Product literature chart listing CO2 air-up times and quantity of tire fills across tank sizes and PSI increases for various tire sizes.
Part of 1987-1991 Ford Bronco Brochures & Literature
This document is a marketing/reference chart from Power Tank ("COMP Series") titled "AIR UP TIMES and QUANTITY OF TIRE FILLS," illustrating the speed and capacity of their portable high-performance CO2 tire inflation systems. The table lists eleven common tire sizes ranging from 205/75R15 up to 42x15x15 and, for four pressure-increase scenarios (10, 20, 30, and 40 PSI increases, each with example starting/ending pressure ranges), shows the approximate inflation time per tire and the total quantity of tires that can be filled by each tank size: PT5, PT10, PT15, and PT20. For example, a 33x12.50x15 tire takes about 15 seconds for a 10 PSI increase, and a PT10 tank can fill 40 such tires; a 40 PSI increase on a 42x15x15 tire takes about 3.8 minutes. A red line on the chart marks slower combinations, with a note recommending Monster Valves for maximum performance below that line; a footnote states inflation times can be cut by 50% when inflating through Monster Valves. All times are approximate and depend on tire brand, rim width, and stem flow rates. The document is undated and not vehicle-specific.

Frequently asked questions
- How long does a Power Tank take to add 10 PSI to a 33x12.50x15 tire?
- About 15 seconds per tire, per the chart; a PT5 can fill 20 such tires, a PT10 40, and a PT15 60.
- How many 35x12.50x15 tires can a PT10 tank inflate with a 20 PSI increase?
- The chart shows 16 tires for a PT10 tank with a 20 PSI increase (38 seconds per tire).
- What are Monster Valves and when are they recommended?
- The chart recommends Monster Valves if your inflation/deflation needs fall below the red line, and notes all inflation times can be cut by 50% when inflating through Monster Valves.
- What tank sizes are covered in the chart?
- Power Tank COMP Series tanks: PT5, PT10, PT15, and PT20.
- Are the listed inflation times exact?
- No: the footnote states all times are approximate, based on average tire size and stem flow rates, and may vary with tire brand, rim width, and stem flow rates.
