This cylinder comes with a Residual pressure valve! – Why?
Gas cylinders should not be emptied completely, but with a residual pressure of 2-3 bar returned for (re)filling. This residual pressure makes sure that no moisture or dirt gets into the interior of the oxygen bottle. Compressed gas cylinders are often completely emptied by forgetting to close the cylinder valve. The result is that the conditioning is destroyed by the penetration of (wet) air. The compressed gas cylinder must then undergo a complicated and costly hydrostatic test. Residual pressure valves close when falling below a certain tank pressure (for example, 5-6 bar).
- Professional O2 filling stations usually have the option of filling an O2 cylinder with this residual pressure valve.
- An adapter for the residual pressure valve is available if you want to fill it yourself, or you can remove the residual pressure valve using pliers.
