Last year we tested 5 and used the one with the highest pressure. They are factory set. Best you can do is order a few more test them and cross your fingers.

Looks great!
Have you guys tried using strait fittings on the cylinders rather than 90's? You may find the flow to be a little better, may be able to increase your shot distance a little.

Why didn't I think of that?? Seems like the spike would be a cheap way out. Cheaper than a new module an breakout board.

Similar question here, the solenoid breakout can control 8 solenoids, is there a way to control more than 8? Secondly can we control two solenoids off of one output on the breakout board?

Thanks for the input. I was looking high and low in the pneumatics section and found nothing.

So as long as it is less than $400 and has 1/8" pipe thread, and 125psi rated its legal?

What rule number says price constraint?? I found some Parker solenoids that are 12volt, and 1/8" pipe. I assume they are legal, but am having an issue finding any other rule specs.
