The
Nitrogen
Backpack
Servicing
System
The NBSS, NSN 3655-01-559-0617,
provides a backpack harness that has
a high-pressure nitrogen cylinder and
two service kits. The kits are designed
to furnish high- and low-pressure
nitrogen gas for servicing tires, struts,
rotor blades, accumulators and more.
The NBSS also supplies nitrogen for
areas that are not easy to reach with the
nitrogen servicing cart.
For instance, the NBSS
is much more convenient
in rugged terrain where
a cart would be dif±cult
to maneuver. That saves
time and effort. There is
one NBSS included in the
AVUM #3 shelter, NSN
The servicing kit contains
±ttings, valves and connectors
for the GANG to ±ll the nitrogen
cylinders that are used in AGSE
systems. The nitrogen bottle
servicing kit has been issued to
units with the GANG and each
part of the kit can be ordered
separately.
The
Nitrogen
Bottle
Servicing
Kit
Never substitute
components
because that could result in
injury or worse.
To safely operate AGSE nitrogen systems,
use
only
the right pressure valves, fittings,
adapters, hoses and regulators.

complete
list of the kit components,

The
Nitrogen
Cylinders
These cylinders, NSN 8120-01-616-9086, are used to
store pressurized nitrogen produced in bulk by the GANG.
They can be used to ±ll smaller cylinders and are part of
the AVUM (A92) shelter #2, NSN 4920-01-551-7472.
The cylinders can be mounted
on the servicing cart along with
regulators, valves, hoses and ±ttings
to perform various maintenance tasks.
