Air receivers and compressors - see the pressure without a gauge on the tank

A receiver is a pressure vessel sitting in a corner: it gets a gauge on the top and nobody looks at it until something else fails. A battery sensor on the drain or test port, read from a phone, makes the check something you can do in passing.

Two different jobs

Range, stated plainly

The standard sensor is 0–500 kPa gauge (0–600 kPa absolute), about 5 bar. Typical workshop receivers run at 7–10 bar, which is above that: for those we specify a different sensor, or the customer uses a pressure reducing station to bring the measurement point into range. We will tell you which of the two applies before quoting.

What it gives you

What it does not do

It does not certify the vessel, it does not replace the safety valve, and without a receiver it does not alarm. A pressure sensor is a monitoring device, not a safety device.
