How to Assemble Scuba Regulators

Показать описание

This video shows you how to easily and safely assemble your diving regulators for standard recreational configurations. It may look complex but with a few basic tools and a little time and patience any one is able to safely put regulators together.

Typically all you will need is an allen key to suit the port plugs on your first stage and a couple of different size spanners (an adjustable will be sufficient it that is all you have. Regulator designs typically fall into one of three first stage layouts which makes it much easier to follow this quick guide and ensure that your regulators are initially configured to standard recreational requirements.

Thanks for the video. That was perfect it answer one of the questions I had. I was adding an octopus and I moved my primary that was in the back to front and the Octopus to the rear. My scuba shop had everything in the back holes. No big deal but it appears the front is better. Thanks

5:39 yes, it is very advisable to connect it to a cylinder before you go diving !!

Is he recommending to pretest fifteen cycles on the reg before each dive or just on new equipment as a commissioning / burn in test?

I recently got certified and got myself a kit but no cylinder.. any ideas on how i can set up my regulators safely so i dont break my equipment?

Some people suggests using lubricants when assembling regulators. Do we really have to?

This was a great video. In My Apeks MTX RC manual they say tighten with 46Nm. Is that what you are doing? 46Nm sounds quite high to me.

Hello guys i need some help.. I am using Aqualung Titan LX requlator and by an accident it got a pretty hard hit on the first stage. I opened them on a shop with a professional but we were not able to find exactly were the damage is. Any way if i buy any other 1st stage from Aqualung or Apeks am i gonna have a problem ? Is it going to be dangerous ?

The plugs have O ring. Do the high and low pressure hoses have O rings on them ?

flatheadfletch

many p How orts are there for first stage .how many low n high pressure ports n which fits in second stage n octopus

cajicoutinho

this is very informative. dummy question - so both regulator and octo need low pressure hoses and BCD / gauge will need high pressure correct?
