Hi John, I decided to by pass the chemical dryer chamber and this has made a big impovement, it took ~14 mins to fill the last 1,000 PSI air pressure in the tank so very happy now :-))))) The filter in the chamber was halfway through its life as you can see in the photos when that strip goes to a tan clour it's finish and will take longer to fill a scuba tank and i don't think i need to dry the air as i wont be breahing the air. secound vid youtu.be/SSefoD_NJ-k Cheers, Mark..    Good job Mark! I have a scuba compressor that takes almost forever to fill a scuba tank with, perhaps I should try to bypass the dryer just to see if fill time improves. Or is it a bad idea with steel tanks? I am thinking about rust forming on the inside... /Anders |

Hi Anders, Thanks mate,yeah i have a 18 liter steel tank as well but have seen a alloy tank cut in half and the wall thicknesses is ~16mm so maybe the steel ones are the same wall thicknesses and would take many years before they crack?  ?. And opening the consaion drain valve at 5 min intervals may help eliminate the amount of water in the tank??? It would be worth a try on your compressor and see what happens if that improves the fill up time maybe change the filter? Cheers, Mark.. |

Hi Chris, Your right there mate when i got a compressed air bottle for testing the JFS it cost me $100 for a bottle plus rent and maintenance fees WTF! this is from industrial gas supplies who think they are GOD. The compressor looks well built, i was told these were made back in the 60s. There are some on ebay at the moment 251402129756 161186023267 230736060137 LOL i don't know what the burst pressure for a scuba tank is? Cheers, Mark.. |

Hello all. I am looking for a Cornelius 3000PSI drier housing exactly like the one shown in the post namely 3370300-1.
If the complete housing is not available i need the screw off top to install a new filter.
It must include the Teflon ring seal that is under the 226 O'ring.
Shipping would be to the USA.
Thanks!
