what about the gauge which showed 1000psi? does it drop as well?
did you happen to turn off the main valve?
the main valve on your tank should be turned about 1/4 to 1/2 turn.

happened to me too, JBL regulator with solenoid. end up dumping it and buying a new one![]()

Hi guys..
thanks for the reply.. dismantle the stuff and retaped the joints and tightened all the connections. everything is running well now. But i should think the reason is cos i DID NOT open the cyllinder screw enough... how silly...
Cheers

regarding CO2... is it normal that sometimes i have to readjust the number of bubble persec. I usually set to 2 bps, but later on it changed to 1 bps.
Thx

Your regulator is not so good. Need to get a better one. Check with the seller for one that can do fine tuning. For advice, go to Nature. Chan's recommendation is dependable.regarding CO2... is it normal that sometimes i have to readjust the number of bubble persec. I usually set to 2 bps, but later on it changed to 1 bps.






for precise bubble rate control, a needle valve is required. precise control of bubble rate without needle valve will be a frustrating and hair-tearing experience.
