Introduction
To fill a gas spring safely we recommend the use of optionally available optional additional
equipment.
The parts can be ordered from FIBRO GMBH using the indicated order number.
Fig. 1-2 Optional additional equipment
The filling and control fitting (a) is connected via the filling adapter (b) to the filling inlet of the gas
spring.
The filling hose (c) creates the connection between nitrogen outlet of the machine and the filling
and control fitting.
The bottle pressure regulator (e) can be connected between filling hose and nitrogen outlet.
For the assembly a connection adapter (d) for the filling hose and a gas bottle adaptor (f) to con-
nect the nitrogen outlet.
At the bottle pressure regulator a maximum permissible filling pressure gas spring can be ad-
justed. Permanent monitoring of the filling process is not required. A gas spring is protected
against overfilling.
With the retaining plate the machine can be adjusted securely to the nitrogen bottle.

Introduction
1.7 Function
The filling of a gas spring directly from a nitrogen bottle only works if the pressure in the bottle
is higher than the required filling pressure of the gas spring.
The filling of a gas spring with 150 bar is not possible with a bottle pressure of 120 bar. The re-
maining nitrogen in the bottle remains unused or has to be used for other applications.
By using the nitrogen compact booster the entire volume of a nitrogen bottle can be used up the
residual pressure of approx. 30 bar.
The machine works according to the principle of a pressure intensifier. The low inlet pressure of
a nitrogen bottle is increased by continuous and constant piston motion. A high pressure is avail-
able at the outlet of the gas spring.
If using a bottle pressure regulator between nitrogen outlet and filling hose a maximum permis-
sible filling pressure can be set.
The machine is powered with pressurised air. The operating pressure is adjustable.
1.8 Warranty
The guarantee is regulated contractually (see Terms and Conditions or contract)

2.1 Basic safety instructions
Die meisten Unfälle beim Umgang mit technischen Einrichtungen sind auf die Missachtung der
grundlegenden Sicherheitsregeln zurückzuführen.
Erkennen einer möglichen Gefährdung kann einen Unfall vermeiden, bevor dieser eintritt. Sind
Gefährdungen vorhanden, warnen Sicherheitsinformationen an der machine und in diesem Do-
kument vor diesen Gefährdungen. Wenn die Warnungen nicht beachtet werden, kann es zu
Körperverletzungen oder Tod kommen.
