_ _ WARNING: RiSK OF BURSTING
Air Tank: On February 26, 2002, the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission published Release # 02-108 concerning air
compressor tank safety:
Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life. Tank
life is dependent upon several factors, some of which include
operating conditions, ambient conditions, proper installations, field
modifications, and the level of maintenance. The exact effect of
these factors on air receiver life is difficult to predict.
Ifproper maintenance procedures are not followed, internal corrosion
to the inner wall of the air receiver tank can cause the air tank to
unexpectedly rupture allowing pressurized air to suddenly and
forcefully escape, posing risk of injury to consumers.
Your compressor air tank must be removed from service by the end
of the year shown on your tank warning label.
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank,
and result in a violent air tank explosion:
