83Z PRESSURE TANK (WATERBORNE COMPATIBLE)
IMPORTANT: Read and follow all
instructions and SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
before using this equipment. Retain
for future reference.
DESCRIPTION
The 83Z pressure tanks are designed as a
pressure container to supply liquid material
at a constant preset pressure up to a maxi-
mum of 80 PSI. The tanks are built to ASME
specifications. All models include stainless
steel wetted parts, a stainless steel lid and
polyethylene liner, allowing use with water-
borne materials. All models are for light to
medium duty use only.
Models:
83Z-210: Single regulation (fluid), air inlet/
outlet, fluid outlet, safety valve
83Z-220: Dual regulation (air and fluid), oth-
erwise same as 83Z-210
83Z-211: Single regulation (fluid), air driven
agitator assembly, fluid outlet, safety valve
83Z-221: Dual regulation (air and fluid), oth-
erwise same as 83Z-211
Small Tank - Up To 2.8 Gallons
Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents
- for example: 1,1,1, - trichloroethane
and methylene chloride - can
chemically react with aluminum
parts and components and cause
an explosion hazard. These solvents
will also corrode the galvanized tank
coating. Read the label or data sheet
for the material. Do not use
materials containing these solvents
with these pressure tanks.
Refer to specifications chart to
ensure that fluids and solvents
being used
compatible with the tank wetted
parts. Before placing fluids or
solvents in tank, always read
accompanying manufacturer's
literature.
Air pressure loads that are higher
than design loads, or changes to
the pressure feed tank can cause
the tank to rupture or explode.
• A safety valve protects the tank
from over pressurization. During
each use pull the ring on the safety
valve to make sure it operates freely
and relieves air pressure. If the
valve is stuck, does not operate
freely, or does not relieve air pres-
sure, it must be replaced. Do not
eliminate, make adjustments or
substitutions to this valve.
• Changes to the air tank will weaken
it. Never drill into, weld or change
the tank in any way.
• The maximum working pressure
of this tank is 80 psi.

Static electricity is created by the
flow of fluid through the pressure
tank and hose. If all parts are not
properly grounded, sparking may
occur. Sparks can ignite vapors
from solvents and the fluid being
sprayed.
If static sparking, or slight shock, is
experienced while using this equip-
ment, stop spraying immediately.
Ground the pressure tank by
connecting one end of a 12 gauge
minimum ground wire to the pressure
tank and the other end to a true earth
ground. Local codes may have
additional grounding requirements.
Pressure Relief Procedure
High pressure can cause a serious
injury. Pressure is maintained in
a pressure tank after the system
has been shut down. Before
attempting removal of fill plug or
cover, pressure must be relieved
using the following steps:
1. Turn off the main air supply
to the tank.
2. Close air inlet valve located
on tank air manifold.
3. Bleed off air in the tank by
turning the air relief valve thumb
screw counterclockwise.
until all the air has escaped
through the valve before
removing the pressure tank cover
or fill plug.
4. Leave the air relief valve open
until you have reinstalled the
cover or fill plug.
