| At 8:30 a.m. on April 6, 2017, an employee responded when an aircraft pilot requ ested assistance with inflating a tire on a Cessna 210N (N6330C) to manufacture' s recommended pressure. The employee grabbed a mobile cart that had a nitrogen a ir/gas compressed cylinder secured to it. In addition, this compressed cylinder had a series of components connected to it such as: a pressure regulator, steel braded hose, a flow control valve, a gauge, a smaller/shorter hose and a threade d Schrader valve. The employee attached the Schrader valve by threading it into the stem valve of the tire. He then proceeded to open the main valve on the comp ressed cylinder and then checked the gauge located between the flow control valv e and Schrader valve. As the employee was inflating the tire with compressed nit rogen air/gas, he asked the aircraft pilot what the recommended pressure was. Be fore the pilot can answer him (55 p.s.i.), the over-pressurized tire burst. The employee received multiple fractures to his arm. | ||||||
