Hi; I am considering building a mix station, and I would like to avoid making any silly mistakes, so any help in the following would be appreciated. Cost is an issue, but most important is making it safe and reliable. Ok, first, let me come clean and say that all I have now is a fill whip with an analog pressure guage. I know that the majority of people out there use a cascade system, but I am leaning toward using a haskel. I will likely be filling 4 sets of doubles in a week with mix, 2 deco tanks with O2, and 2 with nitrox. Should I use a haskel? If so, what model? I have never seen a haskel (although I did find their web-site, but it had very little information). What is the recommended configuration for the connections between the source gas and the haskel? Do I need 1-way check-valves, or will the haskel itself serve this purpose? What about between the haskel and the Scuba tank? What is the maintenance that is required on a haskel considering the amount of service I mentioned above? Can I do any service myself, or will I have to send it away? I would like to purchase a good quality digital pressure guage. Where can I purchase this? What brand and model number do you recommend? -- Regards, Andy W.
