pressure inside the camera housing may drop below that pressure. For full protection make sure that the pressure is above
0.2 bar (3 psi) .
1. Set the regulator gauge on the gas cylinder to 0.5 bar (7 psi).
2. Remove the caps from the inlet valve and the pressure relief valve.
3. Place the chuck on the inlet valve and press down to fill the camera with nitrogen.
