Does anyone know what the threads are on the little black water separator that comes with the Yong Heng compressor?
Im guessing 1/8 npt but not for sure.

Okay I think you are thinking that this is going straight out of a airgun like a automotive impact or something. This is going into a holding tank. This uses high pressure. Water will fall out of the air like crazy under pressure. Not so easy under low pressure conditions. The air going through these air separator devices is under high pressure, but not really high volume. And we are not shooting the gun out of the compressor, but out of the bottle after the pressure is reached.i see a problem with water separator techniques being used by most people. the aluminum tube stuffed with filters and placed between pump and object to be filled is ridiculous. i got one of those and immediately saw that it was a lousy decision. the amount of restriction to air flowing through these filters is asinine. you loose so much going through these filters. best to have an air dryer/filtering before the inlet that is sufficiently large to allow sufficient air flow and also maybe utilize a blower to assist in pushing dry air into the inlet. that is the better design. i am new to this pumping air de-watering problem, and it's a flawed system.
