Scubapro S600 MK25 and HP Steel 3442/236

[tceylan]

After purchasing my first steel tank HP 100 3442 psi (236 bar) yoke, as I was glancing through the user manual of scuba pro S600 mk25, I just read that this yoke regulator can support 230 bar max...

I can't use my S600/mk25 with this tank?

This will probably be fine, especially since you will almost never actually get that tank filled to 3442. Also I'm sure the provide for a wide margin of error, and a few psi won't make a difference.

The problem won't be the pressure, it'll be the physical size of the valve. The SP yoke may not fit on the valve. Just have to try it & see.

Oh, if it does fit be sure to keep some spare O rings stashed in your gear bag. At that pressure you may find you're replacing them more often. A friend of mine does.

Yes, it will work fine.

I don't know why people have a hard time getting their tanks filled to full pressure. I routinely get 3500+ fills in doubles.

Not all compressors can pump to that pressure. You and I are lucky I guess. My LDS will go to 3900 on a hot fill.

Where do you get them filled?

Where do you get them filled?

Aquatic Escapes, United Divers...wherever. Most shops in the area will fill them to capacity.

Why not just convert your MK25 over to din and get a din valve for it.. I bought my adapter for my Apeks XTX-200 for $50 and the valve was $20 from ebay.. Then you dont need to worry about it..

It is funny to read your post. I thought you have traveled quite often here and there.

Every place has a different policy and rule under their roof.
