Great video series on these compressors, mine arrives tomorrow and I've been watching these for preparation of its arrival

I am now running that same system of air oil separator and works flawlessly!

Here it's hydro tested every two years. That's why I'm looking at the ins and outs of a Yong Heng. What a toss up between the two fill systems! But to get away from the hand pump as I can. Thanks for your input.

I even bought the mini jufeng air dryer to run from my air venturi compressor and it is awesome.

Absolutely fantastic video! You are a great man for posting this very informative and thorough information!

Spot on about safety! Only problem is you have to periodically approach your system while filling to make sure you don't over pressurize your tank or exceed 4350psi of that compressor. I don't have automatic shut-off and wouldn't rely on it anyway. I seen on Amazon where a customer said a similar version filter canister split on him while filling. SCARY indeed! Excellent job as always! You are a tremendous asset to PCP airgunning.

The oil is bypass from the piston rings. Perfectly normal hence the reason for the filter. Great vid and great advice for the safe use of these air bombs

Fantastic video, lot of good information. Thanks for taking time and posting.!

Your videos have been extremely helpful! I just received my compressor yesterday. I filed it with oil today. I wanted to go through some videos just to familiarize myself with it. Thanks for all your great content!

After filling your tank, just store it overnight air valve down in a cool place so any water can condensate and accumulatie near the valve. The next day just blow out some air and any water buildup will be blown out to. Never had any corrosion in any of mine scuba tanks. No need to overengineer simple things. Just use the small filter to keep oil crud out.

Hello Air. Update on the new relay. Perfect fix.They did send the relay with all the wire attached. Makes it very simple to change. Would have been hard to figure out otherwise, They did switch and double up a couple wires. They send you one extra crimp end. I was a little unsure so I emailed and double checked with them. You will see the brown wire that burnt. You will cut that brown wire put the crimp end on there. The brown wire will now connect to a double green wire on the relay. ( Very obvious ) . I did take several pix before I did it. I will say this new relay looks ALOT better built. Hope this helps everyone. P.S. They did replace it for free. Tried to get me to pay for shipping but I was not going for any part of that after just giving them 350 and can not use my new compressor. lol they did send it for free. Thanks again for all the help Air. You were a big part of getting my wife and i to this point with tank and everything. I do have the same water and oil separator now also.

@air velocity sport - First off, thanks for the videos. Love your videos. I bought a YH compressor and haven't filled my tank yet only my pcp.****QUESTION**** So to make sure I don't break a burst disk again..... Let me list out the process and can you please confirm, I've got it down? FYI, I bought the parts to the fill assembly exactly as you have yours with the added bleed valve on the SCBA tank side. So here's what I think I understood for the Process to fill my SCBA tank from the YH: 1> Turn on YH w/ YH bleed valves open. 2> Let it equalize to tanks residual or current pressure. 3> Now open the tank. 4> Let it fill and bleed water every five mins on the YH. 5> Auto shut off shuts down YH.. 6> Close my tank. 7>Release air from bleed valves and water on YH. 8> After Air bled from the system, safe to disconnect. Please let me know if I got it or I miss anything. Trying to not get a burst disk! =)

Thanks for the info...

Thanks, and Respect.

I have found your videos on the compressor and the separator you did a very informative and well explained, what person did you buy the compressor from or the link to their site, also where did you buy the pressure release valve at .

Dude! Thanks.

The power relay picture is from my my own compressor. They used the pic I sent them when searching for a spare one for mine . It hasn’t failed , but smells like it’s ready to. Hopefully they send you the correct part , I’ve ordered it also . The 1st I was sent was totally the wrong part . Was great to see that you’ve done your set up exactly like mine .

Thanks dude

Thanks so much for sharing. I have just started the same journey as you but with an Aceeagle pump which is a clone of the Yong Heng...or vice versa..who knows in China right!? . I've only used mine once to top off my 4.5l tank from 160bar to a hair under 300bar. Almost the same as you i only saw a little bit of oil in the first stage and the main, bigger filter did feel dry. Hardly scientific...but also paranoid about moisture so I bought a second stage filter but it was only a small one, the same size as the inline one you get with the pump. It's been gnawing away at me so not content with that, I have bought exactly the same gold filter you are showing, also from Alibaba.I got it before I saw your vid...so....what can I say...great minds think alike! Been thinking about how to hack it to get some reusable silica packs in there and the pvc pipe with the o rings is a brilliant idea. Thanks for posting once again! Greetings from the UK!

