I've been busy working in removing some edp coatings from some panels. Tonight I really worked the compressor a little more than I should have. I was trying to finish before dark. I have an 80 gal IR 18cfm. Its a single stage unit. When I use my da it pretty much runs continuous. Its located in the basement of my small shop building. When I went to put everything up, I decided to drain the water out of it. The tank was so hot it would burn you. I don't want to even think about how hot the pump was. I'm thinking about putting a box fan up on a shelf to blow across the pump. I'm sure this would help some. What do you guys think? Other than that I guess I'm going to have to take more breaks in the hotter temps.
