FX compressor

[chris thomas]

Hi Guys

I am looking around for some information on my FX compressor. The pump which seems very similar to a hand pump needs a couple of 0-rings.

Can't seem to find a Drawing anywhere . Anyone ever come across anything like this. I have the hand pump parts plan but there small variations.

I might even move the compressor as I have two 300 bar tanks on there way

Had my new FX Royal turn up yesterday. .nice bit of gear

Thanks
Regards

HI Chris
I did have one of these compressors and i know that some of the hand pump orings do fit.
The main oring in stage 3 I used to used a teflon oring from Fluid seals in Artarmon.
There is a very knowledgeable bloke in QLD that Lewis put me on to years ago.
I don't have his contact details anymore but if you contact Lewis he might.

Thanks Gavin.

I did try Lewis but he told be the guy he used is now out of it.

I will keep asking questions around the traps some one will be able to help !!.

Really strange that FX just can't send me a PDF of something they sold .

I'm not that concerned about moving it along someone with some time and patients will re o ring the pump and it will be a handy bit of for them
I have been looking at Bauer Compressors so I can fill my own 12 l 300 bar tanks

Thanks

Chris your doing the same as i did. Sold the FX compressor onto a very handy fellow airgunner who rebuilt it spray painted it and now fills his Royal up with it.
I bought a Bauer JR11 about 2 years ago. Probably the best money I've spent. You will love the freedom.

Have a look at the Poseidon range too that are made by Bauer. Not much different than the Bauer. My mate bought a new one last month in QLD at a good price.
PM me if you want more details.

I am looking to sell the FX Compressor if anyone is interested it will need a o ring kit put through it . Good project for some one who has time .

PM me for more information if interested.

Thanks Chris Thomas

Chris this mob can help out with any o ring you require. Fx/Gehmann would use a Euro standard size.

Thank you for the info on the O-rings.

I am running two 300 bar tanks now so might no worry about the compressor. Thanks again

Hi Gavin


I’m back...

Where did you buy your Bauer? I wish I never sold mine now!

Hi Lewis

Great to see you back.

Daryl at Divetek in Acacia Ridge. Real good guy knows his stuff. One of the best things I ever bought.

Hope to see you up there early next year. Would be good to catch up.

Thanks Gavin

It’s good to be back dealing with the good guys again


Bauer Australia won’t reply

I mustn’t be important enough

I know Daryl I think

Lewis,
Seen these on YouTube a while ago. Looks like it would be a simple compressor to knock up.

Certainly beats the manual method.
