Just curious if anyone can chime in that has experience with these ? I am considering one as I see there are a ton of parts available for them on eBay so it would seem they are quite repairable.
Do you have a model with the double metal tower water separator thingy (LOL…sorry I don’t know what it is actually called) or just the standard filter. I am wondering if the double tube type filter alone is adequate. Edit : this being the one I am talking aboutI enjoy mine. I fill a smaller SCBA tank. I got the one with the auto shut off, but I still stand over it until its done so it doesn't vibrate across the room.
I do recommend lots of moisture control. A full size cotton filter at least, if not a desiccant filter. Your environment may vary.
Wow that is pretty good and it probably could be rebuilt for sure. I was surprised at the part availability. I had written them off because I figured you couldn’t get parts. Thanks for the inputI had about 6-8 months experience with a Tuxing T032 that was gifted to me. While it worked it was fabulous & faster than I'd expected. It was 7 years old at that time & gave its previous owner(s) great service. I just happened to get it at the end of it's life span I guess.
I'm almost at 2 years on my 032, still sounds good, , only had one issue from the getgo with the electronics, they sent a new one and after that it's been perfect.
yes and yes. I do run a Molecular sieve just out of paranoia after the first two, I bleed the first one every 5 minutes. I'm in a moderate low humidity area but recently we've been 45-55% humidity. My only gripe is they definitely don't want you taking those filters apart, it's a common issue from my experience. After 2 years I've yet to see any sign of moisture getting through. I run Seco Lube for oil, it doesn't take much to fill it so be careful, go slow, a gallon will last longer than the compressor most likely. I use it about 3x month to refill my 70cf tank and occasionally my guns before I head out.Are the two gold tube filters on this model adequate by themselves or do you run additional filtration?
