After having to remove an old tank that had out lived its years I ended up with water getting into my system. Now I know why I never had a problem. I had two tanks. The old one cought all the water and the second was kept dryer.
A good friend of mine help me find what I needed. Price is good and very adjustable to go with your needs. I added a 1/4 cut off valve in front of it so if I need to ever service it I can with out dumping the air. I wired it into the switch on the compressor so that its works when the compressor is running. It discharges as soon as the compressor comes on and I have it set to discharge every 4 min for 4 sec while running. So far so good. He told me that I need to find something I could put in-line between the compressor and the tank to help cool the hot air before it hits the tank. You can buy them but they are not so cheep? Need to see what will take the pressure and not hurt the air volume that could be adapted to it and then a fan to keep it cooler? And then if needed a desiccant unit for my paint and powder bay area if needed. I guess they have all any one would need just needed this first.

Don't buy the cheep Harbor Freight one for $10 except for little units. And the little units are good for tires and nail guns a sutch.
