Ok, did a quick search, didn't find what I was looking for.
I want to plumb a 1-4 manifold to my CO2 tank in the back hatch area of my Xterra, so that the 4 outlets w/QDs are near each wheel for quick simultaneous inflation of my tires.
Here's the problem, I need a way to actuate a valve when the manifold pressure reaches a certain (variable depending on the tires I'm running) PSI. What I need is exactly like a pressure solenoid on an air tank to shut off a compressor, but obviously I have no compressor, so it would have to trigger a valve of some sort to stop the flow of CO2. I've looked at McMaster Carr and can't find what I'm looking for.
I'd rather NOT spend a fortune on this, and I realize this isn't likely to happen, but I figured I'd utilize the knowledge base out there.
TIA.
