I started up my new Yong Heng compressor and let it run for about 10 minutes under no load conditions. I have added a 800GPH pond pump and the water flow is well brisk compared to the stock pump, so I think I am good here. My initial run was for approx. 15 minutes and the compressor seemed fine. The pressure only got to about 1K PSI for this initial run. I started it again after about a 4 hour cooling off period, with water pump still running while compressor was off.
2nd time again for approx. 15 minutes I got up to approx. 1.5K PSI. Seemed like it should have filled more than this, but all seems to be running OK. 3rd start and again for approx. 15 minutes I am only upto about 2.2-2.3K PSI. Does this seem normal from a dead empty tank after approx. 45 minutes? I have never filled a big tank before so I have zero point of reference.
