300 Bar PCP Air Gun Charging Cylinders
A 300 bar air gun charging cylinder provides a convenient supply of compressed air for filling compatible pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifles and air pistols.
At Sussex Diving in Selsey, we supply high-pressure air cylinders and provide filling, inspection and testing services for suitable air gun charging equipment.
Whether you're looking for a compact cylinder that's easy to transport or a larger cylinder offering more fills between visits, our experienced team can help you choose a suitable setup.
Why Choose a 300 Bar Charging Cylinder?
300 bar charging cylinders are designed to store compressed air at a higher pressure than conventional 232 bar cylinders.
This can provide a useful reserve of high-pressure air, allowing compatible PCP equipment to be charged repeatedly before the cylinder needs refilling.
The number of fills available depends on the cylinder capacity, the charging pressure required by your air gun and the pressure remaining in the charging cylinder.
Choosing the Right Cylinder Size
Air gun charging cylinders are available in different capacities to suit individual requirements.
Smaller cylinders are easier to transport and store, making them a practical choice for occasional use or customers who regularly visit a filling station.
Larger cylinders provide greater air storage capacity, potentially allowing more PCP charges between refills.
When choosing a cylinder, consider how frequently you use your air gun, its charging pressure, the cylinder's weight and how easily you can transport it.
Dedicated PCP Charging Valves
Air gun charging cylinders are normally fitted with purpose-designed charging valves rather than conventional scuba diving cylinder valves.
These assemblies commonly incorporate a pressure gauge, a controlled charging valve and a bleed valve to release pressure from the charging connection after use.
The correct charging hose, fittings and pressure ratings are essential for compatibility with your PCP equipment.
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and never exceed the specified charging pressure of your air gun.

Cylinder Inspection & Testing
Like diving cylinders, air gun charging cylinders require appropriate inspection, maintenance and periodic testing.
