C AUT I ON :
parts of the system, especially the bottle. Excessive heat build up will
result in damage and may lead to fire. Care must be taken not to surpass
the maximum fill rate of 200 psi per minute during filling. If excessive
heating is noticed (the bottle is too hot to hold), reduce fill rate.
7. Open the oxygen supply valve and slowly, at a maximum rate of 200 psi per
minute, fill the bottle to 1850 psi maximum at 70°F (21.1°C).
CA UTI O N :
Due to varying temperatures, it will be necessary to fill the oxygen bottle
using the corrected temperatures presented in the table below.

8. Turn the Master Switch and OCCD ON.
9. Verify that the Quantity indicator on the OCCD matches the amount on the
gauge at the bottle/regulator assembly.
10. Turn the OCCD and Master Switch OFF.
CA UTI O N :
discharged prior to disconnecting from fill port.
11. Slowly loosen the oxygen supply line nut at the fill port until pressure
begins to bleed. Use a back-up wrench to support the filler port when
disconnecting the line. Allow pressure to completely bleed down before
disconnecting oxygen supply line from the fill port.
12. Disconnect the oxygen supply line from the fill port.
13. Refit the cap to the fill port using a back-up wrench to ensure that the tank
fitting doesn't rotate.
14. Reinstall the aft bulkhead panel in the tailcone.
