Was just wondering because of the regulator being so small would it be fine with such a dead stop with pressure
Where did you get the needle valve from?My current set up for you. Works fine with this SOV but I have a decent needle valve in line as the regulator is impossible to fine tune with.
Looks like it might be a regulator then. Many people report issues when trying to use a solenoid with these small systems though.Hi Ian
Is this wrong then? Doesn’t it work? I was hoping it would
That's why I use the solid pipe to connect and a needle valve downstream of the SOV.You can't connect a solenoid to a Tropica Co2 nano system as the regulator on the cylinder is not in fact a regulator. It is technically a flow rate control valve, either a tiny hole or a metal sponge that just limits the gas flow from the cylinder. If you connect a solenoid to the output, as there is no "regulation" the gas pressure just builds up to the cylinder pressure and either bursts the connecting pipe, blows the connecting pipe off its connectors or just forces past the solenoid.
