I some time ago, I reported that my CS3's pressure cut-off lead disconnected from the circuit board.
In this case, the cutoff function does not work and the compressor cannot shut off due to pressure.
Fortunately, the CS3 has an adjustable pressure relief valve that can be adjusted such that it will vent and thus limit pressure.
Does anyone else use this feature?
How do you address the potential for over-pressure from your compressor(s)?
Of course, the upper limit for CS3 pressure is the burst disk, but that blows at (?) 5.000 PSI which might be unsafe for some PCPs, but is still a feature. One could replace that with a lower burst pressure disk, were it not for the relief valve.
My CS1 clone, backup, demands that I monitor to some degree in case the pressure cut-off fails.
Another question: Has anyone knowledge of any PCPs that have failed due to overpressure? I admired my Kral Mega's burst disk.
