high / low pressure regs?

[oobermybeer]

ok guys i feel really silly asking this, but whats with the cross fire red blue high low pressure reg thing?

iv never had to deal with it, ill allways just bought tanks as carbon fibre 68cu 4500 psi.

helps?

output pressures.

angels tend to use low pressure, and most other markers will be better on HP. in theory anyway, I have run all sorts of things on a crossfire LP reg.

hp output is around 850psi and lp is 450psi.

hope this clears it up for ya!!

Crossfire Blue reg is Low pressure
Crossfire Red reg is high pressure.

If that's what you're asking.

Edit: I always get the colours wrong way round.

 

[oobermybeer]

both answers are good, so are angles the only low presh markers, what about ego 07's

 

[tom-1992]

Crossfire Red reg is Low pressure
Crossfire Blue reg is high pressure.

If that's what you're asking.

other way round

Crossfire Red reg is Low pressure
Crossfire Blue reg is high pressure.

If that's what you're asking.

no it isnt
RED = HP output (about 850 psi)
BLUE = LP output (about 450 psi)

most markers will run on low pressure but when ramping quickly some lp regs cant keep up with the high recharge rate, crossfire ones have a very good recharge rate though, 07 egos should work on both

is the high out put too much for some markers or meess with regs or something?

Yeah guys, I realised after I posted. I usually remember : Red is High like the highest traffic signal ! . I'm so sad.

yeh it's to high for some markers, but it won't blow up or anything it just won't chrono right if it's supposed to be lp

 

[Potter Loki]

the hp is only nessecary (sp) for blowback markers try a lp tank on a site rental or something to see what i mean, but the hp has a higher flow rate than lp so it wont drop off when shooting fast strings of paint, if straight hp air gets into a gun it can in theory blow it up, for instance ions run at about 160-180 psi, if much higher than 200 psi gets into the solinoid, it will blow the hoses off and mkost likely foock the noid up, this is why most high end markers have their own inbuilt vertical regs!
