The label says it regulates pressure between 15-65 psi, though the gauge goes to 160. Can this be used to regulate higher pressures, say 80-100?

If you mean to adjust the output pressure to 80 to 100 psi, then it would depend on the input pressure being that high. 65 psi is the max pressure recommended by RV manufacturers and that is only on units made in about the last 10 years. 45 to 50 for older rigs. The highest line pressure in any RV park I have seen in my cross country travels so far has been 80 psi, and most parks with pressures above 60 psi will let you know so you can use a regulator. So this unit will adjust to around 90 psi if the line pressure is that high, but this unit is intended for RV use, so using on a system with higher flow capacities than what RV's have would result in a significant flow restriction thru the regulator.

Yes. Of course it is limited to what supply pressure is but I was able to adjust mine up to 80 psi and I believe that there was still adjustment left.

The gauge only goes to 120psi, so to go to 80 t0 100 is possible but why I wonder? I use mine on a RV and the plastic pipes would burst at 80 to 100psi even if any water supplier would pump water at that pressure except in 6inch pipes.

I don't go any higher than 105 psi but can go as high as 110 psi, hope this helps.

If your gauge only specifies R134a it may damage the gauge. R410 gauge has max pressure of 800 psi and burst pressure of 1000 psi. I have a gauge that will do R22, R134A & R410a.

Pressure preset range of 20 psi is adjustable to a higher or lower setting from 40 to 60 to like 30 to 50 by turning the main screw #1. The range low & high can be adjusted by turning screw #2. Full instructions are shown on the inside of the pressure cover.

The pressure gauge used to both read the pressure, and set the maximum pressure, has a max setting of 150psi. The trip needle would probably make it cut out at 148ish. So in theory it should be capable of this pressure.FYI the compressor is fairly slow. I used it on a tire with 20 psi, it took about 3 minutes to fill it to 35 psi.

It works great. With this regulator my pressure stays at 45 psi. I love it!

I don't really know but the gauge has reads up to 160psi. Don't know if that means it can.

I am not sure. This reg. does not have fine adjustment one dash in reg. equals 20 psi, you might need a finer adjustment

This is precisely the reason I purchased this pressure switch. I had one that was set to 30-50 and I wanted to raise my house pressure to 40-60 and this pressure switch worked just fine. I have a Goulds 5GS07412 at 275 feet below the surface. I think this is a 1/2 hp.

In testing it, I set the regulated pressure to 80PSI. I don't know if this has any affect on the point at which it starts back up. But, it restarted at about 168PSI.

This connector is just like what you have on a liquid propane tank, at 80 degrees around 128PSIG, at 130 degrees around 257PSIG. Regulated is usually 0.5 PSI and usually at most 15 PSI, a very different range. The valves, passages, etc are also made for these high pressures and at 0.5 PSI will likely not function or pass enough gas to do much. Then what ever you connect will also have a regulator, which will also not function properly with the low pressure and what ever you connect won't work. You need to bypass the regulator on your BBQ or what ever using the proper hose connection made for regulated pressure, to adapt it to connect to this connector would be vary dangerous because if anyone later connected to a regular tank at full pressure with no regulation massive gas would escape and possibly blow out hoses and lines not made for the pressure.

yes, the low side pressure gauge goes up to 300 psi, but that is only to help the service tech to use as a reference because it shouldnt exceed around 175 psi on most applications..the high side gauge goes in the thousands, which should be an indicator to how to operate..

This regulator and gage is designed to work at lower pressures, like a paint gun that works in the 28 to 30 psi range. It is ok if you hook it up on the inlet side to 150 psi, but you usually have the regulator set for 30-50 psi outlet.

The tag attached to mine says 160 PSI as does the gauge, but I have not tried to inflate anything that high.

The only thing that I can think of is that once the compressor builds up the desired pressure it will stop, activating again only once the pressure drops below the level you have it set at. The black cylinder on the top is your pressure regulator; twist it one way to increase the maximum amount of pressure, twist it the other way to decrease the max pressure. Yours might be turned all the way down, preventing any pressure from building up. Hope this helps!

PH, I assume that you are at an elevation wher 15 pounds is needed so to answer your question, it is yes. That is why experts advise having their pressure gauge tested every year or so. Using the weight, there is no need to be concerned if the gauge is off a bit. Although 1 psi would not be critical, the rules have always been strictly black and white with no gray area between.

20 PSI is the max that it should go up to before the pressure hits the warning part of the gauge.
