Filler Adapter Assembly (includes Male QD Connector) is available from Zeagle. Part Number
330-9420. Note: Fill Adapter DIN connection option for attaching to the HP supply is acceptable The
yoke type (CGA) connector option is limited to a maximum pressure of 232 bar (3364 PSI) and is not
suitable for greater pressure required to fully charge the cylinder.
Do not expose a Yoke type (CGA) Fill Adapter to a pressure greater than 232 bar
(3364 PSI). It is not rated for the higher pressure and could lead to damage exposing the operator to
the risk of serious or death.
Do not
attempt to
fill
the EBS cylinder with
any gas other than clean air
that
conforms to EN12021 or the equivalent CGA Grade E standard. Introduction of other gases including
Enriched Air Nitrox (EAN) is prohibited. Handling of oxygen- enriched air requires specialized
treatment of involved equipment and if not performed properly, could create a hazard with a possible
risk of serious injury or death.
Before connecting the Fill Adapter to the Male QD observe the following information.
When compressed air is introduced into the cylinder heat is generated. The amount of heat is related
to how rapidly the cylinder is filled. In order to prevent overheating the cylinder the fill rate must be
limited.
luminum
cylinders such as that used with the EBS can tolerate a limited amount of heat exposure if
they are well maintained and undamaged, but the presence of heat interferes with reaching the full
volumetric capacity of the cylinder at
207
bar with the cylinder at 21°C (70°F)
If the cylinder is filled to
207
bar at a higher temperature, after filling has stopped and the cylinder cools,
the pressure will reduce and the charge will not be at full capacity. Slow filling is preferred and is
limited to a recommended rate of not greater than 28 bar (400 PSI) per minute. This will greatly reduce
the generation of heat and will require about 11 minutes to reach full capacity.
