Air Receiver Inspections
Air Receiver Inspections
At Compressed Air Systems UK, we specialize in delivering a comprehensive suite of services related to air compressors and their associated components within the industry. Among these, air receivers play a crucial role in any compressed air system. These vessels are designed to store highly pressurized air, helping to maintain consistent pressure levels and mitigate fluctuations that could disrupt the system’s efficiency and performance.
In addition to their operational significance, air receivers require regular maintenance to ensure optimal functionality and safety. If your business relies on air receiver tanks and the system has been in operation for over 12 months, it is essential to remember that you are legally obligated to conduct thorough inspections and maintenance to identify and rectify any potential defaults. This is not only critical for compliance with health and safety regulations but also to prevent costly downtime and ensure the longevity of your compressed air system.
Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (PSSR)
Air compressor systems must adhere to the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (PSSR) to ensure safe operation and compliance. Neglecting regular servicing and maintenance of these systems can lead to serious safety issues, including potential faults that could render your equipment inadequate or even illegal under current regulations.
Specifically, air receivers, which can have capacities as low as 50 litres, fall under the jurisdiction of the PSSR. These components are required to undergo mandatory reviews and thorough inspections to assess their integrity and overall safety.
At Compressed Air Systems UK, we bring over 30 years of specialized experience in the installation, servicing, and repair of air compressor systems. Our dedicated team offers comprehensive air receiver inspection services to confirm that your systems are fully compliant with PSSR regulations. We meticulously evaluate each component for signs of wear or damage to ensure that your equipment remains in optimal condition and identify any necessary repairs before they become critical issues. By partnering with us, you can have peace of mind knowing that your air compressor systems are not only legal but also operating safely and efficiently.
Why PSSR is Important
When compressed air is stored in a tank, it is maintained at high pressure, making the integrity of the air receiver tank critical. Any faults or defects in this vital component can create substantial safety hazards for both users of the air system and personnel working in proximity to the compressor.
At Compressed Air Systems UK, we understand the importance of a safe and efficient air system. Our expert engineers will visit your facility to conduct thorough inspections, ensuring that your air receivers are meticulously assessed and certified by a qualified examiner.
