I can run a sandblaster 100% of the time, and the compressor would be actually pumping maybe 75% of the time. When I sandblast, I run the motor 100% of the time, with unloaders kicking in when the tank is full. That avoids motor restarts. i |

3 gal pancake compressor upgrade
Maybe if I get a 500 gal expansion tank for my 3 gal
compresssor? 0.6 scfm should fill it, in a couple days, if the cylinder doesn't over heat. I'd like a 500 gal expansion tank. I'd fill it with a 220 volt air conditioning compressor, a scroll would be nice. Have to change out the lubricating oil, but that's OK. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org ..
