Pressure Paint Pot Tank
What Is a Paint Pressure Tank?
A paint pressure tank, also known as a pressure feed tank or pressure pot, is a sealed container that supplies paint or coating material to a spray gun under steady air pressure. Every Ranox pressure paint tank operates with compressed air supplied by an air compressor, helping maintain continuous and consistent material delivery during spraying.
Ranox pressure tanks are available without an agitator, with a manual agitator or with a pneumatic agitator. The appropriate agitation type depends on how much mixing the material requires during operation. Tank material and outlet configuration should be selected separately according to the coating and production process.

What Is a Paint Pressure Tank?
A paint pressure tank, also known as a pressure feed tank or pressure pot, is a sealed container that supplies paint or coating material to a spray gun under steady air pressure. Every Ranox pressure paint tank operates with compressed air supplied by an air compressor, helping maintain continuous and consistent material delivery during spraying.
Ranox pressure tanks are available without an agitator, with a manual agitator or with a pneumatic agitator. The appropriate agitation type depends on how much mixing the material requires during operation. Tank material and outlet configuration should be selected separately according to the coating and production process.
Choosing the Right Agitation Type
All three agitation configurations can handle a wide variety of coating materials. The main difference is how much mixing they provide during operation.
| Product Type | Agitation | Best Suited For |
| Economic Pressure Tank | None | Stable, premixed coatings and short production runs |
| Manual Pressure Tank | Manual stirrer | Materials that settle gradually and require occasional remixing |
| Air Agitating Pressure Tank | Pneumatic agitation | Materials that settle quickly and long, continuous production runs |
Ranox offers models from 2 to 120 liters, depending on the product and configuration. Available materials include carbon steel, SUS304 and SUS316 stainless steel.
Top-Outlet vs. Bottom-Outlet Pressure Tanks
In addition to agitation type, the outlet position affects how the material is discharged from the tank.
| Feed Design | Best Suited For |
| Top-Outlet, Standard | General spraying applications using standard coatings |
| Bottom-Outlet Pressure Tank | High-viscosity materials, more complete discharge and automated equipment |
A top-outlet tank is suitable for most general spraying applications. For high-viscosity materials or automated spraying systems, a bottom-outlet pressure tank is often recommended because it supports more reliable material discharge and easier connection to downstream equipment.
Why Use a Paint Pressure Tank for Spraying?
A paint pressure tank is useful when a spraying process requires greater material capacity, continuous delivery, stable output, material agitation or integration with automated equipment.
-
Consistent Material Supply
A pressure tank provides a continuous supply of paint or coating material to automatic spray guns and other application equipment. Stable material delivery helps reduce interruptions and output fluctuations during spraying.
-
Fewer Refill Interruptions
Compared with a small spray-gun cup, a pressure tank holds more material and reduces the need for frequent refilling. This helps minimize interruptions during longer spraying operations.
-
More Consistent Finish Quality
Stable material pressure helps the spray gun distribute the coating more evenly. This can reduce streaks, blotches and other finish inconsistencies related to unstable material delivery.
-
Improved Process Control
Operators can adjust the supply pressure according to the coating material, spray gun and application requirements. This helps maintain more consistent spraying conditions throughout the process.
-
Reduced Material Exposure
Because the material remains inside a sealed container, a pressure tank helps reduce exposure to ambient air, dust and other contaminants during operation.
Paint Pressure Tank Applications
Paint pressure tanks are used in industrial manufacturing, building decoration, woodworking, furniture production, tableware manufacturing and general product finishing.
Automotive and motorcycle manufacturing, shipbuilding and aircraft manufacturing and maintenance also use pressure tanks for stable material delivery and integration with automatic painting equipment.
Stainless steel models may also be suitable for cleanroom production processes that require corrosion resistance, easier cleaning and reduced exposure to environmental contaminants. Suitability depends on the material being handled, operating conditions, cleaning procedures and cleanliness requirements of the specific process.

FAQ
Q1. Does a paint pressure tank require an air compressor?
Yes. Ranox pressure tanks operate with compressed air. The working pressure is adjusted according to the material and spray-gun requirements.
Q2. Which agitation type should I choose?
Choose a non-agitating model for stable materials, a manual agitator for materials that require occasional remixing and a pneumatic agitator for materials that settle quickly or require continuous mixing.
Q3. When should I choose a bottom-outlet tank?
A bottom-outlet tank is generally recommended for high-viscosity materials, more complete discharge or connection with automated spraying equipment.
Q4. What tank capacity do I need?
Smaller tanks suit sampling, touch-up work and short runs. Larger models reduce refill frequency during continuous production. The appropriate size depends on material consumption and spraying duration.
Q5. Can the tank be connected to automatic spraying equipment?
Yes. Ranox pressure tanks can be integrated with automatic spraying lines and other coating systems. The required configuration depends on the material and equipment layout.
Q6. Which tank material should I choose?
Carbon steel is suitable for many general applications. SUS304 or SUS316 stainless steel may be selected when greater corrosion resistance, easier cleaning or higher cleanliness is required.
Q7. Can Ranox customize a pressure tank?
Yes. Ranox can customize the capacity, tank material, outlet position, agitation system and other specifications. OEM services are also available.
