We also check compressor airflow, aeration, discharge distance, silo height and receiving-silo backpressure.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pm-working-pressure-answer\"><strong>Quick answer:<\/strong> high pressure is not automatically good pressure. If tank pressure is high but cement flow is slow, the first engineering direction is usually to find resistance or poor fluidization\u2014not simply increase pressure.
