Valves to a fill station panel

[TI1976]

Hi
I`m planning to build a new fill station panel from my 300bar air bank with 2 fill whips, one 230bar and one 300bar (pressure regulator between). What type and brands of valves can you recommend ? Lever valves or needle valves ?

Neither ball nor needle. Most people use the same type valves as scuba cylinders, a brass plug with nylon HP seat type.
Scuba Compressor

If you download the PDF from Undersea, Undersea Ltd - Serving the diving industry since 1970 that will help you with some of your questions & their gear is pretty good.
Another site to look at is MDE these valves I use.. Midland Diving Equipment Ltd

Rjack is right, mostly we use the Sherwood panel valves, but the ones with the thread an nuts for panel mounting if you are going to put a fancy stainless cover on your panel: Scuba Compressor

Oxygen, however for partial pressure filling through your panel should be a needle valve, Hoke, Parker and Swagelok make suitably clean versions with PTFE or FKM seats.
