Packing: The Filling Heads are individually packed in boxes without instructions.

Function and The Filling Head is easy to operate.

Maintenance: The head outlet is attached to the valve inlet manually. Once the pneumatic pressure is applied to the head it

forces the internal components of the head to move towards the valve top thereby establishing a leaktight

connection and once this is established the further movement of the components forces the valve spindle to open

and simultaneoulsly the gas starts to flow. When the cylinder is full the filling is stopped by removing the

pneumatic pressure. The internal springs of the head allows the valve to close and moves the components of the

head bakwards to stop the flow of gas and to disconnect the head from the valve. The head is removed manually.

Suitable for: All compact ø valves outlets. Specify type of compact valve when ordering.

MATERIALS AND STANDARDS
