Station 31 & Station 35 Procedures for fill station with booster pump
Wear hearing protection Booster pump is very loud, hearing protection is required!
Make sure valve on booster pump is turned on. Valve is blue at sta. 35 and yellow at sta. 31 You can leave this valve in the on position at all times. There is no need to turn it off.
We are no longer using the “cascading” principle. Because of the new booster pump you now leave all the banks in the open position. They will self equalize and be automatically refilled by the compressor.
