Default AMS-500 With TT and 2 Gates

Just wanted to run this past some of you who may have plumbed this setup. I created a visio flow chart for how I plan to run my setup. Does this look right?

no need to use the vacuum provision on the bottom of the gate. That can vent to atmosphere. If you use that provision in your drawing you'll never be able to make more than double your gate spring. I assume your planning on making some big power being your using co2. You could more than double your spring using C02 but you would go threw a lot of it depending on what your using your set up for. This is my opinion from my own experience using the AMS 500

not sure what that guy is talking about. That is exactly how I have mine setup & I have no problem making more than double spring pressure.

Use the lower refrence to the compressor, do not just vent it to atmosphere

I have had it both ways and I see better more stable control using the lower refrence
