Pressure vessels used in the workplace can pose significant risks if not properly maintained.
A poorly maintained air receiver can fail or even explode, leading to property damage, serious injury or, in the worst cases, fatalities. That is why it is essential to have your compressed air receivers correctly installed, serviced and inspected.
Every air receiver must comply with Australian Standards and WorkSafe WA regulations to ensure safety and reliability. Correct installation, regular inspections, and consistent maintenance are key to preventing failures and maintaining system performance.
At Nessco Pressure Systems, we provide professional receiver inspections and maintenance services for businesses across all industries. Our goal is to keep your compressed air systems compliant, efficient and safe.
Australian Standards and WorkSafe WA legislation are in place to ensure that all workplace plant and equipment are safe to operate. These regulations exist to protect both people and property. Two key standards apply specifically to air receivers.
This standard outlines the minimum requirements for inspecting pressure equipment in service and ensuring it remains fit for use. It covers repairs, modifications, alterations and re-rating of both new and used pressure equipment. The requirements apply throughout the entire life of the equipment, from commissioning to final disposal.
This standard categorises pressure vessels from Hazard Level A (most hazardous) through to Hazard Level E (least hazardous). The hazard level is calculated based on the possible consequences of equipment failure, taking into account pressure, temperature, volume, the type of fluid contained and how the equipment is used. The classification determines the level of control and inspection required under the Work Health and Safety (General) Regulations 2022 (WA).
If your air receiver falls into Hazard Level A, B or C, it must be registered and inspected at least every two years.
Most shop-fabricated air receivers are classed as Hazard Level B or C and therefore require ongoing inspection and compliance management. Smaller receivers, such as those with a pressure-volume (pV) value below 100 MPa·L, may be exempt from registration, but they still need to be installed and maintained safely.
Our experienced inspectors carry out thorough air receiver inspections in Perth in accordance with all relevant Australian Standards. We can help you determine whether your system requires registration and ensure that all inspections are properly documented and compliant with WorkSafe WA requirements.
During your receiver inspection, our technician will assess the condition and safety of the vessel. This includes reviewing design and registration documentation, checking pressure safety devices, examining the vessel for corrosion or damage, and verifying the accuracy of gauges and safety valves.
A test certificate and inspection report are then issued to confirm compliance with AS 3788:2024 – Pressure Equipment: In-Service Inspection.
Two-yearly receiver inspections help your business meet regulatory requirements and ensure your compressed air system continues to operate safely and efficiently.

"Very good install and thank you for all your efforts." (5-star review)
Nessco Pressure Systems has been great at ensuring our pressure vessels are inspected and registered correctly, so we comply with Worksafe WA requirements. Our previous compressor company did not provide this service and we had no idea that they were supposed to be registered and inspected.
