Tire Inflation Procedures

Hello All!

I visited today a company that specializes in aircraft tire maintenance - actually they are a customer of mine. They mainatain and inflate aircraft tyres mainly for B-737, A-320, B-757 and RJ.

They currently use Nitrogen in 10m3 cylinder and they want to start using a Nitrogen generator. We discussed the issues of providing sufficient pressure for the 24 hour test etc.. As a side note they are currently passing the evaluation by JAA so I assume they are serious.

My question for those familiar with these kind of procedure what do you use tanks or Nitrogen generator? I am most intreseted if you are working outside the airport but any contribution would be most welcome. Procedure equipment used capacities of cylinders or nitrogen generator....


I like to help them not because they are my customers but because it is my only aviation related customer.
