more complete Dacor Regulator Manual

[Let us dive to live..]

Sir, I appreciate your posting all this infor. on the DACOR regs. I specifically need a link to get to the "Dacor Regs Vol 2, 1st stages Pt 1, 1993 (10 megs)" as I have a DACOR 950. I bought a used 950 on the internet and the 1st Stage is pushing out 200psi which is blowing air right past the 2nd stage. I am certain that I need a 1st Stage repair kit. That along with the technical specs for fixing the reg takes me 'out of the dark' sort of speak. I sincerely thank you for your time -in advance- and for sending it to my email which is: robertugan@yahoo.com.

If you need any of the other Dacor manuals below (without a URL), PM me an email address and request/specify what you need.

To summarize what I have, their contents, and where a couple of them are on the web:

Though I'm not answering what you need, here is a nice video of the steps to assembling a Dacor 950 1st stage.

Parts for the 900 series are hard to come by, to my knowledge no one is making replacement parts for them. In addition, the 950 had 3 different HP seats along with several parts that go with each seat. You CAN NOT swap between the seats unless you also replace the other parts which will be even harder to find than a seat. The only up side is all of the orings are common sizes so they are easy to find. Unfortunately, your best bet for the 950 is to make a decoration out of it. Dacor made good regs but with the sale of the company, all the regs are now pretty much useless as parts become harder to find. That said, some of the second stages are very good and use generic parts so they are still servicable.

Was told, and then confirmed that VDH no longer allows downloading old manuals and catalogs, although they can still be viewed. I can only speculate about rationale.


Feel free to PM me.

 

[knotical]

I notice they are now downloadable at: CG-45 - Downloads /downloads/Manuals/DACOR/

 

[ERV]

Thank you for the link knotical.

Anyone has or knows where to get the full 2001 version of the manual? I can only get the full 1999 version and the pages that changed in 2002 from the 2001 version, but the 2001 full version is missing everywhere I looked.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
ERV

Is this of any help? - they list one Dacor manual. Regulator Manuals

 

[ERV]

Thank you for the reply and the link. It is, however, the new pages from the 2002 volume 3 update.
I am starting to believe that the full 2001 version is not available anywhere.
Thank you again.

Cheers,
E
