- In this video we go over the installation of the ARB pressure control kit and my initial thoughts and impressions.
Installed in the ARB Drawer system keeping it out of harms way and easily accessible.
It works well for finite control over analogue systems however for deflation purposes the Indeflate system is king.

Great video 🎉 clear concise. Best video I have seen on the pressure control unit.
Thank you
He done it again with another great video man! This is so cool!
Thank you buddy always appreciate the support!
Great tutorial 👌. Answered all my questions, keep the video coming
Thank you buddy appreciate the feedback
Just stumbled across your channel looking for info on this module ... awesome video and all questions answered! Lekker boet! 👊
Awesome glad I could be of assistance bru!
Love this video dude. I've ben looking for a set up like this!
Glad you enjoyed!
Good one 👏
Thank you
hopefully they make a one box kit with everything in a small box with in/out air fitting and cig power leed so we can just add to portable compressors.
That would be great and a lot less hassle
great. Am i correct in understanding that the PRB needs to be connected to the air tank outlet and not before the inlet ? because the air tank lets out a large volume for the tires and air tools etc. Correct me if im wrong. thanks

Just had a ARB twin compressor installed in my truck connected to a 1 gallon air tank. Frustrating trying to air up all four tires at once, as the pressure gauge appears to measure between the tank pressure and the tire pressure. Considering just taking out the air tank and only using the compressor. You guys seem to have confirmed that in your video. Air hoses only connected to the compressor would have no choice but to read tire pressure. The air tank seems to confuse the issue. Do you guys agree with that ?
Hi there and thanks for getting in touch. Very interesting! Now I personally dont have the 4L tank however I have a sneaking suspision it is being caused by how the air lines have been connected into the solenoids that communicate with the Pressure control system. To be perfectly honest ive relied more on my Indeflate system which allows me to deflate or inflate to the pressures I need. Let me know how you get on and if you need any further help
KInd regards
Is your pressure control plumbed between the compressor and tank or between the tank and the outlet?
Hi. Did you find the solution as I have the air tank as well and air lockers. So before ordering the pressure control kit I'm curious if it has been solved. Thanks
Justin, great content thank you, however I am interested in your aluminium tail gate, can’t find anything in your vid collection,
Do you have a install vid or information on it please, thank you
I custom made that out of stainless steel so it’s a clean food prepping surface/work surface.
@@MachinaDesigns thank you great job, maybe you should patten as it’s perfect as you say for food prep, keep the vids coming please
@@ranger10-47 I’m getting them made up for people if they want them. I’ll have a look at costs and list it on my website for people who are interested
@@MachinaDesigns hi what is your website address please
@@ranger10-47 www.DirtworX industries.com look in the custom worx section but I’ll add the tailgate table to the website tonight
Can this be used on any 12VDC air compressor, Also, it looks like this unit is a stand alone as long as 12VDC are available?
The unit links into the arb solenoids and switches. I have no idea if it will on other units
Hi, do you know to set a default setting without an app that will open up the valve from the tank in case my phone run out of battery?
So in that scenario I would just disconnect the controller and run the compressor manually with the regular pressure gauge.
Does the pressure control affect the performance on how fast you air up? Like comparing with pressure control and with out pressure control which inflate faster?
It’s a good question. The only thing I have found with the pressure control system is that it has preset pressures ready for different environments, however you could deflate your tires just as quickly with a regular pressure gauge or indeflate system. I guess it’s just down to personal preference
@@MachinaDesigns I am considering to install this on my twin compressor but I dont want to lose the ability to air up fast.
You won’t loose the ability to air up fast. Like I mentioned it’s just a convenience of having preset pressures ready at a press of a button
@@MachinaDesigns thank you so much for this info. And great video!
You’re welcome
How do you know which solenoid is the deflate one? There’s no clear markings that indicate which one is which.
Indeed there isn’t but I figured this out by running the compressor and activate each one.
If you mount mounted that 90 degrees clockwise you wouldn't need the 90 bends... faster fill then. Also they are not cheap
Good advice thanks
Very good informative video, however I think personally I will keep using my fast deflate tool and arb twin compressor without this kit. I think its over complicating everything using an app with your phone, when you could just do it alot faster just inflating and deflating like normal. Finding your phone and using it with maybe wet and muddy hands is not ideal either. Just my 2 cents cheers for the review.
