Howo iron gas cylinders, typically 20 liters in size, are primarily used for the following purposes:
- Energy storage: Stores the gas compressed by the air compressor, providing an air supply for vehicle braking systems, air horns, and other pneumatic devices. During vehicle operation, the air compressor has a limited instantaneous pumping capacity; therefore, the air reservoir tank can store air in advance, ensuring that systems like the brakes have sufficient air when needed, thus guaranteeing safe and smooth vehicle operation.
- Filtering: Dust, water molecules, and impurities like oil that may be carried in by the air compressor—such as airborne dust and moisture—enter the air receiver tank along with the compressed air. Because these contaminants are denser than air, they settle at the bottom of the steel tank, effectively filtering out unwanted particles. This process helps minimize the entry of impurities into the air system, ultimately extending the service life of components like brake valves and wheel cylinders.
- Voltage Regulation: The reciprocating motion of the air compressor piston causes unstable output air pressure. The air receiver tank allows compressed air to first accumulate inside before being released as gas with stable pressure, ensuring a consistent supply and enabling systems like the braking system to operate smoothly. This, in turn, enhances braking performance and improves vehicle driving safety.
- Cooling down: When outside air is compressed by an air compressor, its temperature rises, leading to lower air density, reduced storage volume, and difficulty in moisture separation. A receiver tank can cool down the compressed air, helping to enhance storage efficiency, maintain high-quality compressed air, and ensure it better meets the air requirements of vehicles.
