Syetem Operation
  

High-pressure nitrogen contained in the cylinder(s) is 
reduced by the adjustable regulator (included with NS-
Pak) to a recommended setting of 100 psi (6.9 bar). The 
high-pressure regulator supplies a field adjustable System 
Pressure Regulator in the NS-Pak controlling pressure 
to the system. As the cylinder pressure depletes below 
90 psi (6.2 bar), the Inlet Pressure Switch activates to 
indicate low nitrogen pressure and notify the owner that 
the nitrogen supply requires servicing. The field adjustable 
System Pressure Switch switch is factory preset to signal 
low system pressure at approximately 13 psi (0.9 bar).
