The O2 is identical. I have to get customers avtanks filled all the time. The difference is in tank certification and regulator cetification. Tanks carry a TSO for certian regulator use. No service will fill the tank with the wrong regulator installed. Even if the regulator is TSO'd it must be TSO'd for that tank.
Medical tanks use different regulators and are not TSO'd for flight use. David Mikesell 23597 N.
