Any air receiver at a workplace must be inspected as stated in the Occupational Safety and Health Act making it a legislative requirement. The inspections are required to be performed by In-service Inspectors of pressure equipment, such as our certified inspectors. The frequencies for these inspections are normally two yearly as per AS3788 Table 4.1.  The reason for this all inclusive requirement is because the definition of Pressure Equipment requiring inspection, being any pressure vessel with a hazard level of A,B,C,D as per AS4343.  This requirement essentially captures all air receivers in the workplace, regardless if they require individual item registration.
