Reg Meters

[2pods]

After setting up my co2 system everything seems fine.

I am a bit confused with the pressure dials though.

One is obviously 54 bar, the other I was told to set to 1 bar.
Should anything change these over two days ?

I know the 54bar will drop over time, but my 1 bar seems to have increased slightly.
The reason I'm worrying is at least one forum member had his delivered minus a seal, and mine is from the same place.

The gauge reading around 50Bar is reading the pressure inside the cylinder. The second gauge is reading the pressure downstream of your pressure regulator which, as you know, is adjusted by the valve on the front to a more usable pressure of around 1 - 2Bar.

Fluctuating room temperatures might have an effect on the regulated pressure, causing it to drift around slightly. I wouldn`t worry about any seals being missing, you would certainly know about it.

room temp will affect the pressure in the cylinder...

If you didnt have the seal - your co2 canister would be empty very quickly... accompanied by an audible hiss.

I shall take it as OK then, ( though I don't think Dave heard any hissing when his went ?)

I will return to my bubble watching, counting, and measuring
