Hello there.
I have a little problem with the set up of the Piston Valve.
The problem is that i loose all the pressure every shot.
how can i avoid that and have multiple shots from my air tank????
Thank you.

You would need two different tanks to do that and they would have to have ball valves on them to let the air into the piston.

You would need a large air source tank and a smallish air chamber. A 3-way DCV or multiple ball valves would be needed to pilot it.

That's not a problem. That's a feature.
If you don't want to dump all the air, don't use a piston valve.

... or use a piston valve, but use a momentary pilot valve like a hammer valve.
