• Included Safety Fittings: Each unit is equipped with a safety valve for overpressure protection and a drain valve for condensate removal.
  
• Standard Volume Range: Available in capacities from 0.05m³ to 15m³.

Applications：

• Main Engine Starting: Provides the powerful, instant air pressure needed to start large marine diesel engines.
• Auxiliary & Generator Starting:  A reliable power source for all secondary engines.
• Whistle & Horn Operation: Ensures a ready supply of air for critical safety signals.
• Control Systems & Pneumatic Tools: Supplies stable air pressure for automated controls and maintenance tools.

Installation & Maintenance：

Installation: The unit is designed for secure mounting on its integrated steel base. Ensure the foundation is level and provides adequate support. Connections are clearly marked for straightforward piping integration.
Maintenance: The valves and control panels can be arranged either in a centralized manner or in a decentralized manner. We recommend daily draining of condensate via the bottom drain valve to prevent internal corrosion. Periodically test the safety valve to ensure correct function.
