Instrument air alarms reset after new compressor valved in
The new corner station scroll pump air compressor was valved in at 09:39 PDT this morning. I has gone through 3 compression cycles since then. Here are the stats
Compression starts when pressure has dropped to 87PSI
Compression stops when pressure reaches 116PSI
Compression takes about 7 minutes
Pressure drop takes about 14 minutes
Compression cycle time about 21.5 minutes.
I have reset the cell phone alarms with the levels: LOW = 80PSI, HIGH = 120PSI
