SINORIX Cylinder Filling
Pump Setup
1. Connect the pump to the agent source
(example of valve for the Bulk 1200 lb cylinders
from DuPont™ below. The blue knob opens the
cylinder to flow vapor only; the red knob opens
the cylinder to flow liquid agent.)
NOTE: Some bulk cylinders and valve knobs
may have been painted, but the
position of the knobs shown in this
picture is the correct orientation.
Figure 23.
2. Connect the liquid line (suction hose) from the
pump to the bulk storage cylinder.
a. Open the Liquid Supply Valve (red knob).
b. Before connecting the manifold to the
cylinder to be filled, purge all air out of the
pump and hoses by opening the Agent
Valve on the fill manifold and the Nitrogen
Valve (without the nitrogen source
connected.) until liquid begins to flow.
Then, close the Nitrogen Valve, and close
the Agent valve.
c. Connect the nitrogen source hose to the
manifold.
Cylinder Setup and Filling
1. Install the filling adapter to the discharge port of
the cylinder.
Figure 24.
a. Before placing the cylinder, reset the scale
to 0.
b. Record the Empty Cylinder Weight.
c. Connect the Fill Manifold to the Fill Adapter.
Figure 25.
d. Press the Tare button on the digital scale.
This will set the display to 0 without
resetting the Gross Weight.
• If not using a digital scale, record the
weight of the cylinder with the Fill
Manifold connected.
e. Verify the amount of agent to be placed in
the cylinder.
• If not using a digital scale, add the
previous weight from (2, d) to the
amount of agent required to determine
the final fill weight.
f. Open the Agent Valve and agent should
begin to flow into the cylinder.
g. Turn on pump (Pump equipment varies,
please refer to your specific pump’s
instructions)
h. Monitor the scale until the cylinder fill
weight reaches the required weight of
agent.
i. Close the Agent Valve and immediately
turn off pump.
j. Verify agent fill weight is correct.
k. Close Liquid Supply Valve on bulk agent
supply cylinder.
l. Open valve on nitrogen source and set the
regulator secondary pressure to approx
450 psi.
m. Open the Nitrogen Valve on the Filling
Manifold until the pressure gauge on the
cylinder reaches 360 psi, then close the
Nitrogen Valve.
