 Yes, a big part of FIRST is learning from others. But a just as important part of FIRST is learning from discovery. - [more] |

Pneumatics Problem + possible fix
After building our robot this year, we have 6 pneumatic cylinders ranging in stroke from 6 inches to close to 1 foot. We realized that our dual reservoirs would hit 60 PSI and hen it would leak somewhere because the total pressure never went above 60 PSI even though our pressure sensor was supposed to go up to 125 PSI! And with all the cylinders we had to operate, we needed a LOT of air and the compressor would not stop and it got to the point where it got so hot I got a pretty decent burn! We checked every connection and we finally traced it to the new pressure reducer we got from Norgren in the new kit. We replaced it with last years and the problem was fixed. If any of you are experiencing this problem, try this first!
