Helium Gas Charging Station

About

Helium Re-Charging & Hydrostatic Testing System is a HIGH PRESSURE facility for Decanting, Hydrostatic Testing and Refilling of the Helium Flight Bottles which are accessories to emergency floatation system of the Helicopter. Helium Gas at 400 bar is filled in these bottles of capacity 9 &18 liters and get utilized or vented during emergency landing of the helicopter on water .These Bottles are returned back in empty/vented condition and semi filled /filled (in case of not use) to the Base and where there is need of Recovery of Helium Gas (Decanting), Hydro Testing (1.5x W.P) and refilling the tested bottles with Helium Gas at 400 bar.
