Hello HeXx

Found an test from the air of an 2 stage Tuxing compressor on youtube .
In the video you can see the pressure gauge during the sample is 40 bar (588 psi) .
Thats is my answer on youtube .

Tuxing TXEDM042 for Scuba?​

Air samples from Tuxing TXEDM042During the test the pressure was only only 40 bar . You can see the gauge .A two stage compressor can run up to 60 bar (588 psi) without burning to much lubriacant oil .But if you fill your tank up to 3000 psi the compressionratio of every stage must be about 14,3and the air in the zylindes become to hot . That's the reason for your bad air and not the fve hour runtime .Sorry but the air you send for the test must be taken at least while the compressor is running a few minutes at 3000 psi or highter pressure , otherwise it is worthless for a two stage compressor without a pressur maintaining valve like your Tuxing .

That's how I was intending to send it.
I have filled a scuba tank with 240 bar, now I'm going to send it for analysis even without filtration.
What worries me the most is CO.
By the way, for anyone needing a pmv, the hydraulic sequence valve works flawlessly and costs a fraction of the others on the marker.

Ok , that's fine .

Because the two stage compression don't work well , at least is not good for the air purity,
it is possibel to first run the compressor to a large storage tank (50 L tank) up to 60 bar.
During this the pressure after the first stage must be limited to 8 bar.
After that, only the second compressor stage can be fed from this tank down to a storage tank
pressure of 30 bar.
With a 50 L tank this is 1500 L air , so that you only have to do the process twice.
I know this is a lot of effort, but in this way you have a three-stage compression that never
exceed the pressure ratio of 8 per stage.
From what I have seen from you so far, you are able to build and operate such a plant.

Please post us where and which pmv you bought. Thank you .

Greetings Rainer
