Hi Les
Good question.
It does have the pressure switch what I was told cuts the compressor off when not pumping up an tyre.
As for an air tank, it could be one and never checked it out, but if it is, there is no way you could use it for reserve air.
The "could" be tank is less than 10 cm long and around 25mm in diameter, so if you could 200 mil of air as a reservoir, that is not even going to pump up a push bike tyre......lol
I replaced it for a very old Blue Tounge pump that was slow, bulky to carry, compared to the ARB that is quick, and will re inflate 4 tyres from 18 psi to 34 in a few minutes, and the same thing me that it would take my old Blue Tounge to do just one tyre.
It is small, sits along side of my fuel filter and is out of the way of the elements of travelling, eg water and dust. Also it is the same compressor that ARB used to install to run their air lockers.
If you want to see a picture of it, let me know and I will take a picture for you.
Cheers
Stephen
