Alternative HPA fill method??

[Ratt]

I am stationed on a ship, and we have SCBA's for firefighting, as well as installed fill stations throughout the ship. I am trying to figure out a way to fill my HPA tanks, using the fill station for the SCBA. Anyone know of an adapter I can use?

I am a firefighter as well. I have been looking for an adapter for a couple of years, but have not come across one yet. The closest I found was an adapter to go from SCBA to scuba.

EDIT: sorry i missed the difference between SCBA and scuba, my fault, maybe that SCBA to scuba adaptor and then one of these^ what are the fittings on the SCBA, i have never seen one and can seem to find a good pic of the head.

upon further searching i found this

find out what threads that is and then neck it down with adaptors, just put a High pressure valve(ball valve would be best), then a gauge, like in a 3way fitting, and then down to 1/8 NPT then a quick disconnect, to your bottle. it wont be pretty but it will work.

I am not sure what kind of fittings the SCBA use. I have done searches on Google for a SCBA-to-HPA adapter, but I don't even know what the noun name is for the fittings on an HPA bottle. I do have a Cat 5 adapter (the one that lets you fill your HPA from a scuba tank). I may have to buy the SCBA-to-Scuba, and hook that up to my Cat 5 adapter.

PM akscubainst here on the boards
He made one up for me, works great.
Be warned, these things are not cheap.
With 4.5k psi running through them would you want them to be?
