Frequently Asked Questions
The only thing that is constant with CO2 is changes. However, those changes are very consistent and very predictable. The trick is to work within the realm of what CO2 will produce in terms of energy under given conditions rather than trying to change the nature of things. Dear Glenn Palmer:It is difficult for me too. I can't do anything about the way CO2 acts but I've figured out how to get my guns to work within the limitations that CO2 presents. The trick is to get the gun to operate with the pressures, flow and expansion rate conditions that CO2 offers when it is cold. You also have to limit your rate of fire to a level that CO2 can keep up with. CO2 has to go through the process of changing from a liquid to a gas and the speed at which that conversion takes place slows down as temps drop. The process of changing to a gas is what generates the chilling effect of CO2. A heater can only effect the CO2 when you stop shooting because chilling takes place much faster than any sort of safe heater could keep up with. Before you go to the chrono to set up to play, make sure that your gun and the tank you are going to use, is already the same temp as the air. That way you will be chronoing on under the same conditions that you will be playing under. The type of equipment
you are using will also limit the effectiveness So I though well they must of had to ask him if they could or not I though i would email you it is getting cold and in Nov. 30 I am getting a spyder shutter and I would like to play as soon as I can so could you tell me how to run my coČ without a heat sourceDO NOT use a heat source. It will just create more inconsistency not to mention , it isn't safe either. (and if u r the guy that owns Palmer's pursuit shop i have seenICC Classification Nonflammable compressed gas; green label Purity Typical 98.8% Valve Outlet CGA-320.825-14 NGO RH Ext. Properties... Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen in proportions by weight of about 27.3 percent carbon to 72.7 percent oxygen. A gas at normal atmospheric temperatures and pressures, carbon dioxide is colorless, odorless and about 1.5 times as heavy as air. A slightly acidic gas, it is felt by some persons to give a slightly pungent odor and biting taste. It is normally inert and non-toxic. Carbon dioxide exists simultaneously as a solid, liquid and gas at a temperature of -69.9 degrees F and a pressure of 60.4 psig (its triple point). Carbon dioxide will not burn and will not support combustion or life. Physical State in Cylinder Liquid Cylinder Color Industrial Grey Cylinder Color High Purity Silver
