Hi all,
New to posting however i'm a long time lurker.
I'm building a HPA system, i have +150psi water pumps,air compressors and all the the other things like nozzles.
I found an issue the first time i turned it on, the high pressure water pumps don't deal well with switching on and off all day nor it's energy efficient as the pump takes a huge load to kick in.
An Accumulator tank as i saw here in the forum should help with that, which would seem an easy fix however where i live, finding one is tricky and ordering one would be expensive due to the shipping charges.
My question is, is it possible to build an Accumulator Tank from a regular Gas Cylinder sold in gas stations?
Also can i use the Air Compressor to charge the accumulator with nutrient solution instead of using the water pump? I saw somewhere that this could be done at least for using the air compressor.
BTW the air compressor/pump is a Hailea ACO-009E 140L/min
