You didn't mention what the application is but 40/60 PSI is a good
working pressure for a home. You get good performance and the various
valves etc don't get destroyed nearly as quickly as they would at higher
pressures.

The only problem with that is plumbing fixtures are rated at 80 PSI.
Your "3 GPM" shower will just dribble when that tank is coming down to
40 to trip the switch.

Actually no.
