Re: Thomas Compressor?

Remember that R68 limits the CFM from any compressor used. May need to take a look at you design to require less air.

Quote:
R68 Compressed air on the ROBOT must be provided by one and only one compressor. Compressor specifications may not
exceed nominal 12VDC, 1.05 cfm flow rate.
EDIT:

Looking at the specs from both compressors, the new Vaiar compressor actually has a .08cfm higher flow rate.
