Fill StationsThis is a commercially available fill station manufactured for paintball enthusiasts.

Page 6: The Safe Transfer of Pressurized Gas

Fill StationsThis is a custom built fill station fabricated by a local welding supply company from off the shelf parts.

Note: All parts rated at 3000 psi

Prevent Serious Accidents

Always Secure High Pressure Storage Bottles to Rigid Structures

A Busted Valve Will Turn This Tank Into a Rocket Capable of Piercing the Wall of a Building.

Respect the Quick Connect

Make certain the connection is secure and the male and female ends have engaged.

Test the connection by tugging on the tank
