Drager SCBA bottles

[cwhubbard]

Hello
I scored a 60 min Drager bottle off ebay. It comes with a DIN 300 valve. Anyone on here have one of these bottles that is still using original valve to fill air rifles? if not, what are you using in its place?
Thanks
Cliff

Congratulations on a sweet tank, I believe that dräger has DIN 300 as standard. Most European tanks do, especially the once used in diving. No rules without exceptions, I believe in south Europe they sometimes use the cheaper guppy system cause of price and temperature.

You should be able to just use a fill assembly like this one...it will get you from DIN to a male foster. If you have some other fill on the gun then you will need a fill probe with an adapter to get you to Male QC foster.

Thanks for all the replys thus far! My question is not about fill station, but valve that comes with. Can you dial in the valve that comes with it such that i dont blow up my rifle?

The valve is very easy to use. No need to worry about if your going to let too much air out, it's a pretty precision valve, you could crack it open to take half a day to fill your gun.
Here is what I use, nice long hose and a great price point.

What a deal on 60min SCBA tank. Just ordered one only had 4 left. Can't afford brand new. Just need to get a fill adapter now and sell my 100cf 3300psi SCUBA.
