It's been a long time since I last posted (new house/job etc)
So I have three tanks setup now and I wanted to grow out some plants. So I run into the basement and grab my Co2 setup I built a couple years ago. To my surprise the tank was closed and there was still full pressure on the regulator (so the Burkert solenoid and regulator were definitely not leaking.)
Fast forward a week. The Co2 setup has been running on a fluval ebi tank and all is well.. so I finally found my 4dkh solution and drop checker, put that in the tank and dialed in to a nice light green, everythings great..
Woke up this morning hoping to see a nice blue drop checker.. nope still green, Co2 still pumping.. I tried disconnecting the diffuser and opening the needle valve and cranking max pressure (25psi) and cycling the solenoid... No joy still leaks closed...
Solenoid was definitely working last week.. I enjoy watching the diffuser explode with bubbles when the pressure builds, and witnessed this on several occasions last week.
Any suggestions/repairs or replacement seals available???
Thanks guys/gals
