Not too long ago, and after I'd watched this episode, I needed to replace my compressor. Based on your results and my needs I chose the ARB. It's been working a treat, especially as I have a 9L tank under the tray. The only part I got wrong was not replacing the hosing when I replaced the compressor. The PU line burst right at the compressor outlet but luckily this happened just after I finished airing up. Being near Whyalla at that point in the trip I located Whyalla Hose and Fittings, where the incredibly helpful staff fixed me up with a nylon hose, which has the pressure and temperature ratings to suit the job.

Thanks for the feedback, my ARB is still working fine ever since the day I got it, it's a great pump. I haven't heard of anyone else having issues with the ARB hose bursting.

​@@LockyourHubs4WDing Sorry, it wasn't the arb hose. My compressor is permanently fitted under the tray. I used PU hose and push-in fittings to pipe the system, including outlets front and rear, as well as the airbags. That hose was fine for the old compressor but was not rated for the temperature and pressure of the ARB. The hose, which only had a 120PSI rating anyway, got hot right where it connects to the compressor and burst. The nylon is so much better I'm going to redo my workshop with it as well.

When using your compressor to inflate multiple cars its a good idea to cool off the connection or the hose can blow off. I know this as it happened to me.. If you dont have a spare hose you could be stuck if no-one else is around to help..

Back pressure is a real thing. It increases amps, massively increases heat, and shortens life. Normal tire stems can only allow ~5.5 cfm flow which is why that’s a popular number. These higher output around 11cfm should only be used on two or more tires at once or a high flow stem valve. Redo the tests on two or more tires and you’ll see huge differences in all your numbers.

I’ve got a 9L tank in my twin compressor set up. The time spend filling a tyre from around 18-40psi with and without the tank (fully charged at 140psi) is less than around 10’sec from memory (1min 45 with tank, 1min 55 without tank), so not much difference really. It is satisfying knowing that the compressor is till working for you in between changing from one tyre to the next though, even if it is only saving you 10 seconds!

@@LockyourHubs4WDing hmmm, I don’t think so. I can seat my tubeless Mtb tyres instantly and plenty of air comes out - no bottlenecks. But the tank is only 9 litre so after the initial rush of air into they 33” tyre bringing it up to say 25psi, you are then filling both the tyre and the tank up to the require 40psi. From what I understand the size of the tank and pump rating need to be balanced. Mine is about right (based on the Viair website). Bigger tank means much more time filling. Ultimately it would be good to have a manual or auto valve to shut off the tank after the pressure drops to the same as the tyre so now you are just filling the tyre, instead of tyre and tank. Your double big tank set up fills tyres great as you saw, but try doing four in a row, either stopping to wait to refill tank or not, outcome would be relatively the similar I think.

I've had a few comments about that, I might do a video on how to optimise the air tank capacity for your setup.

I was keen for another player in the game but man I’m not sure if they’ve dethroned the king! It’s much larger which didn’t come across in stills I saw before this vid, is heavier draws a lot more current and is hardly any faster in real world trim (18-40psi, as practically no one has room for dual fire extinguisher air tanks )I do like it’s little manifold though and even the single is 100% duty cycle I believe? I haven’t looked into it’s up rating .

Hmmmm, I've still got one of those under the bonnet of the 80 running the lockers (It's about 10 years old) I'm not sure of the specs, and it still gets a run of inflation duties occasionally when I lend out the twin. While it might not be rated for 100% duty cycle, I can honestly say mine has never turned off from getting too hot either.

@@LockyourHubs4WDing no doubt it still works, just stating the facts that it’s not 100% rated. Are the tjm units ip67/8 rated? Be cool to throw it under the bonnet and throw the intake into the airbox

This interesting video I would've thought the tjm would be better being a larger pump. In the end the cons of price, weight, size and current draw don't make up the 6 or 7 sec saving per tyre. In my opinion tanks are pointless as they're only ever good for one tyre or less depending on size of your tank. 1.5 min saving isn't worth it over pumping up 4 tyres . my system is a arb twin with tyre pressure control and a indeflate so I can 2 35s at once pressure I set and I can walk away till its done and then move on to the next 2. The biggest hassles of pumping up tyres are eliminated. bending over and monitoring pressures

I'm yet to test the ARB tyre pressure auto inflator. I use the Jamec Pem Auto 1000, which is a great piece of gear, though no bluetooth! The Jamec Pem though really restricts high flow rates, just like the ARB digital manual inflator. I hope the ARB auto does a better job.

There are also 180psi switches for the ARB available, though that wouldn't be fair either. You need to test one standard pump against the other standard pump.

i think a point to note here is the location of the cylinder heads. TJM is exposed leaving it open to touching things whereas the ARB heads are located within the body. The physical size of the TJM unit is noticeably bigger too both in diameter and length meaning the TJM wasnt an option for me to mount under my seats - ARB won out for me.
@LockyourHubs4WDing
@LockyourHubs4WDing Жыл бұрын
Either are going to be a great choice, but you're right that the TJM is much larger physically and that's going to limit mounting options.

Inflating through 1 Schrader valve is a bottleneck. Inflate 4 tires at once with each pump and the TJM will be on top. Try it.

The Schrader is definitely a bottleneck, though you have to test as most people would use the air compressor.
