- The pressure tanks have a volume of 1,620 litres and are filled to 50 atmospheres.
- Regular canisters (not the high-volume air ones) have a volume of 1,000 litres and are filled to 45 atmospheres.
- The high-volume air canisters have a volume of 1,000 litres and are filled to 180 atmospheres (the volume of the actual canister is the same, it just has four times as much air stuffed in, so really should be called "high-pressure" rather than "high-volume")
So yep, the pressure tanks have a touch under twice as much as regular canisters. Definitely not actually infinite, and also not virtually infinite on long rounds on LLJK1 (especially when an engineer early in the shift has wasted all of your plasma/whatever and caused an engine explosion that you've had to fix and then need gases to refill).
