A regulator for diving controls the level of the diver's breath gas. While this is most commonly the case, a regulator can also control pressures for other gases used during diving. A regulator that controls diving pressures can also be called an alternative second stage. The cylinder containing the regulator is attached to the diver's tank. To keep the diver comfortable underwater, he will be able to breathe through it.
Scuba regulators
Scuba regulators form an integral part to a scuba divers system. They regulate how much air is delivered to the diver to allow them to breathe easily and comfortably. They can also control the airflow under water. The regulator also features a purge button, which allows the diver to empty the chamber of water and discharge a stream of air if an emergency arises.
Alternate second stage
The primary stage and the second stage are the two main parts of a regulator for divers. The primary stage provides air for the diver and the secondary stage replenishes that air. The alternate stage can be either a cheaper or lower-performing model. It serves the same purpose but is not quite as effective.
Balanced regulator
The balanced dive regulator is an efficient and versatile scuba diving regulator. It delivers oxygen to the diver quickly and efficiently. Its progressive design and quality materials make it an excellent choice for any dive environment.
DIN valves
When choosing a dive resiver, the first thing to look at is the type of valve. Typically, you will find two different types: Yoke valves and DIN valves. A Yoke-valve has an O ring that fits into the tank's first stage valve. A DIN valve on the other side has an O-ring which fits into a first stage threaded connection.
Swivel joint hose adaptor
Divers can use a swivel joint adaptor for their dive regulator as a versatile accessory. It helps you route the regulator hose naturally and reduces jaw strain. It allows you and your buddy to share air. These accessories are easy to use and must be rinsed after every dive.
Regulators with environmental seals
There are many options available if you're in search of an environmentally sealed regulator. These devices offer a variety of benefits, which make them an excellent choice for divers who are able to dive in freezing water. You can make them corrosion-resistant by using zirconium as an alternative to brass. In addition, many of these products feature a factory fitted environmental seal and a large purge button. Some even come with a limited lifetime warranty.
