I have this compressor Viair 325C pushing a 2 gallon tank. but i want to put either a 5 gallon or a 8.5. would this push it to the 150 psi setting? jw

i don’t think so… for a 5 gallon get a 380c or a 480c and for the 8.5 gallon get a dual 380c or a dual 480c those are the best way yo go cuz if some day you want to run 200psi there you have the compressors

I run 2 480’s and 2 8.5 gallon tanks. I need at lease one other compressor, or 2 bigger ones. Yours is way too small for 8.5 tank. You should get a bigger compressor if going over 5 gallons. Personnally the 325 is too small/slow for a 5 gallon tank.

325 C fill rates.
3 Gallon Tank Fill Rate
0 To 105 PSI 2 Min. 38 Sec.
0 To 145 PSI 4 Min. 05 Sec.
85 To 105 PSI 30 Seconds
110 To 145 PSI 1 Min.11 Sec.

5 Gallon Tank	Fill Rate
0 To 105 PSI	4 Min. 31 Sec.
0 To 145 PSI	6 Min. 51 Sec.
85 To 105 PSI	55 Seconds
110 To 145 PSI	2 Min. 04 Sec.

Get an Oasis compressor and stop worrying about tank size & fill rate.
