Hello, this is my first post on VEX forums.
I’m using pneumatics for the first time, and there’s a problem with the wiring or something. Originally, there were no leaks, but once I added the pressure regulator, it started leaking. It only leaks once the brain is turned on though?? Is this normal? How do I fix it?
I tried tightening and untightening the knob but it still leaks either way. Also, I don’t know how to use the pressure regulator at all :/.
Thanks for the help in advance
Hi welcome to the forums! It would be helpful if you could send a picture to your system.
leaks are caused by alot of things.
The most common is loose fittings. Make sure all of your fittings are tight.
Another common issue is tubbing not being cut strait. When cut you want the tubing to be cut level and not angled.
Thanks for both of your guys’ help :D, I had solved the problem already. One of the tubes were bent and kinda loose, so it wasn’t the regulator’s fault. We just took the regulator out though. I’ll have to find out how that works later.
