THE 3K-5 BAYONET VESSEL 

 

The ignition and burning process is contained within a chamber so that the 

energy  released  can  be  measured  in  the  form  of  heat.    The  Vessel  has 

temperature  sensors  built  into  it,  so  that  the  temperature  rise  can  be 

measured. 

 

Because  of  the  high  pressure  of  oxygen  required  for  combustion,  the 

Vessel is classified as a “Pressure Vessel” and is consequently tested by an 

inspection authority to 10 times its normal pressure.

THE 3K-3 OXYGEN FILLING STATION 

 

The  oxygen  filling  station  is  connected  to  the  oxygen  bottle  via  a 

regulator. The regulator reduces the bottle pressure to 30bar, which 

is  adjustable.  The  regulated  pressure  is  then  supplied  to  the  filling 

station, which shows the supply pressure. Once a vessel is placed in 

the  filling  station  and  the  lever  is  lowered  the  vessel  pressure  is 

indicated and the actual filling progress can be observed. The filling 

speed is adjustable to suit the sample material.
