Small pneumatic reservoir required...
(OP)
Hi chaps (and chapesses!),
I am looking to buy some small pneumatic reservoirs, rated to at least 7 bar (100PSI).
The smallest I can find is 100ml (6.1 cubic inches), from Norgren, however I require a reservoir approximately 1/3rd the volume of that - 30cc (1.8 - 2.0 cubic inches).
Can anybody help with / advise where to go for this as it will be easier to buy stock parts than design one to build on to our system.
I require 250 units per annum
Cheers guys,
Jon

Sample cylinders go down to 50 CC, since they are usually higher pressure and SS they are quite expensive.

Since you didn't post your connection requirements I don't know if the use of a closed end tube might work.
I made somewhat larger sampling cylinders using a closed end tube with a tubing connection, The only expendable item was the wedge ring on the fitting.
You might look at the capabilities of these two companies and approach it from using the appropriate length of tubing.

Would require at least one, but preferably two, threaded ends G1/8" or G1/4". The ideal would be a similar diameter to that shown above, but ~1/3 of the length.
To use a sealed pipe from scratch would require passing of pressure directives etc...!! Not worth it for the quantities! Would prefer an existing pressure vessel - even a small (~45g) CO2 cylinder as used in self-inflating bicycle pumps
