Subject: 300 bar DIN iso manifold source in UK?
Date: Fri, 7 Mar 1997 17:38:14 -0000
Any Brits on the list know a source for a decent 300 bar DIN isolator
manifold 
in the UK? Options so far discounted include:

Scubapro - only have the 200 bar version over here, no idea why, but that's

straight from the horses mouth.

Apex - close, but no cigar. Only uses a single barrel ring to seal the
cross 
tube to the valve. To their credit, they offered to make me a special FOC
(great 
service by the way) but when we looked into it there's no space without
loosing 
all the adjustment.

MDE - Looks like I made it myself in my garage, three piece cross tube and
what 
looks like (from the primitive working drawing they sent me) face rings for
the 
seals (as opposed to the correct barrel rings).

Dive Rite - Sea & Sea say they're STILL (after about 6 months) waiting for
the 
300 bar manifold to get CE approval.

I have it in mind that the Dive Rite and/or Scubapro and/or Sea Elite (UK 
source?) are of European origin anyway, but couldn't find the exact
reference in 
the archives. Can anyone help?

Before anyone asks, no the tanks aren't high pressure and yes I know that
single 
barrel rings _rarely_ fail. Lets not have that conversation.

Thanks & Regards
