martifers Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Found this in the garage while clearing out. Came with my truck I bought last year but have never known what it was for. Found this today AIRTAC but still not really the wiser. I am guessing it could be used for air treatment in AC pump powered air supply systems, to remove the oil used to lubricate the pump but not sure if that is correct or how this would be done. Anyone in the know? Cheers Sharpie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 It looks like a regulator, with a water trap and an oiler on the lefthandside of the first picture is the regulator - to regulate the ouput to a set pressure, determined by turning the knob on the top - with an integral water trap, to stop any condensed water getting to whatever you have attached at the end. On the righthandside looks like an oiler - to add oil to the air so that things like air tools stay lubricated. It should have the input on the left and the output on the right I believe. hth Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnzee 300Tdi Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 It is indeed an regulator with an oil mist lubricator. The part on the right is the oil mist lubricator and it used to lubricate tools on the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Looks like the perfect bit of kit to go from an A/C to air compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martifers Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Ah cheers guys, that will work perfectly with my current set up when I add a tank in the back! Score Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
