Storage Question:

I already look at the manual and I can't find anything that would make this illegal. I was hoping someone from the community shed some light.
We have been kicking around an idea of making a left and a right storage tank. Then having a valve control which tank to fill to 125psi. Would that be legal?

Re: Storage Question:

I'm not sure if it would be legal or not but i assume they may have a problem with it if that valve is cutting off airflow to the vent and emergency relief valve.

What is the purpose of doing this?

Re: Storage Question:

No, this setup would be illegal per R82:

Quote:
R82

Only the compressor, relief valve (P/N: 16-004-011), pressure switch, pressure vent plug valve, pressure gauge, storage tanks, tubing, and connecting fittings may be in the high-pressure pneumatic circuit upstream from the regulator.
Also, just as note, per R81, your high pressure system is limited to 120 psi, not 125.
