Water cooled Tuxing from AliExpress.  It tops up my 10L cylinder from 180 to 320 bar in around 20 mins with auto switch-off and auto (variable) purge.

They are quite a technical bit of kit.
Why did you add the moisture trap? Does it catch any moisture or do the original do the job and that is just precautionary

Mine has a condenser tube and an oil/water separator trap.  I added another moisture trap on the intake, you can see it strapped to the frame with nylon ties.

So I'm curious as to the weather the compressed have water filters on them.
I'm assuming they do as moisture would rust a steel tank from the inside, it would also cause a build up of water in tank over time.
But then again with the vast array of compressors available is this something to look out for on a cheap compressor?

Picked up this Tuxing from Cash converters of all places - I somehow missed that Pauly5 said they had one there (air bow).

It hasn't been used from what I can tell.


I'll play with this one to see if I still need the Altaros or not as I'm not a fan of these water cooled units.
