A charging system for a hydraulic hammer is disclosed. The charging system includes a charge plug. The charge plug is disposed on an opening defined in the wall housing connected to the top end of the power cell of a hammer. The charge plug is fluidly communicated to the chamber via a conduit. The charge plug includes a first compartment. The first compartment is configured to receive a first chemical substance. The charge plug also includes a second compartment. The second compartment is configured to receive a second chemical substance. The first compartment and the second compartment are covered by a membrane. A pressure difference causes collapsing of the membrane to allow the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance is allowed to react with each other. The reaction of the first chemical substance and the second chemical substance pressurizes the air within the chamber to a desired pressure.
