Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Adapter for
scuba regulator first stage
I'm hoping some of you guys can help me out
here...
I'm designing and building a 2 man ambient dry sub. I'll
be carrying scuba tanks in the cabin, mostly for emergency or excursion.
For blowing ballast tanks etc., I plan on carring two (large commercial
welding tank size) compressed air cylinders externally.
The cylinders
available in that size have a valve that looks a lot like a faucet. I
want to hook a scuba regulator first stage to this valve. I will need an
adapter to do it.
Is anything like that available? If yes,
where? If not, how hard would it be to design and fabricate such an
adapter? I suspect a CAD would help? Does anybody else need
anything like this?
Feedback please!
