FX Dreamline filling

markT · Aug 31, 2019

I’ve noticed that when I fill my FX Dreamline it does take on air very fast. Seem to be a restriction in the “ fill system.”

Safety?

My FX Streamline fills fast. No restriction/ flow control.

Is this specific to the Dreamline?

All my pcp guns (marauder, crossman pcp, fx impact) fill as fast as you open the valve on the tanks. I'm not sure if any airgun have a restriction valve on its fill port. That's why you open the valve on the tank slowly. Once the gauge on the gun reach its max pressure, close the valve on the tank.

The slow fill restriction is not uncommon. It can be frustrating at first but quickly becomes normal and appreciated. Saves you from overheating and overfilling by accident. You can adjust the rate of restriction. I know that the Cricket and several others have that safety feature.

Mark T, my Dreamline bottle doesn't have the restriction fill. It has a foster fill. If you have an air tube that fills with a probe, it may have a very small fill hole in the probe to restrict the flow. My Jager has this type of probe. Dave

Hi Dave, it’s the only rifle I have that takes a while to fill from a scuba tank. I use a fill probe from mfg. / FX. No big deal. Was just wandering if FX added this feature to the new models. I hope your new rig is doing well.
