solenoid question

[siavashv]

I have CA reactor and the milwaukee solenoid/bubble counter thing keeps bubbling even when the solenoid turns off. Not very much but still bubbling a bit. How can I fix this?

Thanks

Does it eventually stop?
If not it's carbon build up and Milwaukee has on their website how togetrid of it.
If yes, it's just pressure that slowly a drops, there is actually no CO2 flowing...

Thanks Robb.. I was hoping you would chime in... I am keeping an eye on it.. Doesn't look like its stopping. I'll visit the milwaukee site.. but geez, this thing is less than 4 months old!

Milwaukee is awesome about replacing their stuff...

Just out of curiosity. How long are we talking in terms of it eventually stopping?

 

[lilrobb]

10seconds, maybe 20...
Really depends on the overall pressure differential...

Had the same issue. I ended up taking mine apart and cleaning it. I also just replaced my needle valve.
