One of my big concerns is breaching the air tank.
If you have a compressor for shop air, moisture collecting in the bottom of the tank can cause the tank to corrode from the inside, and when it blows at a low low 60-120 psi (max)....It goes quite a distance and thinks nothing of going through a couple of walls and bystanders or a roof.... OK, one of my buddies worked for Campbell Hausfeld and used to test the tanks in an armored room so I can't speak from personal experience. He has seen films of actual shop damage (litigation, roof holes, etc, ) and was aware of what a measly 120 PSI can do to make a compressor tank into rocket... I check my tank now... So imagine what a really highly compressed tank will do? Way more energy stored within that tank than a lower pressure air compressor tank. Ken |
