Morini cocking lever lock engaging after 100 shots

[David Levene]

: 300bar on the decal stuck on the tank (the 162e has no gauge). I think as David Levene has pointed out, the older 162e model can take 300 bar, while the current 162ei only goes to 200.
Please note thatI was not suggesting that the 162E could be pumped up to 300 bar, just that the cylinder may have been marked differently.
If it is marked at 300 bar then I suspect that this is the test pressure, not the working pressure. I would be VERY worried about taking a Morini cylinder that high.

I have a Morini 162E (in the manual, in one place it says CM 162EA), serial 150XX. It has two removable, blue cylinders. They are both marked PMAX: 300 Bar / 4351 psi. The manual, says: Quote The air pressure cannot exceed 300 bar/4352 psi. end quote.
Can someone get an answer from the factory?
I do not fill above 3000 psi/ 200 bar.

The cylinders are marked 200 bar working pressure but they are international tested at 1.5x the working pressure. This means that to be approved for 200 bar they are tested at 300. For cylinders like Walther that are for 300 bar working pressure they have to be tested at 450 bar (1.5x).Because of difference in temperature you can fill the cylinders in a range between 200 and 230 bar because after when they cool down the pressure will also go down.
