[PSUBS-MAILIST] valve ID

[Private via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Hank,

The kind Sean is referring to is recognizable by two little metal pegs in the regulator yoke, and it seals with a rubberized flat washer. Well, although that's the standard one I have to say I've found it to be the least reliable seal ever devised. May I suggest a reg with a CGA-540 instead? You can get pediatric regulators with those on eBay (new) for about $20, and adapters from CGA-540 to NPT are readily available.

Best,

Alec

I can steal one off a medical oxygen tank but I built the sub to take a valve with 1\4 pipe male fitting.  I can't find one because I don't know what it is called?
