Anyone?

Hey guys. I chimed in on a post a while about about changing over to some new bulbs. So i would like to ask the question a little differently since i was told that i put to much info out for people to decipher. I am looking to change up the lighting to get rid of shadows and if i can cut...

Thanks this is also what Charles was talking about but 15 psi I think would be a last resort. I think with the valve all the way open on my tank it will build and keep more than 15 psi but I would have to see.

Being in Arkansas we may work from early in morning until 7-8 at night and never turn the shop lights on.

Ok so apparently i am looking for this wrong. All i can seam to find is NC switches? Can you shoot me a link of one so i can see why it is i cannot come up with any?

Been looking around now and yes i am seeing the price of it since it is the opposite of the pressure switch that is on it now.

Right but i also want to take myself out of the error equation. So i think dual pressure switches would be the best solution. This also keeps me from having to run wiring back and forth for sensors.

Everything we have is on off all on the breaker panel since it is located openly in the shop. We ahve 2 motion lights on each side that come on when you come in.

Very interesting Charles. Ill do some testing tomorow with a open main air line and a simple air hose to see how long it will run before it falls below the lower set point to see how well the second pressure switch would work.. Very simple solution.. I knew there was one but i was over looking...

I don't want to limit the time it runs each cycle only **** it off if it runs a long cycle

Lol.. I like this :thumbup:

Wonder if there is something that would read the psi at a low side maybe at the end of the air main mine run and if the psi dropped below a set point it would shut the power or break the power.

Hotwire 240 to the door knob and if the power is on to the compressor it shocks them and they can't leave lol.... A sign is a good idea I'll probably do that anyways but like anything else it still leaves room for human error. I even would rather take myself out of the equation too so that I...

Just to many variable. Thanks everyone for the help and I am still reading on some of the suggested items. I hope I can make one work.

I think for what I'm needing or wanting to do its going to end up being a headache other than the spring timer. But would rather just leave it on all the time and have something to shut it down or off if the compressor runs for more than a set amount of time in a single event.

What about from my side. Could I make a direct connection to on off so I do not have to use a timer.

Well I would only need one reset button. The only time it would run longer than x amount of time is if there was an issue and the tank was not storing the air. I think this is what your stating.

Oh no worries man. You didn't and won't lol

Allen Bradley 700-HR hmmmmm. looking up specs on this now. Just trying to figure out how to wire it and it is fairly inexpensive.

Lol you guys are really taking my brother or the way i started this the wrong way.. Normally they do turn stuff off but like i said i have left before and forgot to turn it off myself. I just want a safety backup.
