Are the co2 burst disks the same as hpa 3k burst disks?

[Phil]

I though that I heard that somewhere. Anyone know?

I would guess not. I believe the CO2 disks burst at a lower pressure than the HPA 3k disks. If this is incorrect then why can I run my marker directly off CO2 but the HPA needs to be regulateded first?

no, 3k burst discs blow somewhere around 4.5-5k. co2 discs are much closer to 2k iirc

nope, you see, co2 is olny 800 psi, bever higher, meaning that bottle doesnt see much more pressure then 800 psi. If it does, the burst disc will go as a protection. The discs on the hpa tank, are not ste to go until over pressurized at the tanks full pressure, like over 3000psi if that is the size. ok? SO NO, THEY ARE NOT THE SAME

Thanks guys.

CO2 will burst at 1800psi
3k HPA will burst at 4500psi
4.5k HPA will burts at 7500psi

Hope that clears somethings.
