Combining two compressors for double the scfm / how to combine two compressors

In this video I show a quick run down of the setup I put together to get myself the appropriate airflow for usage of my HVLP paint sprayer.
While analyzing the fittings and couplers and adapters I used, bear in mind I was trying to utilize many pieces that I already had. I could have streamlined (ie:, used less pieces) if I had started the project with no fittings whatsoever, and acquired from there.
That said, I used check valves and t adapters, hi flow male and female adapters and couplers, barbs, etc- pieces readily found on Amazon prime, as well as northern tool and harbor freight.
I purchased two 2.5 HP, 10 gallon, 6.2 scfm @ 40 psi, air compressors from harbor freight at $160 each, which together, should theoretically give me a total 12.4 scfm, thus allowing me to spray exceptionally large projects. For roughly $400-$450, I have achieved what no compressor at 120v can achieve in this price range.
I hope this video serves to inspire you to consider this alternative if you find yourself needing more airflow on a limited budget!

Really very simple. Remove the emergency valve and replace with a tee, emergency valve one side then check valve and fittings other side. Then repeat for second compressor! Love it. So many other videos over complicate the process and don't show what you need to actually do to pull this off. Even better if you use proper belt driven compressors, quieter and will last forever basically.

on second compressor you moved pressure relief valve and used that for line out to dryer? Best video on this. you can see the parts he used and he tells you exactly what goes where.

Gustavo! thank you very much. Do you remember where you got the check valves and their sizes? - Thanks again

Is there any other place to route the air from besides the safety valve? Would prefer just to leave those valves exactly as they are.

Clever setup 👌🏽👍🏽.so on the second compressor, when you showing us the check valve,where is it actually stopping at ?

Why do you need the check valves? Thanks!

Wonder how many people will connect two compressors in this manner not knowing that it is not only incorrect with 2 check valves doing the exact same thing but very dangerous without the 2nd compressor not having a properly installed pressure release.

Very valid comment…Second compressor is the critical compressor which should definitely have a safety valve properly installed since it’s building pressure from first one

I’m doubly impressed that the creator responded with such humility and honesty. Hard to find in the “Information Age”. I have one strict edict; I prefer to be wrong instead of right. When I’m right, I haven’t learned much if I already knew I was right. If I’m wrong, I then know I’ve learned some valuable info. Reduce variables. It’s my religion.

I think the “emergency safety valve “ in the second compressor must be placed after the “check one way valve” for it to protect the second compressor ?
@1someoneelse

It appears you are correct. The second check valve is useless because it’s doing the same as the first which means the pressure relief on the second compressor will not activate for the 2nd compressor.

What type of check valves did you use? Great work.

@peterw8911
@peterw8911 2 года назад
Yah same question, why two check valves? And on the second compressor the check valve essentially makes the safety pressure switch inoperative. as air can't come back to it. Or am I missing something...
