I don't know if there's any legal requirement to inspect & test DIY
compressors, like an MOT test.
It's a code of practice and the inspection carried out by the
Companys
Insurer.
Yes. I know.
So, if it's a compressor for DIY use, there is no company and no
company's insurer.
Anyone know of any relevant legislation?
I have just done a google search and found this government document, but
it
doesn't seem to mention anything to do with DIY use, unless I've missed
something.

If its used for work there is an insurance inspection, bi-annually iirc.
Usual set up is compressor - drier - reciever, with auto drain into
oil/water seperator and at the business end FRL (filter, regulator,
lubricator)
