Manifold
Manufacturer *
The manifolds use two barrel o-rings to seal either end of the cross-bar, which provides better shock absorption and redundancy compared to the old-style metal-to-metal seal manifolds. Our 232 bar manifold valves have a 180mm isolation crossbar that fits both 7.25-inch and 8-inch diameter tanks and recessed burst disks are protected from accidental shearing. The 200 DIN manifolds can be converted from DIN to Yoke by using a insert (doughnut) with a 8 mm Allen wrench. Shock absorbing ribbed rubber knobs are rugged, yet easy to manipulate. Manifolds come standard for 3500 psi - 232 Bar service pressures.
TIPS
Right valves versus left valves seems to have a lot of divers confused. Training agencies coined the term right “hand” valve, which was meant to imply a valve that can be reached with the right hand when a diver reaches behind their head with the tank on the back. A “left hand” valve was deemed the opposite. Because all valves are modular, we call all valves with a reverse thread on the crossbar plug a “left valve.” This is easily identifiable by a notch on the plug. The valves with plugs that are not-notched are “right valves.” Most people find it easier just to remember that when facing a valve, if the hand wheel is on the left it is a left valve and if the hand wheel is on the right it is a right valve.
