At this size, you are looking at industrial-duty compressed air storage — the kind of tank that stabilizes pressure in high-demand shop environments, buffers short peak demand spikes without the compressor cycling, and reduces compressor run time by storing air between demand events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 240-gallon receiver at 200 PSI is not an entry-level purchase. This is the equipment choice when your compressor cannot keep up with peak demand even though average demand is within its capacity, or when you need a central storage tank for a large shop air distribution system. At $3,415.95, this is infrastructure — buy it right and it lasts decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTank Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240H200\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240 gallons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure (MAWP):\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 PSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast Air (Castair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice:\u003c\/strong\u003e $3,415.95\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat a Large Receiver Tank Does for Your System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShops that run multiple air tools simultaneously, or that have short bursts of very high air demand, benefit from receiver tank storage beyond what the compressor itself can immediately produce.
