By pushing the air through the system ; you are creating an explosion hazard or a bomb. Use a suction fan to extract PG and if it stops up or constricts across the Delta P by any margin , you will see it on your vacumm gauges after the filter. Pressurizing the system without being a ASME Coded Vessel rated for pressure can "KILL" or .severely injure you.
Even if you use a ASME certified tank you have modified it. ASME only requires the manufacturer to test the vessel to 2X the working pressure, so if it has a 150 working PSI it was tested to 300 PSI. It is possible to explode the gas at a higher pressure than the tank was rated. I worked for 7 yrs in a tank manufacturing company and have seen many failures and their results, thank God they were inside a properly built tester when they fail.
