7 COMPRESSED AIR CYLINDER
The standard compressed air cylinder of the LP500 air pistol is made of carbon-aluminum
composite and approved for compressed air with max. 200 bar. It is screwed onto the pressure
reducer and can be removed, filled or exchanged at any time (see Section 3.2.5). If handled
improperly, the compressed air cylinder can burst and severely injure people in the direct
vicinity. Always observe the safety instructions in Section 7.1 (assembly / dismantling, filling,
emptying, storing) when handling compressed air cylinders.
7.1 Safety instructions for handling compressed air cylinders
• The compressed air cylinder has a maximum service life of 10 years.
• In contrast to aluminum compressed air cylinders, cylinders made of carbon-fiber-reinforced
plastic (CFRP) can be retested by the manufacturer after 10 years. If no defects are dis covered,
the service life can be extended a single time for another 10 years. Thus a total maximum
service life of 20 years is possible. The permissible service life is shown on the cylinder.
• Empty the compressed air cylinder upon expiration of the maximum service life according to the
instruction manual (see Section 6.4) and dispose of it properly.
• Never exceed the maximum filling pressure of 200 bar. The filling pressure of the compressed air
cylinder filling device must never be higher than the maximum filling pressure of the compressed
air cylinder. Use a suitable pressure reduction valve when filling.
• Do not subject the compressed air cylinder to temperatures below –20 °C or over +50 °C
(bursting hazard otherwise!).
• Only use the original WALTHER compressed air cylinder with the corresponding adapter.
• Always observe the legal regulations in your country regarding refilling.
• Do not refill leaky and/or otherwise unsafe compressed air cylinders. Please empty safely.
• Do not use force or tools when attaching or removing the compressed air cylinder.
• Do not drop the compressed air cylinder.
• Do not label, write on, scratch, adhere stickers to or otherwise alter the compressed air cylinder.
• Empty and properly dispose of leaky or damaged compressed air cylinders according to the
instruction manual.
• Only completely emptied compressed air cylinders may be transported in aircraft or sent through
the mail.
• Only allow repairs to the compressed air cylinder to be made by the manufacturer using original
replacement parts. Any liability or warranty is void otherwise.
• Do not manipulate the surface of the compressed air cylinder. Do not engrave or perform other
abrasive procedures since this can lead to damage to the compressed air cylinder and, therefore,
represents a safety risk.
• Inspect the compressed air cylinder for tears or damage before each use.
• Protect the compressed air cylinder against any type of force.