One more thing to consider. I think the filter should be mounted vertically. The input should be at the bottom, the output at the top. I found some 400 mesh stainless steel screen on amazon that could be used to hold in the media. 400 mesh is finer than most common bed sheets. Also there should be a check valve and a bleed valve at the bottom, to open up at the end of the run to blow out the accumulated moisture and oil (depending on how much comes out, you might want to do it every so often).I am going to use the screen at the bottom, so that it blows out good without losing any media. I'll let you know how it works. All I have right now is a 90 cu. in. bottle, but I plan to get one much larger, like 12 liter. When I do, I might add another filter in series with the other one, with it's own check and bleed valves at the input, to make sure I get most of the moisture out.With a bleed and check valve at the input of each filter, I can bleed them seperately, to see how much comes out of each filter. I know this must seem like going overboard trying to eliminate as much moisture as I reasonably can. But like you said, the dryer the better, for the long haul. I'll try to document the process. I've ordered everything so I should be able to try it in a couple of weeks. You wondered what the other bleed valve on the compressor was for. It's the moisture/oil bleed valve. It should be opened every so often to blow out the accumulated moisture/oil. I think you are supposed to open both of these before shutting off the compressor. Harry

Excellent video ! can you let me know what kind of molecular sieve you use ( 3A, 4A, 5A, 10X, 13X ... ) ? Also what is the bead size ? I have seen bead sizes from 0.4mm to 6mm being sold.

Thank you, Did you fill the barometer with anything? I watched this video and bought one, barometer keeps swinging quite alot and i believe thats why it fails to stop at what you set

Is there instructions for installing the relay to upgrade the compressor to set pressure autostop? I have the new relay version but couldn't find any insight on installing it.

Did you ever add a high pressure valve to the top of the cylinder to bring it up to high pressure per joe b ?

very good vidio

if you scare that much you can use cement and build like a case around it and let some holes to turn it on or off

Is there anything to stop the moist air passing around the outside of the tampons in the larger filter, thus bypassing the filtration?

It’s possible with some experimentations that Cat Litter will remove moisture and odours if tightly packed between the fibre filters.

Where did you get the T fitting and the bleed valve that is attached to the carbon fiber tank?

We are still waiting for the answer to where you got the bleed valve. The right type are not easily found. Is it 1/8 NPT-M10 -BSPP etc. .Keep up the good work we all appreciate your vids.

In industrial applications you dry air before compression. I’m making a pre dryer now using 3a molecular sieve and will post when I’ve proven the design. It’s a no pressure set up so inexpensive by comparison to this arrangement, though I have to say this is better than cotton! Molecular sieves are easy to monitor and recycle and cheap too.

Thanks a million for this vid. I have a similar compressor and on your recommendation got the same water separator. Instead of white PVC, I used 30mm clear acrylic tube and colour changing silica gel as the desiccant. This way I can remove the desiccant canister and inspect it (goes from orange to dark green when it needs changing).

You can reverse it by putting it in your oven at 60C until it goes back to orange.

Hi i have a small silver oil/water separator with the small cotton thingy inside and also ,i had bought the cheap black oil/water filter and it came with black charcoal on one side and i am always getting water inside my rifles. Should I use both like You did in the beginning of this video? also what exactly can get ruined inside the rifle besides the Aluminum parts like in the Armada or Hercules Someone told me to remove the charcoal.from the filter , Should i?

The compressor I purchased has the auto shutoff. I simply set the shutoff level at max, over 5000 psi on the gauge, then do a safe manual shutdown when my gun/tank reaches a pressure well below that. A question though, how about putting the desiccant on the low pressure input side, you could make the entire tube out of PVC and avoid it having to maintain high pressures? Or would it suffocate the low pressure input?

Could you use a pocket of silica to remove moisture in the middle?

When I received mine I had to open it up. help get the motor started. yes oil is in it. this machine has it problems ,but it's do able more me cause I work on motors a bit.

Thank you for the great information. What do you think: is there any way to pre-filter the air before it goes into the pump? Is there any type of filter setup that you have heard of that could be used as a pre-filtering setup? Much appreciated.

Hey Chris congratulations you will love the yong hang just don't overwork it keep it cool and definitely use a water separator. I want you to know that I am making a new video because I am using a new type of oil called Seco lube 500 from filtertech.com which runs a lot cleaner and does not smell. I also have a new water separator that does a better job and is readily available on Amazon or ebay.. the new water separator does not have any media inside of it rather it collects water and drops it at the bottom and is completely empty inside except for a stainless steel condenser that collects moisture and drops it at the bottom of the tube which can be bled off periodically.

Hello. a question: at how many psi, should we load the cylinders of air, in order not to suffer danger? (a maximum limit) Thank you.

