Re: Viair 90 series compressor

The problem I have now is that technically, neither the 90C or 92C compressors actually are in compliance with R66.

Quote:
<R66> In addition to the items included in the KOP, pneumatic system items specifically permitted on 2011 FRC ROBOTS include the following items. All included items must be “off the shelf” COTS pneumatic devices rated by their manufacturers for working pressure of at least 125psi and burst pressure of 250psi, and used in their original, unaltered condition (except as required for assembly with other components).
The working pressure of the compressors is 120psi and the only rating I found for the burst pressure was 200psi.
