Light Duty GX Pump CS2
4,500 PSI max · Fan-cooled
12V fan-cooled 4500 PSI compressor with a 110V converter in the box. Manual shutoff: no auto-stop.
5800 PSI inline filter dryer with desiccant and activated carbon. 8mm quick-connects, magnetic mount. The easy add-on for compressors without a separator.

A serviceable inline filter dryer for the output side of a PCP compressor. Air passes through desiccant to pull out moisture, activated carbon to cut oil vapor and odors, and multi-layer sponge for particles, so drier, cleaner air reaches your rifle, paintball tank, or mini scuba bottle. It's rated to 5800 PSI (400 bar), with a pressure-relief valve and a 43 MPa copper burst disc for protection. Open the drain valve regularly to dump collected water, and swap the carbon and desiccant when it stops keeping up. The 8mm male inlet and female outlet make the airflow direction obvious. Built-in magnets hold it upright on a steel compressor body, or bolt it to a bench using the M6 points. Mounting it vertically is what lets it collect and drain moisture properly. Unlike the GX Pro-Grade filter, it has no pressure-maintaining valve. Air flows straight through instead of being held until it builds to roughly 1800 to 2000 PSI, so it won't squeeze out as much water per pass.
Coming soon. Roger hasn't evaluated this one yet.

It uses standard 8mm quick-connects (male in, female out), so it drops inline on almost any PCP compressor. It's the easy fix for compressors that don't have a built-in separator. Like any separator, it works best standing upright.
