AEA 480 BAR Compressor

Have you seen the AEA 480 BAR compressor?


Are guns with higher than 300 BAR fill pressure coming along soon?

When will it end????
Nothing new under the sun is the old saying....They have been using air driven booster pumps for over 50 years at psi in excess of 20,000 psi.. Simple,safe,tested and true...Thats how they pressure test scba tanks... The fireman industry in the usa has compressors and boosters for serviceing the new scott 5.5 tanks at 5500 psi.. I hope AEA compressors are better than there barrels...Id stick with usa for over 4500 psi..
 
When you start getting into pressure exceeding 5000psi you quickly approach specialized fittings, tubes, and materials requiring Autofrettage process to insure design pressure safety.I can forsee very dangerous results for the consumer with Zero legal recourse. Regulation and certification will soon follow killing the PCP industry. God I hope I'm wrong but in today's litigious society.....
