to fill these tanks on the cascade station do you hook to the screw on port and leave bottle closed? or is their a special adapter

[wrestlemaniac202]

Paintball term for fill port is fill nipple and these tanks need to be hydrostatically tested once every 5 years

Very entertaining....no need to touch, repair, fiddle with, harass, bother, aggravate, taunt or otherwise disturb.. .

[paul9328]

yeah what they do is they connect the air tanks to a series of many larger tanks. from this they use a industriel air compressor to put air into the tanks

who has been through austins fire academy?

[musicman1232]

how r the tanks refilled? do they like have a thing at the station they can fill them with? or do they just replace the whole tank

[Theroofable]

yeah the air compressor looks like an oven/ washing machine and the tanks go into them and get filled with air. the tank comes out of the cradle and you can put a new one in on scene. The trucks cary many extra tanks for this reason.
