I know it is overkill, but here it is:

Crap! I ordered that filter and just realized after looking at these photos I need a way to hook it up! What the heck was I thinking? Any suggestions on what the supply from the compressor to the filter should be plumbed with? SS tubing? Wheat type of fittings? Never done high pressure plumbing. I thought of just using the fill hose that came with the compressor, but I’m sure I’ll have to have an adapter.

Your filter will have a male QD on one end and a hose with a female QD on a hose on the other end. If you are using a Chinese compressor, the pump hose will fit the male QD on the filter. If your hose end doesn't fit your bottle, you will need to change one or the other to suit. There have been many threads on this forum discussing the differences between some of the Chinese stuff and Foster type QDs.

More overkill - I installed a moisture indicator after the PMV and then the hose. The indicator uses a disk to change color to indicate the amount of moisture in the air; the disk did not change at all. I installed the 20-40-60 indicator disk. I also have the 10-20-30 indicator and may install it on my next top off. Feeling pretty good about minimal moisture in the tank.
