Scuba tank information

[Alvin Slovinsky]

I looked over the tank again and found this information stamped on it as well.
DOT-SAA 2400- 89/ 9044 001 M8303 Faber Italy 07 89+ scubapro.
I want to thank everyone for their advice and knowledge they offered on this tank it’s greatly appreciated.

So it’s a Faber steel I believe. But the last hydro test was in 89?

There was another sticker indicating it was inspected in 2000 but that’s still a long time ago. Definitely going to get it re certified and inspected again before I use it and new air as well. Thanks again for your help.

Looks like the last hydro was done in 08/94 judging from the picture. So it'll definitely need that and a visual inspection. But as long as it checks out, enjoy your new steel tank!

There was an inspector one in 2000 that’s still a longtime ago hopefully it will pass I inspection and I will have a tank to use. Thanks for your input it’s much appreciated.

It’s a Faber scuba tank so I sent Blue scale scuba company an email and they are getting the REE records on it for me. Sounds like a great company to deal with they didn’t have to do this but they offered. Thanks again for everyone’s help it’s Fantastic to have so much advice and information shared.

I thought the same thing last night.

fyi, don't confuse an NASDS Sticker with a Hydro Stamp - they're two different things.

The first means someone unscrewed the valve and looked inside, the second means they blew it up past it's rated pressure then verified the integrity.

The fact that all the stickers are NASDS seems to indicate it's at least a couple decades old. Hope you got it at a good price.

I'm talking about this seemingly random collection of numbers. Not sure what everyone might be referring to.