Thank you buddy and I appreciate your opinion. I have to agree with you as I’ve hardly used the system since my install. I now have the Lynx system which eliminates this kit and I still have yet to use it. I admire the concept behind it however in a real world setting I doubt they get utilised as much as they should
What is the speed difference between deflating with the ARB and the Indeflate? Can you do a video showing deflation with the ARB?
The real difference is that you can only do one tire at a time with the ARB system where as the indeflate does 2. A huge advantage and a clear winner. So I just use the indeflate to deflate but also inflate as it connects to 2 tires at the same time. Hope that helps
@@MachinaDesigns Yeah totally makes sense I was just wondering if you could use the ARB to deflate through the indeflate so you could do 2 tires at a time. Or more simply if you had 4 hoses is there anything stopping you from ganging them all together and using the arb to deflate. Like how would it know whether you had 1 or 4 tires hooked up?
@@mclanesnow9304 very good question. So with the indeflate you can equalise the pressure between 2 tires by hooking it up and leaving it to settle for a couple minutes. Now indeflate also do a 4 tire system and operates on the same principles as the dual system. So I have also followed up after inflating both tires with the indeflate and checked pressures and they were exactly what the compressor was set to so I was pretty chuffed with the outcome.
Is this compatible with the indaflate 4 hose system?
I believe so yes. When I used my indeflate system it operated flawlessly. It will inflate all the tyres until the pressure you’ve selected is achieved. I used the 2 way system as my pressure differ from front to rear
After installation when start the compressor after 2min Good working after fuse burn. Fuse is 40A
Frustrating! Have you checked all your wiring connections and cables sizes? If all is ok I would contact ARB to help you diagnose the issue correctly. I hope you get it sorted buddy
When I use with 60A fuse it's Working good like 5,7min .so Can I use 60A fuse .
Is there any effect of compressor in future plz sugges.
I wouldn’t think there would be a problem as they don’t get used that much in reality however check all your connections just in case. Feel all cables while it’s running for excessive heat as that could be a tell tale sign too
What was the total installation time required for it?
A couple hours if that. It took my longer as I was faffing with wiring routes and placement etc but overall very easy to do
I just installed pressure control on twin compressor, but Im hearing a ticking sound when ever its functioning. Is this normal?
Sounds like it could be a solenoid.
@@MachinaDesigns and the solenoid could be defective?
I wouldn’t say it would be it may just be adjusting to the pressures
09:50 why the pressure is varying from 27 to 50 to 35 like that?
The pressure sensor is very sensitive and I had a small pin prick leak on one of the joints which caused the readings to fluctuate like that.
So if this fails what then full psi and flow? Or does it become dead and useless?
All good questions and advice. Now after using the system for a while I can safely say I don’t need it and just use the dual compressor with the standard hand gauge now. I don’t faf around with any electronics anymore to deflate or inflate my tires.
@Machina Designs its seemed cool till was half the price of the duel compressor it self. That and the fact if it dies it seems would need to rewire and re connect air line around it... all quite hard in a 200 in the quarter panel.
Kiss "keep it simple stupid" seem to work here with no redundancy available
why not deflate using the valve like its designed for?
Indeed and that’s why I stick to my indeflate.
I don't get it either, he didn't use the system with how it's designed at all. It will auto deflate and inflate all tires if you have them all hooked up at once. Made it way more complicated than it needed to be.
I think you’re totally misunderstanding the system. It isn’t continually hooked up to your wheels and in many circumstances I’ll be running different pressures front and rear that’s why I use the indeflate system to do both wheels instead of individual wheels
Seems to hunt for pressure a lot
It appears to be however it’s the pressure relief valve keeping a constant pressure in the line. Admittedly it’s not 100% sealed hence it constantly adding air. Once you engage the air line to air up it works great and stops where it needs to. I rely on my Indeflate to air down which is way more efficient and simple to use.
Current pressure readings are all over.. not consistent at all..
You mean in the video or a unit you have?
