Abstract: A fluid charging system for charging each of a succession of components with a weight of a fluid, each of the components being charged with a respective selected fluid weight selected from a plurality of fluid weights, the fluid charging system including a scale for weighing each of the components and for generating weight signals indicative of the weight of each of the components, an identification mechanism for generating identification signals identifying each of the components, a pumping system for charging each of the components with the respective selected fluid weight by delivering the respective selected fluid weights to the components, and a digital processing mechanism for receiving the weight signals and the identification signals, for determining the respective selected fluid weight for each of the components from the plurality of fluid weights, and for actuating the pumping system to thereby cause the pumping system to deliver the respective selected fluid weights to the components.
