Hi everybody! I was wondering if this compressor/pressure regulator can reliably put out lower PSI's like 10-15 PSI? Most reviews mention 20+ PSI.

It works well for me,the extra air tank keeps it at the low air pressure pretty reliable but I just got in to air brushing in the last 2 years so I am no expert by any means hope this helps you make a knowledge decision.

I believe its 120 psi. There are also some excellent videos on this product on You Tube. One is all about this compressor. I think you might get all of your questions answered from it.

My compressor has an identical output and it works. You do have to wait for pressure to build up between uses. I was removing ceramic tile and the tile cement from a bathroom floor so I would take up some tiles and cement, clean that up while the pressure built back up and then do some more. It will not work continuously because the compressor can't keep up but you can do a significant amount.

that compressor is fine the nail gun operates at 120 max. I was running the gun around 100 to 110 psi No Problems.

Dear friend, I believe it is a compressor 3 to 6 AMPS, This is a cut in pressure switch operating On when pressure drops below 90 psi to 100 psi it cuts in and over 120- it cuts offif it is in the above range and single phase you can use on your present compressoe _

My compressor is a 5hp 80 gallon putting out 155psi and this regulator has handled that with no problems.I could not find out the max input before I bought mine either, and had to put the pressure to it and see what happened.It has been almost a year since I started using mine and I have regulated as low as 9lbs for powder coat.The gauge goes to 160.It's a pretty big well built unit that will take you by surprise when you take it out of the box.

I have a grip rite 152 that I set at 95 psi, the compressor is 2.6 cfm at 90 psi and kept up with the gun with no problems. if you need a compressor the grip rite 152 is a great compressor, rated best by fine homebuilding . I used this set up for all my 3/4" hardwood with no problems and no waiting for the compressor

depends on the balancer and how tight it is. I'd run the compressor at what ever tank pressure will consistently read 90psi with the tool running, probably 100 psi or more. I wouldn't go lower than 4.5-5 CFM, but it'll want more like 10-15 cfm under full load. Compressor ratings are for constant usage, your usage is momentary for an impact wrench. I have a 33gal compressor that'll do about 4.9 cfm and that's adequate. Next compressor is going to be a 60-80 gal though, but not specifically for this tool.

The gauge reads 300psi, but it only gives me about 120 psig i think, its maybe more like 110 psig, anymore the regulator starts to leak off the extra pressure. This sucks....

I believe you could safely use the 20 amp rated sq D pressure switches, I am currently using one on 2 different compressors 1 is a 30 amp 240 vac 20 cfm unit the other is a 25 amp 240 vac 14 cfm unit. I think the worst that would happen you will burn the points out sooner (the origonials went 20 years and 11 years respectively).

Seems to me that the air locking differential systems work on slightly lower air pressures. This regulator works very well in the range of say 80PSI to 140PSI from my experience. Not sure it would do well with a 30 or 40PSI range. I would think that a regulator that has a slightly lower regulated range would work better. This is just my personal opinion. Hope this helps.

I know what it is rated as but I only take it to 90 PSI. I use it for little jobs when I don't want to hall my 100 ft of compressor hose with quick connects. Also got rid of their hose and bought a short compressor hose with correct fittings for connection to tank and a quick connect to connect my other air tools. This unit like the rest has only a tire filling fitting. With those changes it does the job. I think the company would be smart giving a better hose choice for a few pennies more. Good Luck!

It should work fine for that. And while you could set the regulator down to the pressure you want in your tire, you would better off leaving the regulator at full pressure and using a manual triggered tire inflater (with pressure gauge) at the end of your air hose. Tire inflaters like this often have built-in air bleeder buttons too, allowing you to instantly release excess pressure if you pump in too much.

I run mine @ 90 PSI. I use a Porter Cable pancake at home and a Senco PC1010 on the jobsite. The gun works great with either compressor.

this switch has a cut in of 135 and cut out of 175. 85/125 sure seems low for a 7.5hp compressor. If you need lower pressure purchase a regulator and regulate pressure down.

Sorry, Michelle;The spec sheet that came with my regulator was for a different model.I can tell you it keeps up with most painting (hvlp) and sandblasting chores.You'd need an Industrial-size compressor to outwork this regulator.

Working PSI is 90 i think. however, to achieve a working PSI of 90, the regulator will have to be set higher. If you set the regulator at 90 and hit the trigger, you'll notice the psi gauge will go down to 70-80 psi. So set at 100ish and adjust your gauge to keep the psi at 90. The PSI at most auto shops is in the 125 neighborhood
