FIELD: equipment for filling the spacecraft engine plants with high density gases.
SUBSTANCE: proposed device includes filling tank and temperature-controlled tank being filled, filling line with check valves, pressure accumulator and heat exchanger with refrigerating unit. Device is also provided with throttle valves, electropneumatic valve and other components. Device is equipped with evacuation line with pressure recorder mounted in it. This line is mounted in parallel with filling line and is connected to it at some points through system of valves. It is also connected with vacuum pump and gas excessive pressure source through system of valves. Device is provided with sampling tank connected to filling line through valve and temperature-controlled container of filling tank equipped with heater and temperature recorder. Temperature-controlled container of tank being filled is connected with pressure source by means of line fitted with heater.
EFFECT: improved quality of filling procedure due to high degree of evacuation of filling line and tanks being filled and due to check of xenon quality.
