Regulated Pressure Outlet (Optional)
The charging station may also be equipped with an
optional regulated
High
and/or
Low Pressure Outlet
and associated controls. A regulated pressure outlet is
indicated by a regulator, auxiliary air outlet connection,
control valve, and pressure gauge, installed on a separate
control panel established for this purpose.
Always follow all guidelines in this manual regarding
auxiliary air outlet use. Refer to “Working with Compressed
Air” in Chapter 3 before operating the low pressure air
supply.
Regulated High Pressure Outlet and Gauge
The optional high pressure air outlet provides Grade D/E
breathing air up to the maximum system pressure. For
example, if the compressor system air pressure equals
4700 psi, the high pressure outlet will provide compressed
air up to a maximum pressure of 4700 psi.
The high pressure outlet control panel includes an air
outlet, inlet control valve and a 10,000 psi pressure gauge
and outlet pressure regulator. Use the inlet control valve
to regulate the flow of compressed air:
1. Before operating the high pressure outlet and
controls, first ensure that sufficient air pressure
exists in the compressor system to fill the intended
air receiver.
2. Attach a suitable air receiver to the auxiliary outlet
according to the manufacturer’s user instructions
for the air receiver. Use the High Pressure Gauge
to determine existing pressure in the receiver.
3. To access high pressure air, SLOWLY turn the
Variable Pressure Regulator valve.
4. When finished, hand-tighten any bleed valves and
carefully remove the selected air source from the
high pressure outlet.
NEVER use any auxiliary air outlet to charge a
self-contained breathing air (SCBA) cylinder while
the SCBA is being worn unless during an extreme
emergency situation. Persons operating the air
supply and wearing the respirator will be in close
proximity to the cylinder and valve assemblies. If any
of these components fails, there is an increased risk
of serious personal injury or death.
This system is providing unregulated air up to the
maximum system pressure capacity (5000 psi or
6000 psi, depending on system). Use extreme
care with all connections and operation of the high
pressure receiver. Careless handling of compressed
air can cause serious injury or death.

ALWAYS make sure that the auxiliary air outlet is
connected with suitable high pressure hose or piping
to a suitable receiver or apparatus designed to accept
a high pressure air source. Inappropriate use of this
equipment may cause equipment damage or failure,
and can lead to serious personal injury.
