Hand pump moisture filter?

[dave1911]

 Hello all,
I have heard some folks speak of a fitting or accessory that goes on a hand pump that decreases or illuminates the moisture going into the guns air reservoir, is there a retro one for the Benjamin hand pump.

Thank you 
Dave

Take a look at Hill pumps, theirs might fit Benji pump.

I have the Benjamin pump that came with the Maximus package I ordered two months ago. I don't know if it can accept a filter.

But after trying to pump my new Streamline 22 with it last night, it was all I could do to get it to 200 bar.

So I ordered a Hill pump kit that comes with the moisture filter. It has 900 psi more capacity than the Benjamin pump so hopefully I'll be able to pump it all the way up. If not, at least I'll have the filter and the ability to service the pump.

Dave, go to Amazon and search for Desiccant kit for Benjamin hand pump and you'll find what you need.

Bob, I use a Hill Mk4 to pump my Matador to 200bars regularly. It will make it there with ease.

Tweeter, that's exactly the pump I ordered!!!

I tried my best to get to 230 bar, but could only make a hair above 220...and that was with all 220lbs of me balancing on the handle...LOL!!!

You can go directly to SunOptics(who manufactures the hand pump for Benjamin) and order a desicant kit that comes with the canister and the stuff that goes inside, removed the air intake filter and screw it in its place.
