Hyper 2 In-line Regulator Product Guide The ‘04 DYE Hyper 2 In-Line Regulator has been designed to meet the quickly changing demands of today’s top players. The ‘04 Hyper In-line exceeds the requirements of every paint gun on the market today. With extremely consistent regulated output pressure and an amazingly high rate of airflow, the ‘04 Hyper 2 In-Line virtually eliminates inconsistent velocity, as well as shoot down due to inadequate air supply. The Hyper 2 In-Line has an easily fine-tuned range of adjustment, from 50psi to 450psi. With the air inlet port located on a swivel at the bottom of the regulator, the Hyper 2 In-line is quickly installed onto almost every gun, with nearly any cradle and air system configuration. The external pressure adjustment is easily accessed at the bottom of the regulator with a standard 3/16” Allen wrench.
Installation and Adjustment The Hyper 2 In-Line fits any standard ASA adapter. To install the Hyper 2 In-Line, simply thread on the desired air fitting into the air inlet port on the side of the swivel sleeve. Use a thread sealant similar to Loctite. After carefully connecting your air hose from your bottle or air system to the Hyper 2 In-Line you will need to adjust the Hyper 2 reg to the recommended output pressure for your marker. The Hyper 2 In-Line is set by the factory to approximately 175psi. The output pressure of the Hyper 2 In-Line is adjusted by turning the brass seat housing. The seat housing screw is located up inside the bottom of the reg. A 3/16” Allen wrench will be needed for this operation. By turning the housing counterclockwise, you will increase the output pressure of the reg to the gun. By turning the housing screw clockwise, you will decrease the output pressure of the reg. After each adjustment of the output pressure of the Hyper 2 In-Line, you will need to cycle your marker a few times. This will allow your marker and air system to stabilize at their new operating pressure. The Hyper 2 will need a break-in period of about 2,500 shots to let its seat form to the piston and reach its optimum performance.
Trouble Shooting PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
No or poor air flow
Check for blocked air passage in hose line or regulator. Adjustment screw may be screwed in too far. Seat may have excessively deep piston groove cut into it. Replace if needed.
Erratic velocity or shoot down
Piston or spring stack may be binding due to excessive dirt or lack of lubricant. Seat may be dirty or damaged. Clean and grease reg. Inspect and replace damaged parts as needed.
Output pressure creeps up
Dirty seat or damaged piston face. Clean and inspect; if either is damaged, replace.
Air leaks from side vent hole.
Piston o-rings may be damaged. Inspect o-rings. Replace if any visible nicks or cuts are found.
Air leaks out bottom of adjustment screw
This is a safety bleed-off to help prevent over-pressurizing. De-gas the Hyper 2; be sure all air is vented out of the reg. Supply air back to the regulator. The leak should stop. If the leak persists replace the reg seat. Make sure there are no nicks or scratches on the raised ring at the bottom of the seat-retaining cavity.
Hyper 2 In-line Regulator Maintenance and Repair The Hyper 2 In-Line was designed to perform under the most extreme playing conditions, and built to hold up under the abuse of even the roughest player. Even with this much durability built into the Hyper 2 In-Line, excessive dirt and debris can affect its performance and increase the need for servicing. Some general maintenance must be performed to ensure optimum performance. 1. Make sure the inlet and outlet ports and connecting fittings are free of all dirt and paint. 2. Examine all o-rings for nicks or cuts. 3. Carefully inspect the seat for excessive wear that might cause spiking and over-pressurizing. 4. Clean any accumulated dirt out of the air chambers and passages. 5. Keep the piston o-rings and spring pack well greased to allow smooth velocity adjustment and prevent erratic velocity spikes and drop off. 6. Clean off all old grease that may be contaminated with dirt; reapply fresh grease to the piston and other necessary areas. 7. Be sure to reassemble the internal components in the proper order and direction. 8. See diagram for assistance.
Disassembly Disassembly of the Hyper 2 In-Line is easily done with a 3/8” and a 5/16” Allen wrench. 1. Remove all air from your gun and Hyper 2 In-Line Regulator and remove reg from gun. 2. Lock the 3/8” Allen wrench into the top of the Hyper 2 In-Line. Using the 5/16”Allen wrench, unscrew the bottom retaining cap from the main body. 3. Once the bottom-retaining cap is removed, you will be able to unscrew the seat housing from the reg body. Use a 3/16” Allen wrench. With the seat housing extracted from the reg body, inspect the seat for dirt and/or visible damage. The seat should be free of dirt, nicks, and cuts. There will be a recessed ring on the face of the seat. This is normal wear from the piston face sealing against the seat. 4. Once the bottom-retaining cap has been removed from the reg, the swivel sleeve will pull off the reg with only little resistance due to o-rings dragging. Keep the swivel post o-rings well greased to insure smooth turning of the swivel. 5. To access the piston and spring pack, you will need to remove the top cap. Use the 3/8” Allen wrench. The piston and spring pack will then be accessible from the top of the main reg body. Inspect the piston o-ring and make sure the spring pack is assembled correctly. The spring pack is comprised of nine (9) shims. Be sure the shims alternate direction when stacked. Look closely at the face of the piston that makes contact with the seat. Make sure it has no major nicks or scratches on it. 6. When installing the spring and piston you must take special care to make sure that the #007 o-ring is fully seated down into the main reg body. You must make sure to keep the #007 o-ring seated in place when the piston is pressed in.
