MEGA-160 is a pressurized water system component designed for high-rise buildings, fire systems, and demanding long-distance pressure support. With a 160-liter (44-gallon) capacity, it reliably maintains water pressure at a set, consistent level.
Built for high-stress environments, this tank supports a robust maximum operating pressure of 16 bar. It is factory-pre-charged with 100% nitrogen to ensure stable performance and prevent pressure fluctuations caused by temperature changes.
Measuring 55.0 cm in diameter and 92.7 cm in height, the tank includes a heavy-duty base for added stability. It is an ideal high-capacity solution for residential and commercial booster setups requiring exceptional high-pressure performance and flow rates.
Product Overview
The MEGA-160 is a 160-liter (44-gallon) high-performance diaphragm tank, engineered as the premier solution for mid-to-large scale water system stabilization. Utilizing a specialized FDA-grade polypropylene liner integrated with a premium butyl diaphragm, it ensures a dedicated "Safe Water Zone" by preventing any contact between the liquid and the tank's metallic shell.
Key technical advantages include a 100% Nitrogen pre-charge and a 16-bar (232 PSI) pressure rating, which significantly outperforms standard industry tanks. This configuration ensures more stable pressure cycles and minimizes pump "short-cycling," directly preventing motor burnout and extending equipment lifespan.
Constructed with a heavy-duty cold-rolled carbon steel shell and protected by a triple-grade epoxy powder finish, the MEGA-160 offers superior oxidation resistance. Equipped with a 1-1/4” Stainless Steel lead-free connector, this CE and ISO 9001 certified unit provides an energy-saving, maintenance-free solution for critical high-pressure applications.

Key Features & Design Advantages
How the MEGA-PLUS Pressure Tank Works
The MEGA-160 stores supplemental water between the liner and the heavy-duty butyl rubber diaphragm. When a faucet is opened or an appliance demands water, the compressed nitrogen air chamber pushes the stored water into the system. This allows the system to meet low-volume water demands without immediately triggering the pump motor. By creating this efficient supply cycle, the tank minimizes pump cycling, stabilizes water pressure, and conserves energy.

Typical Applications
Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)
The MEGA-160 provides a 25L per minute flow rate and, like all MEGA-PLUS tanks, is 100% made in Taiwan in an ISO9001-certified facility.
Standard compressed air contains oxygen, which causes internal oxidation (rusting) of the carbon steel shell over time. AQUASKY's 100% Nitrogen pre-charge completely removes oxygen from the air chamber, ensuring the tank remains entirely rust-free internally.
The MEGA-160 has a net weight of 30.7 kg (67.7 lbs) and requires a shipping volume of 10.04 CUF.