Now that you've had the compressor for a year how is it holding up? What problems have you encountered with this compressor?

Where can replacement cotton filters (the original one) be located?

With these compressors you should always put your tank above the compressor as high as possible that way the water trickles down back toward the pump rather than into your filter and tank.

Can these filters be used on a hand pump? Do you think it would make it harder to pump? Or do you have a better solution for hand pumps? Thanks

Contact the manufacturing and they will send it for free just like my large air filter with no fuss. Awesome people to work with.

I'm going to use activated alumina without the pvc pipe since its noncorrosive. This will allow much more beads to fit. Got great deal on EBay..18.95 for 5.5#. Should last forever.

I am going to do this hack but by putting in that pvc pipe, wouldn't the air just revert that route and some through the molecular sieves? How about just putting the molecular sieves in and putting the tampons on the ends?

Should I get a bulletin proof vest?

I am in Cornwall UK. Some good tips there on HP safety.... however, I used to test these cylinders and as long as no water gets in they are good, oil is breathing air safe (or should be) so should not cause fire. Those compressors are fine in UK!...... I tried to burst a 3 liter Faber bottle on purpose...got to 590 Bar with water and I couldn't do it!!,.I have seen these cylinders dropped down sea wall steps and they been fine unless the valves catches then it can be like a unguided missile. The Oil you put in it should ONLY be Breath air comparable, Anderol 555 (is best) or Bauer N28355-5, change oil as often as you can afford ! Normal hydraulic oil will start a fire easy.... the oil and water filter you have shown is doing its job as all compressors will pass some oil. Always start compressor with all bleeds open and also when shutting down.....Go to a Scuba centre and ask how they run theirs!!! DO NOT PUT ANY OTHER OIL IN OTHER THAN COMPRESSOR OIL IN IT THAT IS SUITABLE FOR BREATHING AIR!!! GOOD Video though!!

yes when compressor gets up to required pressure and shuts off (or you shut it off): First shut the valve on the bottle Then bleed the systems pressure out through the bottle bleeder This releases all the pressure the same direction as it is pumped, by bleeding the system at the compressor end as you recommend is wrong, doing it this way is pushing all of pressure left in the filter (moisture ect) back into the compressor. Always release the pressure at the bottle bleeder if available. I guess when filling a rifle directly, you can only release pressure at the compressor end though. Hope this helps.. ps I have a Omega Supercharger with a diablo dry air system filter..

I read that someone was also using rice and says it works. Pretty crazy stuff but if those filters come out dry are you still worried about moisture?

Almost three years after you posted this video. The compressor would not be as popular if it would blow up all the time or hurt people. I just filled a 10 Liter 300 bar bottle to 200 bar in two runs and will continue tomorrow.I don't have the room to set up a protective wall but I position the compressor so that it can throw parts away from me, if something goes wrong. I am using the unbranded version .... again. They have been selling this for years and it works if you handle it with respect and follow the manual. I am more concerned about that 10 liter bottle once it is filled to 300 bar. Now that is a bomb but those steel bottles stand around construction sites in full sun light all day long .....

HI, so I have this same compressor, and I Just purchased the GOLD Tuxing (3) stage filter..first it is the cotten, then carbon, the silica, then dissicant. My only problem is WHICH end of the Tuxing filter connects to the compressor and which end goes out to the air gun/air tank? Which stage should come first in the tube? I am assuming the cotton should be the first in line.

@AirVelocitySport

I believe the cotton side comes first and the charcoal side is last. The cotton will catch the dirt and large particals. The desicant is next and charcoal to clean the smell.

My pvc pipe doesn't fit snuggly into the filter, it's too loose, about 1-1.5 mm loose, so to prevent the air channeling, what if i put the molecular sieves into a sock and a rubber tube (maybe a long balloon cut on both ends?) add the shorter tampons on both ends... will it protect the filter from the acid build up? any suggestions?

Back in the day when I was scuba diving frequently, there scuba shops when filling the tanks would fill the tanks partially submerged in water in cement walled vats.I expected this to be used to control the temperature of the steel tanks while filling. This was only partially true. As cooling was beneficial, it was also a protection if the tanks were to rupture. Having the tanks partially submerged at the time of filling and failure,, the force would be absorbed partially by the weight of the water and the barrier of the cement walled vat. I saw photos of such failures. So at the time, this was the method of precaution that industry was encouraged to do. Looking back on this method and thinking on the lines that forces must be applied by a medium. For example an explosion in air which does not eject debris only the force. A great amount of that force is diluted from the compressibility of the atmosphere. Take that same explosion under water and within the same distance, the damage is more devastating. This is because the water is not compressed and the forces are not diluted. Would the water and cement in the containment vat become a media to transport the energy of the exploding tank? SoI don’t know. if the volume is low and the bottles are secured so they don’t go flying around the room, is there a significant danger?

