repressurize
Seal and pump
To repressurize is to restore pressure to something that has lost it—typically an aircraft cabin, spacecraft, or sealed container.
After a depressurization event, the crew works to repressurize the compartment.
The word applies to any system where maintaining pressure is critical: The divers waited while technicians repressurized the chamber.
