What Size Tank can the Mantus Scuba Compressor Fill?
The Mantus Scuba Compressor can fill a sealed tank of any size to 3000 psi given enough time. Most portable high pressure compressors on the market provide fill rates of 60 – 80 liters per minute and can fill the full size 80 cubic feet tank in about 30 – 40 min. Our Mantus Scuba Compressor is smaller, lighter and draws only 13 amps at 110 volts. Because of this the flow rate is 35 liters per minute (1.3 cfm) and the time to fill a 80 cubic feet tank is 60 min. The compressor is optimized to fill Mantus 3.5 liter tanks, which it can fill in 20 min. Please see the chart below for fill times of different size tanks to different pressures:
