old Silver Seal air compressor

IAtractorKid · Jan 3, 2016

Hey guys! So I inherited an old Silver Seal air compressor...probably 15 gallon or so. Anyway I don't need it and was going to give it to my sister. However, they have bypassed the pressure switch and have the motor hard wired. I don't want to give it to my sister as-is,and would like to install a new pressure switch. However, I don't know what the tank is rated for and there is no tag on it that I can see. I'd hate to put a 135psi pressure switch on it if this old tank can't take that. What do you think? Would the tank more than likely hold that, or can I buy a lower psi pressure switch?

Thanks!

Iatractorkid,Yes you can get like 120lbs switch and it will have both a adjustable cut in and cut out pressure settings,also be sure it has a working pop off valve for safety.
