Re: pressure regulator

What pras means to say is that you need one pressure regulator after the tanks that will regulate the air to <=60 psi. This wouldn't be the yellow tipped regulator(secondary regulator) but the completely black regulator (primary regulator). You do not have to use both regulator but must use the primary regulator between your high pressure (120 psi) and working pressure (60 psi, going through solenoids). You can use a secondary regulator to reduce the psi even farther if you want to but you don't have to use it.

You must however use the Nason Pressure Switch on the 120 psi side of your system. You wire it as a sensor to the RC and it will shut off the compressor at 115 psi and turn it back on at 90 psi. I don't know the specific specs for pins and programming but there is literature about it from FIRST or I am sure there are more people about who have a better idea about that.
