Section II. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION

1-7. EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS, CAPABILITIES AND FEATURES

a. Characteristics. The Carbon Dioxide Recharging Unit (hereafter referred to as "recharging unit"), is used to fill

small Carbon Dioxide cylinders such as C0 2 fire extinguishers.

b. Capabilities and Features. The recharging unit is a self contained unit which consists of the main skid assembly

and an accessory demountable tilt rack to hold and to invert the supply cylinder during filling (recharging) procedures.

The main skid assembly incorporates a positive-displacement, belt- driven pump and an electrical drive motor with its

associated electrical starter box and wiring. The main skid also contains all necessary plumbing and controls to connect

to the small cylinders and perform the filling operation.

1-8. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MODELS

The difference between models is in the pump motor. Each model had a different motor installed at the factory. The

motors are interchangeable but their component parts are not.
