Hello friends,
Hopefully able to borrow some insight from you all. I recently installed a Huma Regulator onto my Bullboss .25 cal. Purchased from TrenierOutdoors(directed by Air Superiority), received it in the mail, degassed my cylinder, left it at factory 140 BAR setting, cleaned the cylinder and put silicone grease into the cylinder and outside the regulator itself. I removed the O ring as instructed from the valve body, and put some grease where the valve body would make contact with the reg. I left a small gap as instructed the size of a piece of paper(and later adjusting up to size of a business card). I feel the instructions were easy/clear and the installation was not very difficult, however overnight after slowly filling my cylinder(i realize when the air cools the pressure drops a little), my pressure would drop drastically from 200 BAR to 100 BAR, and then eventually to sub 50. I do not hear any leaks coming from the cylinder and I have readjusted the regulator many times thinking maybe it was the gap/o rings. Everything looks fine but it doesn't want to hold pressure. This makes me very sad, I have sent a message to Bwalton since he is an expert with Hatsans and uses the Huma regulators himself, also to TrenierOutdoors for a possibly defective regulator. Does anyone else here have some insight to this issue?
