I did consider sticking with a normal binary switch, and wiring the compressor trigger to the fan controller, that way the fan would come on whenever the compressor was engaged. But the trinary switch seems to be a smarter way to run it.

Re: SkinnyG's '61 Apache

I'm having trouble locating a simple LP switch that can connect to my drier. Golly I've searched.

I may just run the Trinary I have on the low side, and use the factory High Pressure on the compressor itself - I don't expect the Low Pressure side is going to ever see the 377psi the switch will shut off at. I imagine the High Pressure switch will have done its job long ago.
