OTHER OPERATING INFORMATION:
Please be advised, as part of the self-compensating regulator technology, you will
hear a slight CO
2
release or “hissing” sound from the center of the knob on the self-
compensating regulator from time to time. This is normal, and is a result of the
regulator compensating for pressure changes in the CO
2
cylinder. This compensation,
or “hissing”, is very gradual and may only be audible for a short period of time and is the
regulator maintaining pressure. The "hissing" is caused by the venting through a small
hole in the center of this regulator.
WHEN A “HISSING” SOUND WILL OCCUR:
1. After filling cylinder and connecting to the system in a hot environment. (The
temperature will rise in the cylinder, resulting in compensation).
2. After transporting unit/cylinder. (The temperature will decrease in the cylinder,
resulting in compensation).
3. When CO
2
cylinder is low and almost empty. (The CO
2
is so low that pressure
is changing constantly to accommodate the CO
2
release by the compensating
regulator).
4. Unit sits idle for a period of time. (Environmental conditions may change, resulting in
a temperature change in the cylinder).
PERSISTENT “HISSING” IS NOT NORMAL:
When the CO
2
valve is open, if there is a persistent, non-stop “hissing” sound, whether
spray gun trigger is pulled or not, check the CO
2
coil hose to the spray gun for damage
or leaks.
STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
As a preventative maintenance measure, it is requested that the hoses be checked for
wear and all sealing areas are checked for leaks after each use.
Also lubricate all hinges with a food grade mineral oil at least once per year.
TIP:
Depending on your usage, volume and needs, it is recommended to have an extra
set of CO
2
tanks on hand, so that you can continue using your BioSpray® System
while your empty CO
2
cylinders are being refilled.
WARNING:
Use only 10 lb. (BioSpray®-10C) preferably aluminum tank with a 7” diameter. If a
spare tank is needed, please call Goodway Technologies at (800) 333-7467 toll-free
or email us at [email protected]. Do not use any CO
2
tank with a dip tube.
