Read this manual carefully before using this
equipment!
The illustrations contained in this manual
are for illustration use only and should not
be regarded as a guide to dismantling or
repairing your regulator.
Your regulator should only be serviced,
repaired or dismantled by an authorised
service agent.
This is not a Diving Manual. Before using the
regulator or any other SCUBA diving equip-
ment, you should obtain training and certifica-
tion from a certified diving instructor.
The use of a diving equipment by a non certi-
fied diver is dangerous and can lead to serious
accidents or death.
This diving regulator has been certified accor-
ding to the CEN Standard EN 250 which pro-
vides a long series of functional tests up to a
maximum depth of 50 Mt. and at a temperature
of 4° Celsius.
This diving regulator has been designed to be
used with normal atmospheric air complying
with the specifications of the CEN Standard
EN 132. Do not use this or any other SEAC
SUB product with other gases or oxygen enri-
ched air mixtures (usually known as
NITROX).
Failure to follow this recommendation could
cause a serious accident or death, due to fire or
explosions, or seriously damage your equip-
ment.
If you have no experience in the use of this
equipment we suggest that you familiarise
yourself with its functions through training
dives at shallow depth and in favourable condi-
tions. Alternatively ask for a refresher course
from a certified diving instructor.
This SEAC SUB regulator has been designed
and manufactured to provide you with reliabe
performance over a long period of time.
Improper use and maintenance of your
regulator could seriously impair its perfor-
mance.
SEAC SUB will not accept any responsibility
with respect to any problem due to failure to
follow the recommendations provided by this
manual.
In case of any problem please contact an
authorised SEAC SUB dealer or in case of dif-
ficulty contact SEAC SUB. Note: All service
or maintenance of your regulator should be
performed by a SEAC SUB authorised service
center.
SEAC SUB regulators have been developed
via a research program conducted in close co-
operation with professional divers. The innova-
tive design will give you good performance
and reliability over a large number of dives
whilst allowing for cost effective maintenance.
SORIUS 1000 REGULATOR - FIRST STAGE
The SEAC SUB SORIUS 1000 1st stage entry
model, benefits from its lightness and ease of
maintenance. Its performance, (although not as
high as other SEAC SUB first stages) surpas-
ses the existing standard specifications and
allows you to perform and enjoy any sports
dive.
It's working concept is based on a piston sli-
ding in a turned bore, manufactured from a sin-
gle block brass body which is protected by
three layers of electro-galvanic metal coating
having a thickness of 12 to 15 microns (copper
7 micron, nickel 5 micron, chrome 1 micron).
The internal component parts are in
chrome/nickel coated brass, the springs in
stainless steel and the seals are made of nitryl
rubber.
Four low pressure ports, provided with 3/8”
thread, supply an intermediate pressure of
about 10.2 bars; the high pressure port is provi-
ded with a 7/16” thread and a flow reduction
hole of 0.20 mm diam. This high pressure port
is used to connect a diving pressure gauge by
means of a hose provided with a 7/16” male
connection.
