EDS-STR regulator.
The EDS regulator
stabilizer unit is designed
to allow up to six EDS
units to be operated from
a built-in oxygen system
where the pressure is 20
to 125 psig. thus
replacing the standard
issue XCR regulator.
The EDS regulator
has a self-sealing
4mm. outlet for
interconnecting the
EDS unit(s) via the 4
mm. service line.
If the XCR
regulator will
not or can not
be used the
EDS-STR
regulator
should then
be used.

NOTICE
IMPORTANT EDS INLET
PRESSURE NOTICE
If The EDS-D1 unit(s) will not be used with the XCR, XCP, micro-lite
system or EDS-STR regulator the alternate regulator must be able to
deliver a dynamic (flowing) pressure of 1 bar (15 psig. +0.0 - 2.5 psig.)
and a static, no flow, pressure between 1 and 2 bars (15 and 30 psig.)
This is the inlet pressure measured directly at the inlet of an EDS unit
while the valve is open and an EDS cannula is connected to the outlet or
left open. If the above listed pressure specifications are not met the it
may compromise the operation and ability of the EDS-D1 unit(s) to
deliver the correct amount of oxygen at altitudes. Lower that specified
inlet dynamic pressures will result in lower than needed volume of
oxygen pulses. Higher pressures will result in higher than needed
volume of oxygen pulses. Uncalibrated, dysfunctional or undesirable
operation of and/or damage to the EDS unit(s) may result from
operating with dynamic inlet pressures above 2 bars (30 psig). and static
inlet pressures above 3 bars (43 psig.). Inlet pressures above those listed
herein cause the valve to automatically relive inlet pressures through the
outlet, not allowing the EDS unit to detect any inspiration efforts.
