This is not the case...if using an off-board compressor AND you're storing high-pressure air, you need an additional relief valve.

The relief valve must be attached directly to the compressor or attached by legal fittings connected to the compressor output port. If using an off-board compressor, an additional relief valve must be included in the high pressure side of the pneumatic circuit on the ROBOT.
Do make sure you follow stinglikeabee's advice about the T-fitting if you're using a new compressor. You can't have any tubing between the compressor & the attached relief valve; this was a common problem in Hub City that caused 8 or 10 teams to re-work their pneumatics before getting their inspection sticker.
