Drop $20 on a 200 psi pressure switch, return the one you've got.

but make sure your compressors duty cycle can run 200 psi or else you'll over work the pistons resulting in premature failure

444cs are rated for 200 psi. You're good. You can always get specifications for your gear from Viair's website or Bag Riders's.Last edited by Oh Damn, it's Sam; 04-08-2014, 01:39 PM.

Well, I don't see any obvious check valves, but maybe a couple of the pipe unions in the pic are them.
Assuming it has the check valves installed and there is a pressure switch, a safety valve, and a drain installed in the appropriate locations, I don't see anything there that is a cause for concern.
The aesthetics leave a little to be desired, but that's pretty subjective.

So, I was doing some thinking last night about a friend's setup, and it prompted me to reconsider a couple minor details in my earlier recommendations of stuff to buy, based upon the electrical draw of your compressors.
With the car running, twin 444cs draw a maximum 38A, which is within the threshold of what a single relay can handle. However, if the engine is off, they'll draw something like 41.6A, which is more than I feel comfortable running through a single relay. Instead, we should use one relay per compressor. Therefore, I'd keep the relay you have, and just get a second one to use alongside. You can get one from Bag Riders, or any auto parts store will have a 40A relay, usually in the electrical section. Most often they're used to run fog or driving lamps, if that helps get what you need.
I also would order a 50A fuse instead of a 40A one, just so the fuse doesn't pop if you run the compressors with the car off.
