**When filling 4500 psi SCBAs from a 4500 psi storage bank, you will never get a totally filled cylinder. Several will be within the 80% range
NOTE 1: These numbers are based on the small cylinders having been depleted down to their alarm or reserve pressure, and on using
the cascade method of refilling.
NOTE 2: The use of an air-powered booster pump will increase the number of refills significantly, up to 50% more.
