Fields of application & selection help
Steel pressure vessels are the first choice when cost-efficiency, robustness and short delivery times are key. Typical applications include compressor systems (compressed air storage), building technology (heating/cooling), water and fire protection systems, industrial inert gas supply (e.g. nitrogen), and buffer storage in processes.
- ?Medium: compressed air, water, nitrogen or other neutral medium?
- ?Installation site: indoor/outdoor, humid environment → galvanized version recommended
- ?Design: vertical (small footprint) or horizontal (low overall height)
- ?Volume & pressure level: according to requirements and system design (11/16 bar)
