Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster.
I have recently moved and my non-holiday diving will now be in fresh water as opposed to literally every single dive I ever dove. New fauna yay!
I went and bought my very first tanks: dual Steel 12L. Thus far I had been using whatever the diveshops or liveaboards were carrying.
In order to try and guess-timate how much weight I might need in this new configuration I stumbled upon this very nice table of tanks and their full/empty buoyancies. Problem is, I have no clue what my tanks are or if they even are in the table. I'm also completely unfamiliar with the shorthand names people use to discuss tanks such as "HP100" or "AL80".
The tanks have the following stamps, which for the most part I know how to read, but I wouldn't be able to tell they are Steel from these stampings if I weren't the one that bought them.
BREATHING APPARATUS
TS-50/+65°C DIR ZONE
GRUPPE 1 / GROUP 1
M25 D ecs IDG049/IDG029 UT
PS230 PT348BAR 14.7KG 12L 4.0MM
CE 0090 (TU15) 2021/06
They look exactly like these and the closest ones I found would be these (but the weight doesn't match).
What I'm basically asking is, how should I refer to these tanks with fellow divers so they understand me? Are they on the table I linked?
Thank you
