Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007115734A1] The method according to the invention for filling at least one compressed gas tank (8) with at least one gas, wherein a reference pressure gas tank (9) is formed in which a measurement can take place of at least one measurement variable which is relevant for the state in the reference pressure gas tank (9), wherein the compressed gas tank (8) and reference pressure gas tank (9) are flow-connected at least at times, wherein each compressed gas tank (8) and the reference pressure gas tank (9) have in each case one opening through which a gas can be filled and extracted, wherein in a filling process, at least one gas is filled through the opening into the at least one compressed gas tank (8) and at least at times into the reference pressure gas tank (9), is characterized in that a measuring sensor (4, 5) is inserted through the opening into the reference pressure gas tank, and at least one measurement variable is measured by means of said measuring sensor at least during a part of the filling process. The method according to the invention advantageously permits the production of highly accurate gas mixtures. Here, the connector (1) according to the invention can particularly advantageously be used to form a reference pressure gas tank (9) from a conventional compressed gas tank (8) such as for example a compressed gas cylinder. Measuring sensors (4) for determining the temperature and measuring sensors (5) for determining the pressure, and here in particular capacitive pressure pick-ups, have been proven to be particularly advantageous as measuring sensors.
