Emile, are you are suggesting that the HP hose won't deliver the volume necessary?  A good point, thanks.
Jon

Onderwerp: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] HP Scuba hose  Is there some other way to tap HP off a SCUBA tank other than first stage regulator?  I was thinking of running the HP hose to a manifold that would feed the ballast tanks.  From: Sean T.

Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] HP Scuba hose  HP SCUBA regulator orifice is 7/16-20 UNF 2B thread. There are Swagelok and other fittings which will work, but watch your wrench clearances when using multiple adjacent ports. On that note, LP SCUBA ports are either 3/8-24 UNF - 2B (most common) or 1/2-20 UNF - 2B (less common). Be aware that while most HP SCUBA SPG hoses have a pinhole bore in order to reduce the consequences of a HP hose failure, some SCUBA regulators incorporate the pinhole restriction into the regulator itself, which will limit the available flow rate at high pressure. Of course, if your drawing gas off at high pressure anyway, why go through the reg?
