What Pressur For Hw100

[jocky 198]

hi all, what pressure should be in a hw100. I can only get it up to 130. filled it last night to see if there was any leaks and no leaks still on 130.

im pretty new to the pcp world so dont take it as gospel but it dont sound right falcon is charged to 190 as of most i understand and theres a sweet spot between about 180 to 110 i could be wrong im sure someone will be along soon to help you out pal atb

Usually up to 200 but I take it to 190 most of the time. Is your bottle full? (assuming you are using a bottle) if it's only got 130 in it that's all it will take the rifle up to.

As above, Just what I was going to say

[secretagentmole 1,701]

I fill mine to 200 bar because HW100 has a device in which restricts the pressure from the bottle to the action but it is not a regulator (they say it is not, everybody else says it is).

 

Are you filling from bottle or pump? If you are using a pump you need to use it properly, if from a bottle, as previously advised, you need a top up!

bottle is about 3/4 full its the big bottle , will take it to get it checked. thanks lads

If bottle 3/4 full, it should still be able to get your rifle up to around 200bar. Possible that the gauge on your bottle is faulty?

[jocky 198]

think it must be the gauge, as just filler s410 and daystate x2 up and they have only filled to 135. thanks lads.

The bottle size is irrelevant. If you have tried to fill 3 rifles off it and all are only going to 130 bar (ish ) then there is only 130 bar in the tank. A 200 bar cylinder 3/4 full is 133 bar or there about so all sounds correct to me.
