diving regulator

They were the first modern diving regulators to be made.

The company introduced the world's first titanium diving regulator in January 1997.

This class of equipment is now commonly referred to as a diving regulator or demand valve.

It provides gas to the scuba diver through the demand valve of a diving regulator.

When underwater, the occupants breathe air carried in the vehicle through scuba-style diving regulators.

For the history of the diving regulator, see Timeline of diving technology.

A pony bottle is an example of a bailout cylinder which has a standard diving regulator with first and second stages.

A diving regulator suitable for cold-water is used.

See the diving cylinder and diving regulator articles for more details of the configurations.

Most contemporary diving regulators are single hose two-stage regulators.

Many divers fit a second demand valve, often called an "octopus", to their diving regulators, for emergency use by another diver.

Low water temperatures make it necessary for divers to wear diving suits and can cause problems such as freezing of diving regulators.

The effects are sudden convulsions and unconsciousness, during which victims can lose their Diving regulator and drown.

Common configurations of diving cylinders and diving regulators used as a backup or reserve for emergencies include:

The purge button is the part of a diving regulator that may be depressed manually to force the regulator to deliver air.

They had a passion for diving, and developed the diving regulator with the aid of the engineer Émile Gagnan.

The invention of the modern diving regulator became possible after Cousteau met engineer Émile Gagnan.

The swimmer uses swimfins, a diving mask, weights, and diving regulator as in scuba diving.

A diving regulator is a device that reduces the high pressure in a diving cylinder to the same pressure as the scuba diver's surroundings.

Cousteau requested Gagnan to adapt his new own regulator to diving and both men patented in 1943 the first modern diving regulator.

They are an essential part of scuba diving equipment, used to deliver pressurised air from the first stage of a diving regulator to the other components.

Bodok seals are also used in emergency oxygen kits used in scuba diving, but diving regulators used underwater generally use a conventional o-ring seal.

Most modern open-circuit scuba sets have a diving regulator consisting of a first-stage pressure-reducing valve connected to the diving cylinder's output valve or manifold.

To monitor breathing gas pressure in the diving cylinder, a diving regulator usually has a high pressure hose leading to a contents gauge (also called pressure gauge).
