Good deal, especially if you fill yourself.

I bought one. Nice!! Dated 9/20

 

[Cousin Vinny]

I grabbed one the first time they went on sale this cheap, great deal.

 

[RWSx3]

Curious as to "will this need to be hydro-tested prior to fill" ? OR does DOM 2020 allow for fill un- tested until 2025? Logic would say since new it should be tested at manufacture time. A good price either way.

 

[Cousin Vinny]

It would need to be hydrod 5 years after the birthdate, so in 2025.

This is a great deal especially considering you can now extend a tanks service life to 30 years using Hexagon Digital Wave's ultrasonic testing method.

Thinking about pulling the trigger. Have compressor and dive shop to fill.

Based on a 180cc to 400cc reservoir on PCP's, I finding I'll get quite a bit of refills. Some of the math out on the webs is deceiving.
Anyone have an estimate as to how many fills one would get on a 200cc gun? Say 3000psi? Roughly.

Nice, thanks for that!... for my set up I can get about 25 fills... pulling the trigger on a tank.

I happened to stumble upon this deal and it was too hard to pass up. It should make a great first tank.

 

[UCChris]

Sick of driving two hours to fill my 100 ci Guppy tank every four fills. Snagged one, good looking out!

 

[RWSx3]

I snagged one of these also, as my Scott scba tank hits its' 15yr lifespan later this year. Yes... a decent deal for sure on these tanks.
Though....! in my attempt to get it filled at my usual fire equipment dealer filling place, they could not fill due to the style of valve (AV Jubilee)
So I'm asking anyone, where do you get yours filled? It appears to need some type of 7/8" x 3/4" double male fitting. I have a JB -AirTanksForSale fill adapter for my Scott and would like to continue using that if possible.
Thanks for any insight on this. I'm editing the thread size to 7/8" double male.

 

[UCChris]

Similar question to RWSx3, does anyone know if the valve threads for these types of tanks are standardized? I'd like to use the nice fill system I have on my AirTanksForSale Guppy tank on this AV tank.

A thread about extended life tanks seems its cost prohibited

Extendable tank life up to 15 years beyond current expiry?

I had heard about this "Life Extension" for SCBA tanks, yet was too busy to track anything down and it seemed that some of the leads from Google were not good. So, I retried and just found this information, but have yet to call and verify the cost and if in fact this is doable. Just throwing...

Looking at these AV tanks, I'm confused on how you would fill them. Do you use a male to male foster adapter and fill through the hose?

I haven't actually done any homework on the pricing since it isn't something I'll be needing any time soon. I'm hopeful though as the testing machines continue to be sold more shops and vendors are able to offer this service therefore bringing the cost down.

I'm looking for the same answer. Have a tank inbound and compressor at home to fill. Looking through some searches, one site states a male-to-male foster adaptor will work.

The Stickman valve shown in video will actually let you plug the compressor into the valve itself.


Is there a "better" or "recommended" way to fill my tank? Appreciate the input.

That’s how I fill my 100 cu in AV tank.

 

[UCChris]

Dumb question, but it appears that I have misplaces my soft measuring tape. Can anyone give me the diameter of the 74cu tank?

Hmm how is this different from what is on there unless it is a different size quick disconnect.


It appears that this has a din300 i would assume a female din 300?

The AirTanksForSale tank Should also have a 300 din valve.

If the info is correct it states it is 7 inches in diameter which should be 3.5 inches radius which should equate to 21.99 inch circumference?

@GA_LeadHead I fill my tank using a male DIN300 fitting coming off of a compressor fill assembly. To do so I unscrew and remove the fill whip from the AV SCBA tank and screw in the male DIN300 fitting.
