for an exact recommendation.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
- Drain condensate regularly to prevent internal corrosion.
- Inspect the safety valve and pressure gauge periodically.
- Install the receiver on a level surface in a ventilated area.
- For drier air, install a refrigerated air dryer or desiccant air dryer after the receiver.
