I don't have this particular computer, but most computers don't have or require a setting for tank size. Specifically, displaying pressure and gas time remaining doesn't require it.
Jborg my previouse two air intergrated computers had it. If the PPX does not know the tank size how does it accurately calculate gas time remaining? There is a big difference in volume of gas at 100 cuft at 3000 psi versus 60 cuft at 3000 psi?
Pressure drop over time, actual volume isn’t needed. Essentially, if you went from 3000 psi to 1500 psi in 20 minutes the tank will be empty in another 20 minutes, regardless of size.
