A one step pressure increaser
« on: April 01, 2010, 09:34:19 AM »
You have a 1" diameter steel pump 12 " high vertical in a 2 ton hydraulic press connected to you chamber below. Check valve, cut off valve etc.

Fill the pump/chamber to 600 psi with you a/c compressor.

(see my post on pressure assisted a/c compressor)


Use the hydraulic press to push the piston down to the bottom with 4,000 pounds of force

These pumps are under $20 at Harbor Freight..

Depending upon the volumes and diameters involved, your chamber will be filled at much higher pressure than 600 psi.
