Did you save that old pump? You can still get a rebuild kit for it and its a 20 thousand hour pump vs the HF pump thats only 10 thousand at best. The directions for setting the switch pressure are inside the switch cap if you turn it over.

Couldn't wait to see that keyway go flying when the new motor was started!!!

Never had good luck only using teff tape.. always use the tape and dope both.. never get any leaks..

Vevor isn't bad at all, low cost and they have a wide diverse range. I bought lab supplies and glassware a few times. Stuff is good and durable, lots of cheap labware isn't so for $200 I got 4 boiling flasks, 4 condensers, a few Erlenmeyers, and a couple adapters all 24/40 borosilicate. I'd be paying at least double, to quadruple for decent or better quality most people run to. Vevor does good, I haven't done electrical stuff yet.

Nice job. That's some good work. I have a similar compressor and have been thinking for years about swapping the single phase motor over to three phase. I have a few spare VFDs laying around that would give me speed control of the compressor. I've always wondered if you'd still need an unloader valve with the zero RPM torque of a 3 phase motor.

Pressure switch has a screw adjustment against spring pressure. Looser the screw lower pressure

Take a part the old compressor and see why it falled or maybe you can fix it first.

Link for air pump?

That belt is to loose

Had to do a double take on the name.. saw nazy nate like right.. lol
