Hi,
Are needle valves on reg/solenoids a standard fit? If they are where is a decent place to purchase one?
My needle valve appears to be playing up. I have a regulator solenoid which I was running on a soda stream gas bottle setup and it was working ok.
Yesterday I started using a FE and the bubble rate seemed to fluctuate a little bit. This morning when the solenoid opened up the bps were rapid to say the least. I had to turn the needle valve right down to get an acceptable 4bps.
A while later I had to turn the needle valve up slightly as the bps had slowed down!
At the moment it appears to have stabalized at 4bps. Would this be a dodgy needle valve/regulator?
Just to add the FE pressure is 800 psi or thereabouts which is the same as the soda stream bottle was.
Just as I was about to post this I have had to adjust again.
Any suggestions please?
