good day I need to replace the zeta purge cover. the shops are telling me that the purge cover are not being made any more. Is there another Oceanic models that will fit? I would hate to throwaway a working 2nd stage because of a purge cover. Looking at all the different models oceanic makes I am hoping that one of there other models will matches up.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
 
You can still find the purge cover (Part number: 5503.07). For example a Swiss shop has them for sale. If you are not picky, you may also have luck searching for the yellow cover (5503.18).
Gearupguide would be another that has them for sale.

I'm sure with a bit of googling you will find a shop that sells these and can ship to you conveniently.

There seems to be a blueprint as well, if you can find someone that can print this for you.

Attached is the schematic.

what I don't understand is how come that instead of asking for our pardon and replace those covers for free , they also don't make replacement for crap parts to be paid for... it's unbelievable how this cover deteriorate just from sitting in the closet.
 
Wow, I wish I had found this before donating my Zeta. I have not been able to find another Reg that was so easy breathing right side up or upside down. I had a DX4 1st stage and it was awesome. I do not purchase Oceanic equipment anymore due to their poor product service and support. I purchased a top-of-line BCD in 2013 that leaked after only one dive. I sent it back under the normal warranty agreement and they said I had damaged the bladder. It's funny because the damage was under a double overlapped seam up near the neckline where the tank support was sealed in place.
