Important Note: Due to a change in EU legislation, safety valve rings have been removed by all manufacturers of air compressors. This change addresses the incorrect use of the ring for venting the compressor, which caused unnecessary wear on safety devices. Air should be drained from the tank via the valve on the belly of the tank, allowing for simultaneous drainage of water.
