Abstract

A device for refuelling containers with pressurized gas, comprising a pressurized gas source, a transfer circuit intended to be removably connected to a container, the device comprising a refrigeration system for cooling the gas flowing from the gas source prior to its entering into the container, the refrigeration system comprising a refrigerant cooling loop circuit comprising, arranged in series, a compressor, a condenser section, an expansion valve and an evaporator section, the refrigeration system comprising a cold source in heat exchange with the condenser section and a heat exchanger located in the transfer circuit, the device comprising an electronic controller connected to the expansion valve and configured for controlling cooling power produced by the refrigeration system via the control of the opening of the expansion valve, the device comprising a differential temperature sensor system measuring the difference between the temperature of the refrigerant in the refrigerant cooling loop circuit at the outlet of the heat exchanger and the temperature of the refrigerant in the cooling loop circuit at the inlet of the heat exchanger, the electronic controller being configured for controlling the cooling power produced as a function of this temperature differential.
