Air Tanks?

Air tanks are out of stock on AM. Are their any rules regarding other tanks?

I see in the manual:

The only pneumatic system items permitted on 2013 FRC ROBOTS include the items listed below.

Items available in the 2013 KOP,
Pneumatic pressure vent plug valves functionally equivalent to those provided in the KOP,

Parker valves PV609-2 or MV709-2 are recommended.



Solenoid valves with a maximum 1/8 in. NPT port diameter, and a maximum Cv of 0.32,
Solenoid valves that are rated for a maximum working pressure that is less than 125 psi rating mandated above are permitted, however if employed, an additional pressure relief valve must be added to the low pressure side of the main regulator. The additional relief valve must be set to a lower pressure than the maximum pressure rating for the solenoid valve,
Additional pneumatic tubing, with a maximum 0.160 in. inside diameter, functionally equivalent to that provided in the KOP,
Pressure transducers, pressure gauges, and connecting fittings,
Pressure regulators with a maximum bypass pressure of no more than 60 psi,
Pneumatic cylinders,
Pneumatic storage tanks, and
Compressors compliant with R80.


Could we use something like this: http://www.etrailer.com/Accessories-...one/F9125.html ?
