Default Classic run time

How long will a Classic with footpedal run on a 20 Gal. compressor tank pumped to 100 psi? Is this thing going to be kicking in all the time? It doesn't sound like it from all the posts I'm reading.

Default Re: Classic run time

Hi Paddlefoot, I'm not sure, but I have a 60 gallon. I turn it on and let it fill up and then shut it off. It is good for maybe 4 days to a week depending on how deep and much engraving I'm doing. When it gets too low (25 psi) I turn it back on and shut off when full.

Paddlefoot

I am running a Classic and Artisan foot contol off a 21 gal compressor
set at low of 90psi and 120psi high. Compressor comes on 1 1/2 - 2 hrs depending on substained usage of AirGraver.

Thanks. That sounds about like I thought. I do like that much better than having a compressor running continually.
