ok thanks. I wanted to understand the physics around "what happens to the water" through a compression cycle, and how to remove it - so that's why I posted here. I agree it's turned more into a best practices on compressor plumbing discussion.
Thanks for the feedback I appreciate the advice...
I understand the safety concerns, trust me I do know what I'm doing even though my water removal question sounds fairly pedestrian. The system is completely piped with 3/4 copper, soldered with 95/5 lead-free solder. There are downstream regulators and filters. The unit is 230V/1ph and is...
ok thanks. I really want to keep the water from getting into the main 80 gallon tank.
So, would it look like: pump head->long loop of copper pipe->separator->tank (?)
And is the separator something I can purchase - would you happen to have a recommendation on type/brand or any hint where to...
I have a fairly large (for household use) 7.5HP electric motor driven two-stage air compressor, which charges the receiving 80 gallon tank to a limit of 175PSI.
There is a short 3/4" diameter copper pipe that connects the pump to the tank. I have not measured, but guesstimate that the...
