MC500 air tap?

Question:

I purchased one of these. A couple problems. When on, the skimmer cup fills up within 30-45 seconds, as the bubbles are very wet and condense rapidly.  Is there supposed to be a  valve on the air inlet top?  The skimmer cup is near the top, yet it is filling up so fast, I have to turn it off.  What position should the sponge be in?  Any advice would be helpful.

There should be a tap however I suspect that you may have the weir plate in the wrong position.
