Re: Pre-charing pneumatic air tank

I think that some of the rules for the pneumatics are a little weird. All the "incidents" mentioned have not been due to over pressurization. The relief valve takes care of that.

I don't get why they think that the cRIO control is going to be a super safe solution. They're relying on programming and wiring done by inexperienced high school kids.

This question is for inspectors. Which of the following would be illegal?

-Connecting the compressor to a drill battery
-Connecting the compressor to a robot battery with breaker
-Programming the robot to run the compressor an additional 10 seconds after the pressure switch says its full to fill all the way to 125 psi because the pressure switch stops at 115 psi.
-Programming the robot in auto to run the compressor non stop and let excess pressure vent through the relief valve
-Having a button on the computer that runs the compressor when held, used to charge a system at 95 psi to 115 psi before a match starts
-Having a button on the computer that runs the compressor when held, used to charge the system until the relief valve starts releasing air

-shorting out the pressure switch to run compressor
