Strange filling issue, bleeding hose empties cylinder?!

[jt-outta-cali]

This issue is consistent with bottle and compressor, and only affects 1 of my pcps..

It’s my Brocock atomic xr. So once the gun is filled up and I stop the pump or close the bottle. When I open the bleed valve slowly all the air from the cylinder leaks out!

Now.. if I do everything the same but I open the bleed valve as quick as I can then all is normal. Seems like bearing in the fill probe isn’t closing properly?

In order that the filling valve can close, the bleeding has to be done in one stroke. Other way there is no change of pressure to close the valve.

Sounds like it’s working properly. A quick drop in pressure is needed on some check valves to properly close.
