Benjamin Leaking Benj Armada with Huma regulator

Where you located ? ( State )

I bought a used Benjamin Armada a few months ago with aftermarket regulator. It is real accurate but lately I have noticed it is leaking about 100 psi per day. It has 2 gauges, the regulator gauge. The 2 gauges don't match in pressure readings. The guns tank pressure gauge will only read up to 1900 psi when the regulator gauge is full at 200 bar. They only start dropping together when the regulator is 1900 psi. That has not been a problem but the leak is a problem. Who would you recommend to repair the leak.

You have two gages? If so one is in the reservoir tube (max psi 3000) and the other is in the plenum behind the regulator and it reads the regulator set pressure. The regulator plenum gage will not begin to fall until the reservoir pressure drops below reg pressure which appears to be 1900 psi for your regulator setting (which is what mine is also).

Right now there could be any of several leak areas:

1. One of the gages
2. The Huma regulator O-rings
3. The valve poppet or valve O-ring
4. Just about anywhere else there is a seal or O-ring.

The leak could be on either side of the regulator at this point, just not enough to determine.
