Regulator Question

Hey Pneumatics forum!

Quick question:

This is my first time designing a pneumatic system, we have the pressure working fairly consistently: limited to 60psi on the working side of the regulator. However, our regulator is venting the excess pressure and not allowing it to build up on the high side of the regulator.

I can't imagine that this would be the intended function for the regulator considering that the manual mentions the limit of 115psi on the high side. Is there something we may have configured wrong? Thoughts?

Thanks
