Re: Question for onborad compressor teams
We used the small Viair as an onboard compressor off the PCM for the entire season and never ran into a problem with it once. We had a huge amount of air storage this year because your lift was completely pneumatic (2 18" throw 1.5" d pistons) so we used the compressor a lot beyond its recommended specs. Since it takes us about 3-5 minutes to charge between matches, we often ran it longer than recommended. We even ran it almost continuously for over half an hour between matches and pre-charging and never once ran into a problem.