Here's a way to put together a one-way check valve so that you don't have to worry about which valve to shut first. The check valve only allows air to flow in one direction. This configuration will end up as a male-male in-line check valve. You can use it between the compressor and the tank, or anywhere you want air to only flow in ONE direction. It's clear that you need to open the two bleed valves on the compresson BEFORE you shut off the compressor, to lengthen it's life. With the check valve in line, you can do that WITHOUT losing any air in the tank. Here are the parts: airtanksplus.com/product/deluxe-ss-male-foster-fitting-with-male-18-npt-and-removable-check-valve/ airtanksplus.com/product/male-foster-fitting-with-female-14-npt-threads/ Might need an O-ring for the junction of the two parts.

Great video. Safety is always first Hiding behind fridge is called you value your life and i would do the same. I have seen what just 300psi can do to a human. Guy at work came up with this brite idea on 3rd shift to use pvc as a secondary tank with glued caps. We had no clue to what he did when we came in on 1st shift. until we turned the compressors on to p-restart up the machines, well his brain storm exploded hitting women employee in shoulder she was very lucky it could have been fatal. It was very bad. So long story short this is high pressure that is 100% worse . Any of these units i would not trust and would advise taking all safety steps to less the chance of a problem.

The volume in the hose and compressor is not a worry. Just the tank could be the only thing that is dangerous.

Yes, they are CE(liable(liability) if something goes wrong). Just don't buy clones, trust me on this. Big lesson learned. Best thing to do is to get a one way valve foster male connector, so that you can simplify the shoot-off procedure.

CE does not provide a guarantee for anything. All companies producing anything must provide a CE implying Certified European standard merely to sell their products in the EU region. It is NOT a guarantee or warranty of any kind and one could in fact "self certify" as well. Much like ISO 9000 quality assurance saying "-I followed all rules but you have no way of checking I am truthful".

I put a one way foster in between. No air lost.

How much do you get these pump for I'm looking at eBay but not sure there the real thing

Where did you but this it and what is the price for it??

Good work once again desicant is expensive if the gold tube stays cool there isn't much moisture in the air it'll put heat in that tilt the gold tube tword the inlet if water is in there it'll settle to the bottom is there a difference on a high vs low humidity day? and thanks for the heads up on the relay the more people that buy those the cheaper the replacement parts will be and ya competition is for the benefit of all knowing the when to replace what or for the lack of a better expression a maintnence schedule, thanks for the pointers

Can i use this cng filling

Dear Sir, Is molecular sieve what we normally refer to as desiccant??? Desiccant has the unique feature of being reusable when spread over a plate left in a warm oven in order to dry out the moisture soaked in during use. Vey interesting & well explained video. keep up the good work. Kind regards.

ToolsConsumables not sure exactly but molecular sieve is supposed to be the best for high pressure

Dear Sir, Many thanks for your courteous reply. desiccant is usually found in electronic equipment ( cameras, mobile phones, computers, other delicate components ) that must be kept absolutely moisture free. It's normally in little bags that look like corse salt grains (in a pillow shaped transparent bag). One can purchase large quantities as well as tiny amounts online. Kind regards.

ToolsConsumables My work was in a oil refinery the last 37 years. Our unit controls used air. It had to be dry. We used desiccant in big twin tanks . One was heating up and removing moisture while the other in service. They switched every 2 hrs. We used large amounts of air. So yes desiccant will work . The desiccant we use is around half the size off a BB.

Dear Sir, Many thanks for your courteous response. I wasn't too sure if what Americans call molecular sieve was the same stuff as I 've never heard it in the UK. But many thanks for your comment. Kind regards.

Hello, my only concern about that is if the water filter that you build has the strenth to support this level of pression. Maybe would explote?

Francisco Cabrera it rated to 4500 psi working pressure.

I bought a compressor a coupe of weeks ago, and now I just bought this filter. Buying from china is a bit freaky, the compressor was in Cali, not so freaky. Is there a foster fitting for the hose end, or just buy a male to male foster fitting??

Showed up today, nice little filter, looks like I won't be going to AOA any time soon, I have my filter hooked directly to the lil filter on the compressor unit, eliminating the hose that came with the filter.

What compressor do you have 240v or 110v. Does 110v have auto/shut off?

I think you should choose the most expensive one they call it SET PRESSURE type, the AUTO SHUT OFF type is just the name for the fail safe burst disks system. cmiiw
